Biblical and Cultural Concepts of Marriage and Family Life

Rev. Dr. Ralph W. Huling

​

In these changing times when more than half of all marriages are ending in divorce, this book offers God’s blueprint for marriage and how to have a happy, fulfilling marriage. God can take a marriage that appears headed off course and redirect the course of that marriage for smooth sailing. Dr. Huling offers wonderful solutions to marriage and family life problems. The family is the most important institution in society and in the Christian domain. It is the most important because it is the first ordained institution that was created by God at the very inception of time. In this book, we will outline and define the Biblical concepts that insure that the family is maintained and sustained in the manner in which it was originally intended.

In order to fully present this information, it is imperative that we understand the marriage has to be in accordance with God’s word before it can be expanded into a solid family base. Husband and wife must be well aware of their roles and commitments to each other, before they can become the strong parents needed to raise children in today’s society.

Satan today is making constant attacks on the family; however, his strongest attacks are coming at Christian children and adolescents. His darts can be lethal if the parents are not familiar with his wiles and prepared to battle him with the Word of God as their most powerful weapon. By attacking children, the enemy can cause dissension in a home where parental authority, guidance and discipline has not already been defined.

We seek to present information critical to insuring that the Christian family understands that they are called by God and set apart from the world to reflect the love of Christ by loving each other in a spirit-filled Godly manner. When this is done, truly, ……no weapon formed against them shall prosper.
