Marriage...sanctity or institution?

Question

I mean is it a religious sacred thing or a partnership like a business...after the initial drama wears off and life together begins.

Answer 1

Anything that requires you to get a license from the state is a state institution. Pastors, priests, rabbis, imams, etc. are LICENSED by the state to perform marriages on their behalf, as are Justices of the Peace and Judges. Any religious significance is applied by the religious institution and vary accordingly.

Marriages impact within the religious institution varies significantly, but from a governmental level, there are over 1100 federal laws and regulations that refer to marital status in their implimentation. On the state and local level these rise even higher. Clearly, the state's interest in marriage as a contractual institution is more clearly defined than it is as a religious institution.

Answer 2

It is both sanctity and institution, by this I mean a sacred institution. It is sacred because it is an institution created by God, not man. Most of us were taught that it is purely a human ceremony, but that's incorrect. It is a covenant between God, the man and the woman, and trinitarian bond.

Love is a gift of GOD and is a legal relation of one with another to feel relaxed in peace.
