Marriage is Sex

What makes a marriage valid?  How does God view the Married?  If my foundation is Genesis, Adam and Eve were married because God created them in that status.  Abraham and Sarah were given to each other in order to have children.  Sarah tries this by giving her Husband to Hagar for marriage.  Jacob was tricked into sleeping with Leah and they were thus married.  Bilhah and Zilpah are later given to Jacob as wives through sexual relations.

In the Old Testament what is the distinction between Solomons wives and concubines?  Most people believe he still had sexual relations with his concubines.  Likewise most people believe David had sexual relations with Abishag.  But does the text actual say that?

In the New Testament, St Paul tells us Marriage is to help squelch our sexual urges.  Thus, married people may remain apart for time but must come together soon after so not allow Satan to grab hold of them.

Marriage in the eyes of the State is consummated by the Marriage bed.  Marriage in the eyes of Mother Church is consummated by the Marriage Bed.  Marriage in the eyes of God is when one male and one female become united in one flesh, through a ceremony or through sexual intercourse.  The wedding is (consensual) Sex. Thank You.

Set Theory on the Trinity

Many Theologians are not Mathematicians. But Theologies are really into Science. For some reason there is a greater cross over between Theology and Science than any other fields unless you Separate Math and Physic into different fields. But Set Theory at its basic is the idea of taking sets of numbers or things and showing relationships. We see this in Matrices or Venn-Diagrams. Now Theologians generally speaking would use a Venn-Diagram to describe the Trinity. A Theologian would usually talk about three circles one being the Father and another being the Holy Spirit and the Other being the Son. Thus, where these circles connect that is then called God. But this means that there is part of the Son which is not God. Part of the Holy Spirit which is not God. And part of the Father which is not God. This is not true. Rather you take a list of Sets. Take Set God which contains all the attributes of God. Then you take a Set called Holy Spirit it would contain all the attributes of God and y...

Biblical Marriage

Marriage is defined in Genesis as a man clinging to his wife and the two becoming one flesh. This definition is standardized even in the New Testament by both Jesus and St Paul. Therefore, we have generally said Marriage is defined as one Man and one Woman being joined together in a life long union. Most people think that this Marriage union is created through a man dressed in black and woman dressed in white walking down an aisle to be joined together before some kind of altar. But this is only a ceremony of marriage. The Bride and bridegroom are actually joined together through what is known as consummation, or proper sexual relations.  Thus, St Paul can even talk in reference to a marriage bed. This concept may be overlooked by a culture that no longer views the bed as the place where a majority of sexual activity takes place. But he states this because the marriage bed is the location in which a man and woman are joined together. Just as it was Rachael or Leah's tent in which t...

Human Reason is Faulty

The Confessors of the Augsburg Confession recognize another important lesson of which many easily lose sight. "They condemn the Pelagians and others who deny that the original fault is sin and who, in order to diminish the glory of Christ's merits and benefits, argue that human beings can be justified before God by their own powers of reason." Others may say by any use of their mental faculties or even their own decision. When you deny originl fault effects your reason or mental faculties you deny original fault or sin. If human beings claim any power for their own Justification they deny original sin or Fault. But our Human Reason is completely Corrupt. Therefore, St Paul can say mean's wisdom is foolishness to God. Therefore, Anyone who thinks they can make a decision for Christ is wrong. In other words their Reason is faulty. Human Reason leads to wild heretical thoughts whie God reveals the turth. Humans can rightly ask who can say what is right? But God s...
