Casal
O casal cristão é parceria abençoada por Deus. Juntos são mais fortes. O amor mutual, a paciência e a submissão ao Senhor são os pilares do casamento que honra a Deus.
Unidos em Cristo
Eu e minha casa serviremos ao Senhor. O vínculo perfeito é o amor que tudo suporta e tudo espera.
O projeto divino
Não é bom que o homem esteja só. Dois são melhores do que um — e o cordão de três dobras não se rompe facilmente.
And the Lord God said, It is not right that Adam should be solitary; I will make for him a helper as for his sake (or, as suited to him: Heb., kenegdo, as his counterpart).
Therefore shall a man forsake the couch (beth mishkeb, the sleeping-house) of his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be of one flesh.
Therefore shall a man forsake the couch (beth mishkeb, the sleeping-house) of his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be of one flesh. And they were both naked, Adam and his wife, and were not ashamed.
And the Lord said, Let us make Man in Our image, as Our likeness; and shall have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every reptile which moveth upon the earth. And the Lord created the Adam in His image, in the image of the Lord He created him; male and female He created them. And the Lord blessed them, and said to them, spread abroad, and become many, and fill the earth, and be strong upon it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
And you, spread abroad and multiply; bring forth in the earth and multiply therein.
