Biblical Families is not a dating website. It is a forum to discuss issues relating to marriage and the Bible, and to offer guidance and support, not to find a wife. Click here for more information.
In the quoted section above, you state sex only equal marriage if it is an inherently lawful union. I agree. It is not lawful if it is theft though. That is why you must establish that her becoming your woman is lawful. Whomever (even if it is...

I will stick with the idea that getting married is a process of which sex is the consummation, the final step in the process. Possibly not even required as I would accept that a marriage that had never been consummated might still be considered...
Where is your scriptural backing to support this idea? 1 Cor 6:15-20, Lev 21:7, 14, Eze 44:22, Deut 22:20-21, Lev 19:29, Prov 6:26, 23:27, and 29:3 all make it clear that unifying yourself with a prostitute is unlawful/sinful. "Rental" makes it...
Overall, great example of thinking things through and the analogy of the tree vs. branches seems to work pretty well also.

I see a lot of stupid on facebook in the comments. I think a lot of it is as you suggest just centuries of social conditioning. Also factoring in is gross heresy on the part of churches that teach God’s order goes God, Parents, children. When...
Right. And in Isaiah 10:1 it was said;
"Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees"
Isn't this a directive from God through His Prophet for us to weigh and judge laws and to rebuke those who use laws to effect...
The enemy within is a constant concern, but don't dismiss the feckless Russians and the thieving Chinese as threats. Either of those countries would happily conquer and kill us if they could. They say so.
Corporations are a legal construct...
I wonder how important the particular vows really are.
It seems to me that the essential nature of marriage is defined by God. Each party has roles and responsibilities, and these are written into the fabric of Creation itself, as well as the...
Romans 14:2-3
But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables. 3 Those who don’t eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God has accepted them.
Verse 21
21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or do...

And that, my dear friend, is why I put that quote above. It is most disappointing that those who claim to represent Him on earth are so quick to misrepresent Him.
