Right and Wrong: Guidance That Words

 Consider four areas of life in which millions have learned that the Bible's guidance works and can be trusted.

1. Marriage

People have different views about marriage and about what

it takes to have a happy marriage.

THE BIBLE SAYS: "Each one of you must love his wide as he does himself; on the other hand, the wife should have deep respect for her husband. - EPHESIANS 5:33. 

MEANING:  Marriage is an arrangement that God originated, so he knows what is needed for a couple to be happy.  (Mark 10:6-9) Happiness results when marriage mates focus, not on what each other gets, but on what one can to strengthen their marriage. A husband who loves his wife will show it by the way he treats her and cares for her. And a wife who respects her husband will show by the way she speaks and acts.
