Marriage
between a man and a woman has always existed. It is the way mankind
has been able to set up families founded on order and good principle.
For
those who work with it, it is a beautiful thing.
In a
normal civil marriage, the word’s “Till’ death
do you part.” Often throws a monkey wrench in what is hoped to be a
long-lasting relationship.
Fortunately,
this does not have to be the case.
Fundamental
Beliefs on Families
If He
finds joy in raising His own family [the human race in this
instance], why wouldn’t he want man to experience that same joy?
Marriage,
the sacred bond between a man and a woman is very important in the
eyes of God.
Man are
to be responsible and worthy husbands, and woman responsible wives,
and both are in complete and full alliance in responsibility and
fidelity to each-other.
They are to lead their children in example, word and action so they
too can enjoy the full blessings of happiness of the family.
This is
not to say every family is perfect, but when everyone strives on
these principles happiness [though not always immediate] DOES COME.
How
Can Marriage be Eternal?
Eternal
Marriage CANNOT be done by man’s authority.
It is
through the Atonement of Jesus Christ that man can be given the
priesthood [or authority] to do so.
God has
commanded
men to erect temples to keep such ceremonies sacred and done in His
eyes.
The
effects are far reaching, and the sacrifices are worth every mile.
The family as a whole
can enjoy the blessings as each commitment is held on man’s part.
Special
Testimony
To
finish this post, here is a simple video to reaffirms gospel truth,
light and assurance that we CAN be happy with our families in both
the good and hard times if our goals are set high.
