There are thousands of Godly young people who want to get married, are ready to get married, and should be married… indeed should have been married long ago… who are not married. Their... More > church, their friends, and their families have all prepared them for marriage, for early marriage, for early, fruitful marriage… and they are not married. There is no persecution, no law, there are no physical infirmities that prevent them from being married… but they are not married. This is not a ‘panic’, it is a crisis. We have many of the very best and brightest of our Christian young people who are already well past the flower of their age, and they are not married. That is beyond a crisis, it is a catastrophe.
Scripture provides clear answers to this crisis: which we have ignored because they run counter to our culture. It is time that we began to take every thought captive to Christ, and throw off the chains of bondage to this world. It is time we ‘let them marry’.< Less

The church is in a crisis. The world surrounding it is rife with fornication and adultery. Much of this is centered on the ungodly path to marriage that the world calls 'dating'; a path that has... More > become a cover and excuse for continual fornication and defrauding.
The church has no answer. Some ignore the issue and their children date like those in the world. Others have proposed 'Christian Dating' or 'Courtship'. However none of these represent Biblical analysis of what Scripture, and Scripture alone, teaches.
This is such an analysis. We have attempted to examine Scriptural pattern and precept; to determine what Scripture itself teaches.< Less

Hadassah was worried about this new husband her father had betrothed her to, the Prince Royal. What would he be like? She had heard all sorts of strange things about him, his father, his friends, and... More > his plans.
Ishvi, on the other hand, was angry. His foolish uncle had gone and joined in the rebellion and now he, Ishvi, was paying the cost: having to marry some girl that Seth, the prince, would pick for him, and then having to participate in some crazy plan that he had dreamed up.
