The Covenant of Betrothal

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 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.
