What is a biblical marriage?

Do you have to get married in a church by a priest/pastor with a marriage license to have a biblically valid marriage? What are the requirements for "being married" in the bible?

Hi Mark,

I have asked this question to the christians,some say that we are to be 'submitting' to the governing authorities.

In the Word of YHWH,there are no such thing as a marriage license,no officiating,and a building was not necessary,just as Isaac and Rebeka.

The marriage license brings the marriage under laws,rules and regulations which YHWH did not intend,the only certificate was the divorce certificate,which the Jeewish men had on hand.

Today,marriage is a business.

Exactly. I think it's pretty amazing how we as Christians/protestants still are tainted with the traditions of the catholic church. We have to have our marriages "authorized" by some kind of church/state alliance, officiated by a priest/pastor and legalized by the government, when the bible has no such requirements anywhere. I think it's healthy for a marriage commitment to be witnessed and endorsed by family/church/community, but I just chaff under the idea that it must be done a certain way or it doesn't count. And I'd also like to complain against the sexist wedding industry that tells a woman that if she doesn't have a royal white wedding, then her marriage is worthless and her husband doesn't love her, and she can complain and fester for the rest of their married life that she never got "her" day. Arrogant pagan virgin purity rituals. Sorry if you like weddings. Rant over.





1 Timothy 4

1Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.

Markie;

That is what happens when the clowns had taken the 501C3

"CORPORATION " Tax exempt status. The clowns handed over the body of Messiah to their enemies in exchange for a few trinkets,just like what the white men had done to the Indians.
