Rudy,

On second thought...that is a reasonable question. I had always been taught not to get involved in politics and such, but even in our churches and organizations there is politics. In order to get things changed or yet to remain the same one must be an activist for a cause. And what better cause than preservation of church, families, and Biblical/traditional values.

Thank-you for responding Rudy.

Blessings, Rhoni

If you are talking, Biblical marriage as God intended it...absolutely. In separating the religous from the secular in this area opens the door for discrimination lawsuits and keeping relious/moral people out of public offices which leaves us what?

It leaves what God leaves. All authority is appointed by God, is it not? Does God rule in the kingdom of men? The word of God on marriage remains the same to his people. We are not moved by what governments do.

Rudy, As I have alrady stated...God has chosen men and women of God to do his work on the earth under direction of His spirit. The Bible tells us the gates of hell will not prevail against us. Which means He gives us His Holy Spirit to fight the devil offensively...oh we cna stay married...that is not he point, the point is that the world wants to deny the Biblical hierarchy God has set for marriage and families and that is the issue that we as Christians are to stand for. God did not call us to be "Doormats for Christ" but AMBASSADORS.

Blessings, Rhoni

So your question is, is what is expected between two saved people affected by secular law?
