“Cause it's a beautiful night, We're looking for something dumb to do.

Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you.

!Is it the look in your eyes, Or is it this dancing juice?

Who cares baby, I think I wanna marry you.

!I'll go get a ring let the choir bells sing like oooh,

So what you wanna do? Let's just run girl.

!If we wake up and you wanna break up that's cool.

No, I won't blame you; It was fun, girl.”

!Marry You - Bruno Mars

MISCONCEPTION OF MARRIAGE

• Pessimism

• Product of ancient practices - God created marriage.

• Unhappy - Most of people who stay married are “very happy” (61-62%).

• Idealism

• Perfect soul-mate - Marriage needs you to change.

• Redemption (apocalyptic romance - Ernest Becker) - Only God can give it.

• 술 취하지 말라 이는 방탕한 것이니 오직 성령으로 충만함을 받으라. 시와 찬송과 신령한 노래들로 서로 화답하며 너희의 마음으로 주께 노래하며 찬송하며 범사에 우리 주 예수 그리스도의 이름으로 항상 아버지 하나님께 감사하며 그리스도를 경외함으로 피차 복종하라.

• 아내들이여 자기 남편에게 복종하기를 주께 하듯 하라. 이는 남편이 아내의 머리 됨이 그리스도께서 교회의 머리 됨과 같음이니 그가 바로 몸의 구주시니라. 그러므로 교회가 그리스도에게 하듯 아내들도 범사에 자기 남편에게 복종할지니라.

• 남편들아 아내 사랑하기를 그리스도께서 교회를 사랑하시고 그 교회를 위하여 자신을 주심 같이 하라. 이는 곧 물로 씻어 말씀으로 깨끗하게 하사 거룩하게 하시고 자기 앞에 영광스러운 교회로 세우사 티나 주름 잡힌 것이나 이런 것들이 없이 거룩하고 흠이 없게 하려 하심이라.

• 이와 같이 남편들도 자기 아내 사랑하기를 자기 자신과 같이 할지니. 자기 아내를 사랑하는 자는 자기를 사랑하는 것이라. 누구든지 언제나 자기 육체를 미워하지 않고 오직 양육하여 보호하기를 그리스도께서 교회에게 함과 같이 하나니. 우리는 그 몸의 지체임이라

• 그러므로 사람이 부모를 떠나 그의 아내와 합하여 그 둘이 한 육체가 될지니 이 비밀이 크도다. 나는 그리스도와 교회에 대하여 말하노라. 그러나 너희도 각각 자기의 아내 사랑하기를 자신 같이 하고 아내도 자기 남편을 존경하라. - 에베소서 5:18 - 33

• Understand the gift of singleness.

• Recognize that there are seasons for not seeking marriage.

• F.A.T - Faithful, Able, and Teachable

• Check whether you obsess over your partner’s external shortcomings, or you can see the beauty within and you want to see it increasingly released.
