Marriage is an institution ordained by God, emphasizing the need for companionship and reflecting the union between Christ and the church.

The Bible underscores the significance of marriage, as seen in Genesis 2:18, which states it is not good for man to be alone. This divine ordinance was established even before the fall of man, highlighting God's intention for companionship. Marriage serves as a framework for mutual love and fellowship, allowing individuals to share life’s blessings together. Moreover, Ephesians 5:31-32 illustrates the mystical union between Christ and His church, making marriage a profound image of the relationship believers have with their Savior.
