(24 points) Marriage is an important ceremony in the lives of Christians.
Christian marriage is a marriage between Christians. Christians get married only with Christians. God prohibits Christians from marrying disbelievers. In John 8, Jesus called unbelievers "Satan kids". According to the Bible, a person has not only a physical father but also a spiritual father. If a person is not new born, he is a child of the devil. God 's children and Satan' s children never get married. One of you has to chase a thousand people. You are the one whom the LORD your God gave you. So you have to be careful, love the LORD your God.
From the beginning, Christianity has always emphasized the spiritual essence and the mystery of marriage. Jesus talks about the marriage established by God Most Christians believe that this is a permanent alliance based on mutual consent. Some Christian churches regard marriage as one of the sacrament, but other Christians confirm the sacredness of marriage, but do not regard it as sacrament. Since the Middle Ages Christian weddings have been held in front of pastors and pastors The ritual pledges include vowing, recitation of the Bible, blessings, and sometimes even exchanges of sacraments of the Eucharist.
Christian marriage is based on the teachings of Jesus and the apostle Paul. As of 2015, marriage is regarded as a sacrament, sacred system, or contract in many Christian sects, but it is not necessarily before the Verona Council officially accepted the marriage as a sacrament in 1184 did. Before this there was no special ceremony to celebrate marriage: "The oath of marriage does not need to be exchanged at the church, no pastor is needed, and the couple can agree anytime, anywhere I can do it."
