In a day where much confusion reigns regarding marriage and divorce has become altogether too easy and too common, the Confession's support for this divine institution merits a wider acceptance. God made us; he knows the best situation in which we are to function. The family, centered around a stable, mutually supportive relationship between one man and one woman, is the ideal for human beings. For God made us in his image, man and female he created us, and the union of man and woman is a marvelous picture of who God is.
The church should do all in her power to support and encourage biblical marriage and to defend it from its many detractors. Divorce should be an unhappy rarity, not the widespread plague it has become.
