I will now talk about John 2:1-2. These verses say, "And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage."
The Lord Jesus Christ honored the marriage by his presence at the wedding ceremonies at Cana. In this sense, marriage in the real Christian circles is taken more seriously than in other religions. First of all, the Christian marriage is not a mere contract that can be annulled or rescinded whenever the husband or the wife wants. In real Christianity, the marriage is a lifelong commitment and union, where the two become one before God, for life... "for better or for worst, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do us part." Such marriage is based upon trust, love and faithfulness, by both parts, the husband and the wife. In Christian marriages, the husband is expected to love his wife as Christ loved the church and died for it, and the wife is expected to honor her husband and follow his lead as the spiritual leader of their household. The husband is not considered better nor the wife inferior, but rather, both are equal in Christ. Of course there can be tense moments, misunderstandings, and friction, but a Christian couple would work seriously in order to iron out their difference, keep their vows and make sure that their marriages work. Unfortunately, wherever you see divorces among so-called Christians, you know then that they are not living the real Christian life, and they will surely give an account before the Judgement Seat of Christ.
