How do Christians celebrate marriage?

Answer 1

God has always considered marriage to be one of the most significant unions between people. In the New Testament we learn that the union created in marriage between a man and a woman is like the union between Christ and the Church. In this case the "church" is the entire group of people who have been saved since the death and resurrection of Christ. Scripture tells us that the "Church" is the bride of Christ, and will be fully united to Him at the Marriage of the Lamb (Jesus Christ) after all believers have joined Him in heaven. This ceremony will be followed by what scripture calls the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Throughout the New Testament husbands and wives are called on to love one another as Christ loves the church.

Answer 2

A Christian celebration of marriage is not unlike the Jewish celebrations infact since Jesus was Jewish Christianity was introduced to those who were not of Jewish background and this is why we have christian Jewish people who accept all the first five books of The Bible aswell as the new testament. Marriage was then and still today was celebrated with a banquet food, music, celebrations, and words of encuragement from friends and family wishing the marriage well and blessings upon the bride and groom. Gifts are presented to the married couple such as cards, money, vacation tickets, properties if they have it to give.

Answer 3

• Genuine Christians (or might we say 'true' Christians) believe that marriage is 'sacred'. They believe that Jehovah God invented marriage, creating both a male and a female; and then performing the first marriage in the Garden of Eden.
• Christians believe that what God has 'yoked together', -- 'no one should separate.'
• Christians believe that you should not have sex, before that marriage; but only after marriage; therefore 'chasteness' is important to Christians.
• Christians believe that the partners in a marriage should fulfil their God-assigned duties and roles.
• They should also treat each other with deep love, and respect; according each other dignity.
