This belief differs depending on the particular beliefs of the various Christian denominations. Most Christians believe that a couple should be married before they have sex, or have children. Christians believe marriage is a sacrament and a gift from God. They believe it is a happy event, and that God is present at the wedding. Most hold that homosexual couples should not have sex or marry, because they believe that God considers homosexuality immoral.

They believe that marriage is a lifelong commitment to a husband or wife. They should be faithful to their partner. Divorce is not accepted, unless one member of the marriage has been unfaithful (this is not a free ticket out of a marriage, either- the couple should go through a lot of counseling before making the final decision to separate.) Most believe that marriage is between one man and one woman. They believe that marriage was created to make families.

Catholics believe that once a couple is married, they are married for life (meaning they cannot divorce). However they sometimes allow a marriage to be "annulled" on certain specific grounds. An annulment nullifies the marriage as though it had never taken place.
Good christians believe that sex should be had after marriage, and a marriage can not have a divorce.

What do most christans believe about marriage?

Most Christians believe marriage is between one man and one woman. They believe homosexual relationships and marriages are sinful. They believe such things as polygamy is wrong. (Polygamy in the Bible was a temporary thing that was only allowed at the time because of the circumstances, but the details are left for a different question.) Most believe that some of the "outrageous" marriage situations that nonbelievers use to ridicule Christianity were either one time things or cultural things that God allowed in those times for the good of people. (Examples: Man and brother's widow, allowing concubines, etc. why he allowed these things is also a question for another time.) Christians beliefs about divorce and remarriage is one of the most variable things. The most wide spread and Biblically accepted idea is that you can divorce someone for reasons of adultery. Either that or your spouse has a living spouse and they divorced them for nonBiblical reasons. In that case your current spouse wasn't free to marry in the first place. (Details of this are a discussion for another place.) These are the main views that are Biblically supported. There are a lot of Christians who believe things that aren't Biblically supported, but this is as close to a list of general things Christians believe about marriage.

What is a Christians beliefs in birth death and marriage?

Christians differ in some of these beliefs, but what I answer is what I and fellow evangelical Christians believe: Christians believe that birth is a miracle, and the birth of a child is a gift from God to their parents. "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" is a ray of hope for Christians regarding death. Life on Earth is temporary, and death is simply passing on to meet the Father. Marriage is where many issues come up and a debate can start. Marriage, as the Bible defines it, is a sacred between 1 MAN and 1 WOMAN. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about that. Marriage is a sacred sybmol of Christ's relationship with the church (his bride).
