How is doing away with legal marriage an answer to that? Isn't the real answer to commit to legal marriage?
Listen to the words that I am typing! LOL I support the Catholic Church making marriage a sacrament.
I support the Protestant churches making weddings and vows a requirement.
In my opinion, weddings are for churches. I do not like the justice of the peace thing.
I could be a wedding planner....I love weddings.
Put that is not the point.
My point is that we should not judge those that have relationships and are living together. Sure they may not make it, so get them in church and prey for them. But they may last longer than the people that are married in your church. People are social creatures that like acceptance....love on them, pray for them, after they are in church they may get married just to join the crowd.
Either way do not sin by judging them for doing something that is biblical.
