Factors to Consider Before Marriage

By Eguriase S M Okaka

Marriage is the coming together and the joining together of a man and a woman as husband and wife in holy matrimony i.e., a state which is considered morally and spiritually perfect. If they are so joined they have become man and wife who are expected to live together forever till the end of time. Note that, these persons coming together are not animals or persons of same sex as the case may be with some group of people but opposite sexes e.g. a man and a woman who are not minors but adults i.e. fully grown human beings with sensibilities and accountabilities.He who made them made them male and female and declares therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and cling unto his wife and they both shall become one flesh. The emphasis here is 'wife' not 'wives'. But some schools of thought are getting married to more than one wife, i.e. Polygamy. These two persons came from different backgrounds, families, tribes, and culture. These are strong factors one should consider before going into any marriage relationship with anybody; will I be able to cope with this man or woman with his or her differences? We should be able to get the right answer to the aforementioned questions, because we all grew up with differences over the years. Hitherto we believed in various things (seen or unseen) about ourselves and live with them. How can we live with our new partner with these beliefs or ideas about existence? (The man or the woman if properly married now has become the new family). Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and cling unto the woman and they both shall become one flesh. That is the word from the Maker that gives us a strong reason to marry and live together.
