Truly, one of the best, if not the best, message I have heard on marriage. Mark Driscoll has some awesome messages on marriage but this is a masterful sermon.

[@1dropofblood]

Like others I am not interested in finding fault in Pastor Voddie Baucham's message. No man of God is perfect. None of the Apostles were and neither was Saul of Tarsus later known as Paul the Apostle. If they were perfect we could be worshipping them. But I take immense pleasure if a person is exposing the Word of God in sincerety and truth and the Holy Spirit is speaking to us through their words. I am blessed by this series. And I listen to generally Pastor Voddie , John Piper, Paul Washer and few others. I first heard Pastor Voddie's message Soverignity of God in post modern world. It shattered me where it needs shattering. After that I knew I can safely listen to him. And if I do not agree with him there, I have no right to judge him but form an opinion to a message or teaching all the time analsying my formed opinion through the funnel of Gods truth. Whilst remaining humble and obedient. In time God will bring change wherever it is needed. Peace out. Just listen without finding faults. God bless guys ! :D

[@biancahotca3244]

I think the main problem is that the American society is not serious enough about the meaning of marriage, its importance. Its a society of consumption. This "didn't work out for me" so next. They don't know how to forgive and love enough to work things through. So they keep on going through people hoping that someone will fulfill them. No one can fulfill u fully, only God can. They are selfish so they don't want to love and forgive fully to stay and to nurture something that may need healing and lots of love.

Marriage has taught me so much it's been almost 2 years. You realize that the enemy isn't your suppose but your flesh. It causes you to examine yourself daily am I following God? Should I have spoken to him that way? Best advice is to be guard the enemy is after your marriage. Keep reading the word daily and be in prayer.

[@ASimpleServantShares]

Excellent Biblical Principles on Marriage. We are deeply grateful for Mr. Baucham, honesty and practical simplicity in presenting the most important institution in society. A covenant marriage that is, 'until death do you part' is meant to be a blessing for the family, church, and society. Moreover, the LORD Jesus Christ first miracle was at a marriage feast giving His blessing on Marriage--for He is one who created this institution for the happiness of mankind and a place for children to learn about God. ( Genesis 2:18, Genesis 38:8 , John 2:1, 1 Cor,7:38, Heb.13:4 , Ephesians 6:1-4 )

Unfortunately I did listen to this series at 19 and got my boyfriend to also listen to it. I thought he was on the same page because he listened to this and agreed with it … I was so so wrong. I was so blind to who he actually was and it was not this man described. He agreed with it but didn’t live it nor want to be this man. But because of this series I got married after just 10 months of dating thinking that was the right Christian thing to do. It was not. I wish I hadn’t have listened to this series. & Please don’t rush into marriage. Be patient and prayerful.

Wow! It's 2022 and I am seeing this. Still not married but Thank God He knows my heart and saved me from myself. Could explain why I am a grief counselor. The man got some valid points. I suggest people take note. A biggy to me when I awoke is the comparison is Jesus coming for the bride. That gave me a whole different perspective of marriage and one I am not about to play with for one measley second. Seen too many divorces in my own family except one and when they came to their senses they won. Marriage is a serious thing, if you are not ready, leave it alone. Another video that is timely. Thanks Sir.

[@juliagrace1242]

The hardest thing about “dating” in this culture, even within Christian circles, is the lack of commitment on the man’s part to a woman. Until there is a man who will LEAVE everything to be with me, I’ll stay happily single. I have a great desire for marriage, but I’m waiting on the Lord to bring a man who is READY to marry me. Amen & amen! Great message!!

[@jamesswigert3380]

Just love how this man speaks the unbending Word of God. John McArthur and RC Sproul have actually been mentors to him in a way. There might be a thing or two that they don’t necessarily teach right or maybe do not have the full meaning of but I haven’t really found any yet. They are human beings and fallible but their solid theological teaching comes from rightly dividing the truth

Fair enough. However, your response, tone and beliefs BEG the question - why are you here? Why are you viewing this video if you don't believe in God/any "god" etc? Why are you watching a Christian Preacher speak about marriage from a biblical perspective? No need to apologize either. I have no problem engaging in discussion with you. Obviously, we are at wildly differing places with respect to this conversation but that's okay :)

I have only listened six minutes into this video so far, but insecurity is creeping up in my heart. My husband and I were born again believers when we were sexually intimate before marriage. We knew it was wrong and we have repented for it. But hearing Voddie say he knows couples who should never have been married makes me feel insecure in my marriage all over again. What if we should not have been married? Do I now live with my spouse knowing who he should have been married to? Even though we are thriving right now and I am seriously growing in my walk with Christ? Someone please alleviate my fears with the Word. Should I never have married this man? Why then did God allow us to get married? We got married fast on purpose so we would not keep living in sin. 😥 Thank you. And now we are honoring the Lord. Ugh I hate feeling this way. I want to enjoy my marriage!

He's speaking to a group of Christians and therefore, not required to "prove" God exists. The people listening have most likely put their faith in Christ and came to hear his message on marriage, not a discourse of a historical nature on whether or not God exists. That's not the purpose of this SERMON. I think you're looking for another video. By your reasoning, every pastor in America would spend their time every Sunday having to "prove" God every time they opened their mouths.
