Here Are the Eight Kingdom Principles of the Institution of Marriage

1.  Marriage is a steady, unchanging institution entered into by two individuals (male and female) who are constantly changing as they grow and mature.

2.  The institution of marriage is more important than our personal feelings or what we may or may not think.

3.  Commitment to the marriage, rather than commitment to the person, is the key to success.

4.  Marriage is two imperfect individuals committing themselves to a perfect institution, by making perfect vows from imperfect lips.

5.  The Lord God will join together only that which He can allow.

6.  What the Lord God has joined together, man must not separate.

7.  Success depends on how much knowledge we have about something, not how we feel about it.

8.  A successful marriage hinges on knowledge; knowing and understanding God's principles.

Remember what the Lord God stated to His representative Hosea concerning the Israelites:  

---

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because you have rejected knowledge,
I also will reject you from being priest for Me;
Because you have forgotten the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.
~~Hosea 4:6
