The ideal standard is for a marriage to be lifelong and unbroken by the forces of man, except for in the case of sexual immorality. Well, marriage is a mirror of the relationship between God and humanity, of Jesus and the Church. So Pastor Terry argues today that marriage is one of the most important human institutions because it points us all back to Jesus.
