Marriage Is Honourable

The Battle

This verse names honourable and undefiled together here, worth examining directly, worth holding as needed, positive affirmation, this whole book’s exploration of the flesh’s genuine danger held alongside this described, genuine goodness, marriage itself named directly as honourable, not merely tolerated but genuinely honored.

This is worth holding against however much this whole book’s honest exploration of temptation might have quietly produced discomfort with desire itself, rather than this verse’s own direct claim, undefiled, this described goodness genuinely, actually available within its proper, God- given context.

Notice both truths held together in a single verse, marriage honourable, and yet judgment named directly for whoremongers and adulterers, worth holding as this whole book’s own mature pattern, genuine goodness affirmed alongside honest, sober warning, neither one erasing or replacing the other.

Whatever discomfort with genuine desire this whole book’s honest exploration may have produced, receive today this verse’s own positive affirmation, marriage is honourable, worth holding as needed balance, this whole struggle’s honest naming never intended to produce discomfort with what God himself has genuinely, actually blessed.
