Philippians 2:3-8   Who, being in very nature God,       did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing,       taking the very nature of a servant,       being made in human likeness.  And being found in appearance as a man,       he humbled himself       and became obedient to death—          even death on a cross!

  46. Saying I Do to theCircumstancesof Marriage

  47. Saying I Do to theCovenantof Marriage

  48. Covenant Marriages Too many people today view marriage as a legal contract. Contracts are based on rights and responsibilities and are motivated by self-centeredness rather that on unconditional love. A legal contract is necessary to begin and like wise to end a marriage. But a covenant is more than a contract. 48

  49. Covenant Marriages It is more than a legal document declaring a state of interdependence. The value of a ‘covenant marriage relationship’ as opposed to a ‘contractual marriage agreement’ lies in a person’s understanding and acceptance of God’s intent for marriage and the importance of His presence in the marriage. 49
