Marriage is Still the Right Way in God's Eyes
Please understand that I am NOT discouraging marriage with this article, I simply want you to be aware of what is happening in America today. And by the way, this article applies to women just as much as men, because when you get married the State becomes your children's surrogate parents. Literally, the State has the legal right to tell you how to raise THEIR children. If there is a divorce, BIG BROTHER will come down on you and make all the decisions for your marriage and family.
If you understand this fact, then you can see why the State wants people to divorce, because it puts the government into the steering wheel of your marriage, home, assets, children, retirement and family! Most often, the State will demonize men as abusers if the wife is willing to go along, portraying women as victims, and making children the property of the State. Argue as some may, this is just an irrefutable fact in America today.
I am for marriage! Marriage is not just the old-fashioned way, it is the right way. I realize that marriage scares many people, but Hebrews 13:4 teaches that God will judge adulterers and whoremongers. Walt Disney teaches teenagers to live loose, be immoral, dress immodestly, fornicate, score, and live together without being married; but such wickedness brings the judgment of God. Hebrews 13:4 teaches that marriage is honorable in all, and that is what I teach as a preacher of righteousness.
It's better to suffer within the will of God; than to prosper outside of God's will. It's better to suffer within the Scriptural bounds of marriage; than to shack-up outside of God's will, where there is no commitment. Shacking-up nearly ALWAYS leads to a lifestyle of fornication, going from one sex partner to another. Even if you're the one couple who remains true to each other in a shack-up relationship, it is not God's will. Marriage is God's will.
Sad to say, everything going on in America today with the feminist courts, unfair tax laws, State-controlled CPS, feminism, thug police, and other evils in the U.S. are discouraging young people from getting married anymore. Walt Disney and all of the major influences on America's youth today teaches them to be rebellious, defy their parents, drink booze, fornicate, get pregnant, have an abortion, and do it again and again... party, party, party! Americans have become the most irresponsible people in the world. Fifty-one million abortions? Talk about an irresponsible society!
Feminism has turned women into monsters, to the point where they're turning into lesbians instead of marrying a masculine man. The corrupters of our nation want young women to get pregnant through fornication, avoid marriage, forfeit a family to pursue a career, let childcare raise her brat, and only have one child. This is everything that Walt Disney, MTV and Holywood are teaching teens these days. Behind the euphoria of today's modern music is a thug Police State waiting to take your child and slave you out in a heathen workplace for the rest of your life, living in government housing, depending upon the government for everything, and the government having total control over your life. Wake up!
I don't condemn anyone for their sins, because only God has the right to judge (Romans 14:10-12; James 4:12; 5:9). I am the biggest sinner I know (and so are you if you're right with God, James 2:10). The purpose of this article is to inform you that at some point in American history, the State government felt it was their business to become a part of everyone's marriage. Men rush into marriage, but American women are infamous for being cruel, malicious and taking everything they can get in a divorce. Asian women are much more respectful because of their upbringing, and they generally make much better wives. They are taught to take care of their elderly, not stick them in a nursing home and forget about them like Americans do. If that offends you, then get right with God.
American woman stay away from me! That song is
very popular worldwide, because American women are infamous for being evil.
The fact that America is a major producer of pornography and sleaze in the
world, and that 51,000,000 American women have killed their babies, and the
whorish way American women take their clothes off in public, and the spoiled
brat attitude of the American woman is cause for concern. Television is
saturated with lewd sleaze... MTV, CMT, VH1, LIFE, FOX... it's all of the
Devil.
The Whole Court System in America is Evil and Rotten to the Core!
Having said that, I am not saying that all women are evil in America, not at all. What I am saying is that when a marriage has problems, there are plenty of evil feminist monsters who are a threat to any Christian wife. There are many serpents lurking, seeking their next victim, poisoning the minds of impressionable wives to divorce, divorce, divorce! The government sponsors all sorts of social programs intended to promote divorce, just as the government sponsors Planned Parenthood to promote abortion. Are you gullible? Every time you open a newspaper what do you see... divorce for a reasonable price!
You're a fool if you believe that you can get a friendly divorce, because everything you own goes through the court system... everything!!! There's no such thing as a friendly divorce when you examine the court documents. It's all cut-throat, cold-heartedly laid out in black and white as a demonic agreement. God hates divorce, and so should you if you love God (Malachi 2:16; Jeremiah 3:20; Matthew 19:8; Hebrews 13:5; Matthew 18:22; 1st Corinthians 7:10-11; Matthew 7:3-5).
The courts divide everything and turn any divorce into a war. It is deliberate that judges, CPS, lawyers, police and everyone involved in any family matter make a major case out of anything and everything. They declare war between husband and wife... an all out nasty malicious battle in the courts. This is how the system bilks people out of their money, retirement, home, savings, assets, possessions, and everything you've ever worked for. Judges and lawyers are scavengers, preying upon the public, making a major production out of anything they can to rob their victims of tens-of-thousands of dollars. Judges are simply overpaid lawyers. The banks foreclose on people's homes. Court cases are deliberately dragged on for years so they can make money for the courts, so they can ruin people's families and lives, so they can play god with people. It's evil as can be. It's all deliberate. America's court system is filled with thugs!
America incarcerates 25% of the world's prison population. That is absolutely shocking and reveals just how corrupt America's court system has become! We have 1-out-of-20 of the world's population in the U.S., but we have 1-out-of-4 of the world's prisoners. Our prisons are packed full of American citizens, because the prisonhouse system is a multi-billion dollar industry in the U.S. It is sickening. Americans are being locked away for 10-years for possessing $40 worth of illegal drugs, while Wall Street thieves rip off trillions of tax-payer dollars through Federal Reserve Banks and no one is arrested.
While Dr. Kent Hovind rots in prison for 10-years for not applying for a $50 state-license because of his religious convictions, Casey Anthony's mother is acquitted of murdering her child and slapped on the wrist for lying to police repeatedly. Talk about a rigged jury! Scott Peterson didn't receive the same treatment, they crucified him in California. Florida is a corrupt state, which is also where poor Terri Schiavo was murdered. Florida's judges are evil... punishing the righteous, acquitting the wicked, and killing the innocent.
There is no justice anyone in America. While murderers go free, mothers receive life in prison for possession of $40 of cocaine. While people are arrested and dragged into court for growing tomatoes in their front yard, treasonous criminals have taken over the White House and the evil newsmedia protects them, demonizing citizens instead. Sean Hannity is a paid professional liar and a rich stooge for the global elite.
There is a New World Order AN AGENDA to put undue stress upon families in America, to cause as many divorces as possible, to take your home, to take your children... to STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY (John 10:10). Out of chaos the global elite are plotting to build a Godless Global Totalitarian Communist Police State!!! This will be the Beast System of the coming man of sin, a charismatic and influential world dictator, the Antichrist.
I understand that money is one of the major issues and fathers certainly ought to be required to support their children. However, I have heard nightmare after nightmare of what the U.S. courts are unfairly doing to men. I do not believe that a husband should be required to support his wife for the rest of her life if she decides to divorce. In most cases, women wait until their husband does something stupid, like Faron Young shooting his gun off in the kitchen while drinking booze. After 40 years of marriage, that one incident entitled his wife to divorce and lifetime alimony.
I have known people throughout my life who were shacking-up together, especially people who have come out of ugly divorces. I am not criticizing those people. I am simply saying that it is not God's will. Two wrongs never make a right. If you feel that marriage is a dangerous proposition, then perhaps you should consider celibacy as did the Apostle Paul; because Hebrews 13:4 teaches that God will judge adulterers and whoremongers.
Marriage is honorable in all (Hebrews 13:4), but not for those who file for divorce (Matthew 5:28). It's never right to quit and give up. Marriage is not a business that may or may not succeed, it is a lifetime commitment to remain faithful by your spouse's side (until death do you part). The popular idea today that it's acceptable to walk away and divorce a spouse that sins is nowhere taught in the Scriptures.
On the contrary, Jesus taught unlimited
forgiveness in Matthew 18:22. Forgiveness is God's way. God said in Jeremiah
that it is treacherous for a wife to divorce her husband, and treacherous in
Malachi 2:16 for a husband to put away his wife. God is never for divorce!
Marriages end in divorce because of outside influences (marriage meddlers)
who tamper in other people's business. The greatest business in the world is
to mind your own business. Those who in any way encourage, nurture and cause
a divorce will give account to God for destroying that which is sacred and
holy in God's eyes. Matthew 19:6, “Wherefore they are no more twain, but
one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put
asunder.”
A License for This, a License for That!
Biblically, Christians don’t need the
government’s approval to get married. I am NOT
endorsing shacking up. There are ministers and proper ways to get married
without obtaining a State License. I am not against getting a marriage
license with the State, but it is not mandatory Biblically. The same is true
of 501c3
licensed churches. Legally the government says you are not recognized as
a church unless you a licensed 501c3 organization. That is unbiblical and
untrue. A New Testament Church is a group of believers who assemble in
Jesus' precious name. The church is not a business, never has been, and
never will be.
Likewise, a marriage does not require a license to be valid in God's eyes. In many nations, you don't need to go through all the red tape to get married as you do in the U.S. Literally, you are entering into a legally polygamous relationship with the State as a third party in your marriage. If one of you die, the State will come after you financially to take everything you own if your spouse ever collected a penny in Social Security medical benefits.
There is no end to the ridiculous amount of licensing required by the
government. God never intended for a man
to be ticketed for going fishing without a license. That is just plain wrong. Not only do they ticket you, they confiscate
all your fishing equipment. It is now a
law in New York that all dog owners must first obtain a
license. Jesus never intended for the
Church to be a licensed business by the State! Where does this infringement of freedom come to an end? Will
A license does not record the marriage itself, only the permission granted for a
marriage to take place. So why do we
need permission from the State to get married? Since 1837, the proof of a marriage has been by a marriage certificate,
issued at the ceremony; before then, it was by the recording of the marriage in
a church register. Requiring
a couple to obtain a marriage license is unnecessary.
Marriage is a commitment between two people and
God, so that no authorization from the state ought to be required. George Washington was married without a marriage license. So, how did we come to the time in
Polygamy with the State Government
By obtaining a marriage license, you are entering into a business
partnership with the state. I knew an elderly man who’s wife needed
to go into a state nursing home for medical reasons. She was under nursing home care for several
years. When she died, the state came
after the husband’s home and everything he owned, including his car, seeking reimbursement. The sad fact is that the state PUNISHES
married couples for being married. As a
consequence, the man was unable to leave an inheritance to his children,
because the state took everything. Lest
you think that is fair, consider that when the states were awarded a half-trillion dollars in damages from the tobacco companies, not one penny was reimbursed
to taxpayers.
A book could be
written concerning the reasons why getting a marriage license is a risky
thing to do. Again, I am not telling you not
to get a marriage license; but you need to understand that you are also
marrying the State government!
The state wants to get its claws into your estate and assets. By obtaining a marriage license, you are
voluntarily making the government a business partner in your marriage, and the
State may seize your home that you worked a lifetime to pay for.
If you don't believe me, then read it for yourself below. Here’s a disturbing quote from the Ohio
Bar Association defining Ohio’s Marriage Laws…

vows, you enter into a legal contract. There are three parties to that legal
contract: 1) you; 2) your spouse; and 3) the state of

That is scary my friend. So if you obtain a marriage license
in the State of Ohio, then you are LEGALLY OBLIGATED to your wife, children, and THE STATE OF OHIO!!! Certainly, a
good man has no problem providing for his wife and children; however, the law
will crucify you without mercy with that “Marriage License” you obtained if
your wife drags you into divorce court one day. Literally,
your marriage license will become A WEAPON used against you. The
State has no business in your marriage.
You will be at the mercy of the State of Ohio. Every
other state has similar laws on the books.
Consider Yourself Warned
5 Reasons Why Christians Should Not
Obtain
a State Marriage License
By
Pastor Matt Trewhella
Every
year thousands of Christians amble down to their local county courthouse and
obtain a marriage license from the State in order to marry their future spouse.
They do this unquestioningly. They do it because their pastor has told them to
go get one, and besides, "everybody else gets one." This pamphlet
attempts to answer the question - why should we not get one?
1. The definition of a "license" demands that we
not obtain one to marry. Black’s Law Dictionary defines
"license" as, "The permission by competent authority to do an
act which without such permission, would be illegal." We need to
ask ourselves- why should it be illegal to marry without the State’s
permission? More importantly, why should we need the State’s permission
to participate in something which God instituted (Gen. 2:18-24)? We should not
need the State’s permission to marry nor should we grovel before state
officials to seek it. What if you apply and the State says "no"? You
must understand that the authority to license implies the power to prohibit. A
license by definition "confers a right" to do something. The State
cannot grant the right to marry. It is a God-given right.
2. When you marry with a marriage license, you grant the State
jurisdiction over your marriage.
When you marry with a marriage license, your marriage is a
creature of the State. It is a corporation of the State! Therefore, they have
jurisdiction over your marriage including the fruit of your marriage.
What is the fruit of your marriage? Your children and every piece of property
you own. There is plenty of case law in American jurisprudence which declares
this to be true.
In
1993, parents were upset here in
3. When you marry with a marriage license, you place yourself
under a body of law which is immoral.
By obtaining a marriage license, you place yourself under the
jurisdiction of Family Court which is governed by unbiblical and immoral laws.
Under these laws, you can divorce for any
reason. Often, the courts side with the spouse who is in rebellion
to God, and castigates the spouse who remains faithful by ordering him or her
not to speak about the Bible or other matters of faith when present with the
children.
As
a minister, I cannot in good conscience perform a marriage which would place
people under this immoral body of laws. I also cannot marry someone with a
marriage license because to do so I have to act as an agent of the State!
I would have to sign the marriage license, and I would have to mail it into the
State. Given the State’s demand to usurp the place of God and family regarding
marriage, and given it’s unbiblical, immoral laws to
govern marriage, it would be an act of treason for me to do so.
4. The marriage license invades and removes God-given parental
authority. When
you read the Bible, you see that God intended for children to have their
father’s blessing regarding whom they married. Daughters were to be given
in marriage by their fathers (Deuteronomy
Historically,
there was no requirement to obtain a marriage license in colonial
Notice
you had to obtain your parents permission. Back then you saw godly government
displayed in that the State recognized the parent’s authority by demanding that
the parent’s permission be obtained. Today, the all-encompassing ungodly State
demands that their permission be obtained to marry.
By
issuing marriage licenses, the State is saying, "You don’t need your
parent’s permission, you need our permission." If parents are
opposed to their child’s marrying a certain person and refuse to give their
permission, the child can do an end run around the parent’s authority by
obtaining the State’s permission, and marry anyway. This is an invasion and
removal of God-given parental authority by the State.
5. When you marry with a marriage license, you are like a
polygamist.
From the State’s point of view, when you marry with a marriage license, you are
not just marrying your spouse, but you are also marrying the State.
The
most blatant declaration of this fact that I have ever found is a brochure
entitled "With This Ring I Thee Wed." It is found in county
courthouses across
See,
the State and the lawyers know that when you marry with a marriage license, you
are not just marrying your spouse, you are marrying the State! You are like a
polygamist! You are not just making a vow to your spouse, but you are making a
vow to the State and
your spouse. You are also giving undue jurisdiction to the State.
When Does the State Have Jurisdiction Over a Marriage?
God
intended the State to have jurisdiction over a marriage for two reasons - 1).
in the case of divorce, and 2). when
crimes are committed i.e., adultery, bigamy, etc. Unfortunately, the State now
allows divorce for any reason, and it does not prosecute for adultery.
In
either case, divorce or crime, a marriage license is not
necessary for the courts to determine whether a marriage existed or not. What
is needed are witnesses. This is why you have a best man and
a maid of honor. They should sign the marriage certificate in your family
Bible, and the wedding day guest book should be kept.
Marriage
was instituted by God; therefore it is a God-given right. According to
Scripture, it is to be governed by the family, and the State only has
jurisdiction in the cases of divorce or crime.
History of Marriage Licenses in
George
Washington was married without a marriage license. So, how did we
come to this place in
Historically,
all the states in
Blacks
Law Dictionary points to this historical fact when it defines "marriage
license" as, "A license or permission granted by public authority
to persons who intend to intermarry." "Intermarry" is
defined in Black’s Law Dictionary as, "Miscegenation; mixed or
interracial marriages."
Give
the State an inch and they will take a 100 miles (or
as one elderly woman once said to me "10,000 miles.") Not long after
these licenses were issued, some states began requiring all people who
marry to obtain a marriage license. In 1923, the Federal Government established
the Uniform Marriage and Marriage License Act (they later established the
Uniform Marriage and Divorce Act). By 1929, every state in the
What Should We Do?
Christian
couples should not be marrying with State marriage licenses, nor should
ministers be marrying people with State marriage licenses. Some have said to
me, "If someone is married without a marriage license, then they aren’t
really married." Given the fact that states may soon legalize same-sex
marriages, we need to ask ourselves, "If a man and a man marry with
a State marriage license, and a man and woman marry without a State
marriage license - who’s really married? Is
it the two men with a marriage license, or the man and woman without
a marriage license? In reality, this contention that people are not really
married unless they obtain a marriage license simply reveals how Statist we are
in our thinking. We need to think Biblically. (As for homosexuals
marrying, outlaw sodomy as God's law demands, and there will be no threat of
sodomites marrying.)
You
should not have to obtain a license from the State to marry someone anymore
than you should have to obtain a license from the State to be a parent, which
some in academic and legislative circles are currently pushing to be made law.
When
I marry a couple, I always buy them a Family Bible which contains birth and
death records, and a marriage certificate. We record the marriage in the Family
Bible. What’s recorded in a Family Bible will stand up as legal evidence in any
court of law in
(Pastor
Trewhella has been marrying couples without marriage licenses for ten years.
Many other pastors also refuse to marry couples with State marriage licenses.)
This
pamphlet is not comprehensive in scope. Rather, the purpose of this

of your own. If you would like an audio sermon regarding this matter, just

Although I agree much with the preceding information, you must also realize that there are also legal ramifications of not obtaining a legal marriage license from the State, like not being able to claim your spouse on your medical insurance. That's a big factor to consider. It must be an individual choice.
Likewise, no one can make you say no to vaccinating your children. There are legal ways to avoid the dangerous vaccines. Millions of children are coming down with brain-damaging autism from the mercury in the vaccines. Public schools insist on vaccinations or won't allow your child into the school. But do those same jerks attend to the child who has been brain-damaged for life because of a vaccination gone wrong? No, they couldn't care less. That's our insane society today. No one cares about your family as much as you... no one! MILLIONS of adults in the U.S. now have autism because of vaccinations received as a child!

The painting to the right is of John the Baptist's head, which Herod ordered removed. There are some things in life worse than death, and being dragged through divorce court by an angry and rebellious wife is one of them. I heard a lawyer say that he'll never take another divorce case, because the hatred in divorce court is worse than at a murder trial.

Marriage,
as conceived by God, is a good and fruitful thing.
Marriage, as conceived by the state, is an evil man-trap designed to deprive
men of their property and their children.
For
as the Ohio State Bar Association helpfully explains, the marriage
license is:
... a
legal contract. There are three parties to that contract. 1.You;
2. Your husband or wife, as the case may be; and 3.
the State of
This
contract grants the third party jurisdiction over all the property owned by the
first two, as well as anything produced by the other parties, including
children. And it is this marriage license which gives the state legal power to
dictate who gets what in the case of a divorce.
The
explosion of divorce in the latter half of the 20th century and the commonplace
abuse of men in the family "courts" (which
are actually fraudulent executive-branch entities that operate in total
violation of the constitutional law's separation of powers) is
bad enough. But since feminists have discovered how the power of government can
be used to forcibly transform civil society to their liking, they have been
emboldened to make even more creative use of the state's power over marriage.
In
As
the law's sponsor, Margarita Uria, helpfully explains:
The idea of equality within marriage always stumbles over the
problem of work in the house and caring for dependent people. This will be a
good way of reminding people what their duties are. It is something feminists
have been wanting for a long time.
No
doubt they have. Because, according to Marian Salzman, described by the U.K.
Observer as a "trend-spotter extraordinaire," women are
"rejecting equality in the workplace and prefer the idea of becoming
full-time housewives – but not ones who actually do housework ... women are
happy to abandon the workplace, but not if it means spending all day at home
cooking, cleaning and looking after children. Instead, they want to play the
"role" of housewife with a little help from, for instance, a nanny,
and someone who does the ironing."
Her
warning should sober even the most infatuated man. "Women think: 'What's
mine is mine, and what's his is mine.'"
Since
the U.S. Supreme Court now sees fit to take international law into account when
deciding what is and is not constitutional, it can only be a matter of time
before a woman's right to force her husband to do the ironing or breast-feed
the baby is discovered in an emanation or a penumbra. After all, someone has to
do the housework when mommy is busy sitting on a corporate board, which she'll
be doing as soon as the Norwegian concept of sex-based affirmative action for
company directors crosses the
Young
men are already responding to the increasingly odious burden of marriage by
delaying it or avoiding it altogether, but for the most part, they are doing so
without conscious design. It is time for men to become aware that as the more
economically productive class, they are the natural prey of the government and
its family-control machinery. The courts have already demonstrated that a man –
any man – will do for their purposes when child support is required, even if that man can be proved to have no
relationship to the child.
For
non-Christian men, the answer is easy: Avoid marriage at all costs. Marriage
only weakens your legal and emotional positions vis-a-vis a woman, and since
American women will freely provide companionship, sex and children upon
request, to marry is to give up a great deal for what is literally less than
nothing.
A
Christian man, on other hand, cannot freely engage in
non-committal sexual relationships, and so must marry. He can improve his odds,
however, by marrying a Christian woman who is not on
the career track. This will significantly increase the chances that he will not
find himself at the legal mercy of a sociopath obsessed with momentary
happiness ?ber alles, but blessed by a
traditional wife committed to building a family and a life together with him
instead.
But
is it possible for a Christian couple to avoid the state's machinery of control
and still marry before God? Yes, according to pastor Matt Trewhella.
