Introduction
The Christian Marriage is a tripartite relationship that involves one man, one woman and God unlike other marriages that can take different dimensions. That implies, each partner is expected to have the knowledge of God and His will in their marital relationship. In our Bible passage today, we can see the relevance of the knowledge of God and His word in a believer’s life. Our Study Guides shall beam more light to the dangers of ignorance of God’s knowledge in a Christian marital Lifestyle.
