Daughters And Marriage

Daughters And Marriage

by James Sherman

 

Recently my oldest son and I spent a day with a family that has a daughter his age. As the parents of these adult children we had arranged the meeting to allow them to meet one another in a protected and family-oriented atmosphere.

God bears witness against him, not for him; and testifies that "there is none righteous, no, not one"; that there is "none that doeth good"; none "that understandeth"; none that even seeks after God, and, still more, none that loves Him (Psa. 14:1-3; Rom. 3:10-12).
