Far too many people, Christians not excluded, writes author Geoffrey Bromiley, are self-centeredly preoccupied with their own marital problems and their attempt to engineer solutions to them. A theology of marriage can help them to achieve a God-centered look at the larger situation of which their marriages constitute a small, if by no means unimportant, part. In the long run a new look means a new understanding, and a new understanding means a new practice.Offering a new look at the seemingly unfashionable institution of marriage, Bromiley presents here a timely theological study which, unlike other books on marriage, aims exclusively to relate marriage to God as Creator, Son and Holy Spirit. Bromiley observes that God's work of reconciliation makes it possible for his people also to achieve reconciliation with one another, particularly in the marriage relationship.In addition to thoroughly discussing the relationship of the Trinity to marriage, Bromiley examines such topics as incest, adultery and fornication, celibacy, the permanency of marriage, and remarriage after the death of a partner.Bromiley, Geoffrey W. is the author of 'God and Marriage' with ISBN 9781592442904 and ISBN 1592442900.
