From the Beginning

From the beginning, God established the union between a man and a woman and declared that they were not two but one flesh. The book will examine the meaning of the "one flesh" concept and will examine the principle and the power of its function. It will establish the premise that marriage and a strong family structure are the best hope for the future of our children.

This book will look at the extraordinary increase in out-of-wedlock births among single women in general, but with special emphasis on the African American woman. It will also examine the serious matter regarding the absence of men as fathers and husbands. It will show the mystery and complexity of two seeds-the seed of the serpent and seed of the woman (Gen. 3:15)-and how it relates to marriage today. It will examine the circumstance in scripture when God was so angry and disappointed that he said, "I am sorry I ever made man upon the earth" and then destroyed all human kind, saving one man, one family.

The book will attempt to show that marriage and family is God's grand stage through which his blessings flow from generation to generation and that every great work God has done for the good of mankind was executed through the family.

And finally, it will establish the fact that marriage is a continuum moving from the beginning of time and into all eternity.
