MATTHEW 19:4-5
And Jesus answered and said unto the Pharisees who had come to find an excuse to reject His teachings, Have you not read, that He Who made them at the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
TWO VERSES - SEVEN IMPORTANT BIBLE DOCTRINES
In these two short verses, Jesus gave us seven important arguments we can use against the enemies of God's Holy Word:
1 The Genesis record is true! Our Lord quoted first from Genesis 1, and then from Genesis 2. "Have you not read?" He expected people to understand and believe the Book of Genesis, and receive it as an authoritative record of what happened at the dawn of human history.
2. Man did not evolve from lower creatures. Man was made by an all-wise Creator for a purpose; he is not a freak accident of nature who slowly developed by chance apart from any intelligence.
3. There were not millions of years before human history began, because the creation of man took place "at the beginning." This rules out long geological periods prior to man's arrival on earth since man was there at the very beginning. Indeed, man was made just six days after the earth was created!
4. There is no gender confusion with God. When God made man male and female, He did not make a mistake, and gender identity is based on God’s creation, not on man's self-identity.
5. Marriage is defined as a union between a man and a woman. And what God has defined, let not man re-define! Human judges and politicians have no authority to change God's definition of marriage.
6. The family unit is composed of a father and mother and their offspring.
7. Marriage results in a new and independent family unit, as the man leaves his father and mother and cleaves to his wife.
These seven doctrines are foundational to understanding why we are here, and they are fundamental to the very structure of our society. Disregard for these principles will lead to a country's decay, deterioration, and its ultimate destruction.

DO NOT LET HERETICAL TEACHINGS ON CREATION, ON GENDER IDENTIFICATION, AND ON GOD'S INTENDED BUILDING BLOCK OF SOCIETY, THE FAMILY, CAUSE YOU TO DOUBT THE ACCURACY OF GOD'S WORD!
DOUBT IS THE OPPOSITE OF FAITH!
FAITH WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY FOR SALVATION!
EPHESIANS 2:8 SAYS: FOR BY GRACE ARE YOU SAVED THROUGH FAITH; AND THAT NOT OF YOURSELVES: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD!
ROMANS 10:17 SAYS: FAITH COMES FROM HEARING, AND HEARING FROM THE WORD OF GOD!
