Then the new married couple study and get baptized. This is a question that is causing a lot of problems in our congregation. Thank you for your assistance. Answering these two questions will provide an obvious and irrefutable solution to the dilemma. First, this sort of inquiry is affected by extreme emotional investment that tends to overshadow the unobstructed use of reason and will-power.
Every religious question deserves a strictly biblical answer.
We should not want anything else, and we ought to surrender our emotions, reason or intellect and will-power to the mind of God on every matter that is addressed by divine revelation. God s marriage law is part of the Gospel of Christ. Essentially, that sentiment states that souls are not lost until they hear about Jesus Christ and do not make him their Savior. If that were so, a reasonable conclusion would be that the best service we could render to such individuals would be to withhold the Gospel message from them. That way, they would not risk failing to comply with the Gospel once they heard it, or possibly apostatize after obeying it.
