The New Marriage (Romans 7:1–4)

The concept of marriage as a binding covenant is rooted in natural law, understood intuitively by people everywhere, regardless of their faith or background. Paul's teachings in Romans chapter 7 emphasize the limitation of the law, which only has jurisdiction over the living, and the importance of understanding the natural law of marriage as a lifelong commitment.
