Looking to Marry - Part 2

Philip De Courcy • Proverbs 18:22

Proverbs helps us see that there is: debatable beauty, durable beauty, and desirable beauty. Physical attraction is never enough. According to the book of Proverbs, to start or sustain a marriage, it's a factor, but it's not a primary factor. We are body and spirit, and becoming one is a much richer concept than sexual union. You and I need to have a concept of beauty that's theologically rooted and based in the Word of God. God defines what is beautiful. He's the measure of what is good and beautiful. So a Christian vision of beauty is rooted in the moral character of God. A Christian view of that which is attractive, is rooted in the transcendental reality of who God is, what God does, and by extension- what God expects. When talking about beauty, we’re talking about theology. I'm talking about how God perceives us. We are beautiful because he's made as exactly the way we are.
