God instituted monogamous marriage between male and female as the foundation of the family and the basic structure of human society. For this reason, we believe that marriage is exclusively the union of one genetic male and one genetic female.&nbsp;<em>Genesis 2:24; Matthew 19:5-6; Mark 10:6-9; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe in Holy Marriage between\u00a0 a man and a woman as commanded by God. Marriage is between a man and a woman and this was instituted by God. (Genesis 1:27, Genesis 2:24, Hebrews 13:4, Matthew 19:4-5, Leviticus 18:22, Matthew 19:5, 1Corinthians 7:2, 1Corinthians 6:9-10, Mark 10:6, Deuteronomy 22:5, Romans 1:26-27, Leviticus 20:13, Deuteronomy 24:5, Ruth 4:13, 1Corinthians 6:18, Genesis 2:18-25)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We believe that the term \u201cmarriage\u201d has only one meaning: the uniting of one man and one woman in a single, exclusive union, as described in Scripture (Genesis 2:18-25, Malachi 2). We believe that God intends sexual intimacy to occur only between a man and a woman who are married to each other (1 Corinthians 6:18, 7:2-5, Hebrews 13:4). We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman. We believe that any form of sexual immorality (including, but not limited to, pre-marital sex, adultery, fornication, homosexual behavior, bisexual conduct, bestiality, incest, transgender conduct or use of pornography) is sinful and offensive to God (Matthew 15:18-20, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We also believe that God disapproves of and forbids any attempt to alter one\u2019s gender by surgery or appearance.
