Jesus and marriage

ONE PLUS ONE EQUALS ONE God’s divine mathematics points to Jesus returning for His Bride when one plus one will still equal one!

In June 2018 the UK Supreme Court ruled, in a civil case, that restricting civil partnerships to same-sex couples was discriminatory, and put HMG under pressure to allow heterosexual couples to enter such unions.

The Court found in favour of the claimants (a midlife couple who consider marriage to be “patriarchal and sexist”. Their objection seems to have been against traditional marriage rather than any great admiration of civil partnerships). The Court was unconcerned about the implications of its judgement (tax and pension rights being acquired by millions of cohabiting couples, should they choose to convert these arrangements to a formal “partnership”). HMG faces the prospect of future claims at the expense of the public purse. In addition to pension implications, there will be the further calls on public funds to support couples when, inevitably, a proportion of these arrangements are dissolved (“divorce” by another name).
