description As christians, we believe that marriage “is a divine institution of prime importance, which, according to Scripture, was given for all humankind by God Himself.” In addition, is “a commitment to exclusivity and permanence.” However, in many societies marriage is looked upon as optional, with some considering cohabitation to be a reasonable alternative. The present essay does not focus upon scientific research per se, but rather evaluates the practice of cohabitation and its effects in the light of Scripture.

An evaluation of cohabitation in the light of Scripture El matrimonio, ¿todavía importa?: Una evaluación de la convivencia a la luz de la Biblia M. Davidson, Richard Iparraguirre, Joel Marriage cohabitation sexuality church society Matrimonio convivencia iglesia sociedad sexualidad. As christians, we believe that marriage “is a divine institution of prime importance, which, according to Scripture, was given for all humankind by God Himself.” In addition, is “a commitment to exclusivity and permanence.” However, in many societies marriage is looked upon as optional, with some considering cohabitation to be a reasonable alternative. The present essay does not focus upon scientific research per se, but rather evaluates the practice of cohabitation and its effects in the light of Scripture. Desde la perspectiva cristiana, el matrimonio “es una institución divina de primordial importancia que, de acuerdo con la Escritura, fue dada por Dios mismo”. Es, además, un “compromiso [mutuo] de exclusividad yde permanencia”. Sin embargo, en muchas sociedades el matrimonio es considerado como una opción, dando cabida a la convivencia como una alternativa razonable. El presente ensayo no se enfoca en la investigacióncientífica en sí, al contrario, evalúa la práctica de la convivencia y sus efectos a la luz de las Escrituras.
