Matthew 19:4-6 NLT “Haven’t you read the Scriptures?” Jesus replied. “They record that from the beginning ‘God made them male and female.’” (5) And he said, “‘This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.’ (6) Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together.” GET A VISION Genesis 2:18 NIV The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” Genesis 2:21-23 NLT (21) So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh. (22) Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. (23) The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.” Ecclesiastes 4:10-12 NLT If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. (11) Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? (12) A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
