LOOOKING WITH JESUS AT MARRIAGE

'When we look back with Jesus to creation, we see marriage established: God's purpose at creation's beginning for marriage as man-woman monogamy. And we look forward with Jesus to resurrection, we see marriage surpassed: God's promise at creation's completion of life-beyond-marriage in life-beyond-death. When we look with the vision of Jesus in the Gospels - whether from the beginning or toward the end - same-sex union does not appear on either horizon.'
