Greetings, King David Jah.
Consider this: Sex is a physical act which any animal can perform. It does not mean you are committed to the person you hare having sex with.
Many people have sex for purposes other than procreation. We know that procreation can only take place if the sex act is performed. But let us be real. Many people have sex because they like the way it feels, period. So that whether they have one child or 20 children, they continue to have sex long after procreation has been accomplished.
As far back as biblical days, when a child is born of a union that included sex, but did not include marriage, the child was labeled a bastard – a child without a name. This stigma stays with the child forever. Even in today’s world, when there are so many baby mamas and baby daddies, the stigma of bastard is still there.
By making your commitment to your partner official through the act of a written commitment, it protects your children from being labeled bastards. It also protects your partner’s name. It offers her respect of her family that she would otherwise not receive.
I firmly believe that sex and marriage are 2 different things.
Marriage is a commitment that 2 people make to each other. Marriage requires commitment. Sex does not.
When we look at the example set by HIM, he did marry his partner. No one can refute that fact. People might offer you fifty-eleven reasons why HIM married his empress, but at the end of the day, guess what? HIM MARRIED HIM EMPRESS! This means he committed to their marriage in writing. No refuting that.
Are you committed to your empress?
Do you believe it is important that she knows she is loved and cared for by her partner, so much so that to marry her would not be an act forced upon you, but an act you would commit as a way of protecting her name, the name of your future seeds, her reputation, and building a solid foundation?
If your answer to these questions is yes, then I believe you know what to do. If your answer to these questions is no, then I believe you know what to do. Whatever you decide, ask Jah for guidance. And remember the example set by HIM.
One love...
