Our Requirements are: That couples seeking to be married by a pastor of their choosing or by a pastor of Havenhouse must complete a course of biblical premarital counseling, using materials approved by a representative of Havenhouse. The couple must be born-again believers in Jesus Christ as defined by scripture, so as to not be unequally yoked together, as well as believe all the basic tenants of the Christian faith according to our published “Statement of Faith” available upon request. The couple must be regular attendees of a church, and they are not currently living together or engaged in premarital sexual relations. The couple must meet the criteria for God’s definition of a married couple as defined in Genesis Chapter 2, which is between one man and one woman. Havenhouse reserves the right to exercise it’s discretion to perform marriages, and to allow marriages to be performed, based solely on our understanding of Biblical authority, and thereby the limitations and definitions that the Scriptures place upon the marriage relationship, and thereby we shall not perform, or allow to be performed, marriage ceremonies that fall outside of that understanding, including, but not limited to, performing, and allowing to be performed, marriages between couples that are deemed to be living in open sin as defined by the Scriptures, at a minimum specifically referring to the following passage of Scripture,
1 Corinthians 6:9-11.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11.
