In September 2007 CMI’s Gary Bates attended the ‘National Strategic Summit on Marriage, Family and Fatherhood’ at Parliament House, Canberra. In recent months, he has been working with other Christian leaders and ministries on presenting the ‘Marriage Manifesto’.
When many groups are seeking to redefine the basis of marriage, this report provides concise reasons, based on research, why marriage is a social and personal good. The document has already received strong support and is expected to encourage a rethink of public policy with the objective of increasing support for marriage and families.
Of course, the family is a God-ordained institution stemming back to the book of Genesis. However, the more that people reject the Bible’s history and authority in this area, we should not be surprised that they also reject its morality.
