QUESTION: I am now twenty-three years of age. Am I fit to marry?
ANSWER: Some people are ready to marry at a younger age; some at twentythree, while some who don’t mature properly should never marry. Although, we are not aware of all the circumstances, it would appear from your letter that you are mature enough to accept the responsibilities of marriage. However, a man who is mature and considering marriage will be sure that he will be able to support a family. More importantly, he will be sure that his marriage with the one and same woman is to last until death, and that it is consistent with the will of God in every respect! Please read (and reread) very carefully Matthew 19:3-9!
