This Research work focuses on understanding the biblical concept of marriage as a remedy for the rampant break-down of Christian marriage in contemporary Nigerian society.
The study explores the concept and practice of marriage in the Israelite and Nigerian context, and the contemporary experience of marriage. On one hand, this identifies the forms of marriage, the causes and effects of marriage break-down in the society. On the other hand, the study explored and reveals the divine intention for instituting marriage. This gives the understanding of the biblical concept of marriage as instituted by God and how it should be practice by Christians, as a remedy to the rampant break-down of marriage in the contemporary Nigerian society.
The summary, conclusion and recommendations drawn in a chapter of the study carefully gave various ways by which the church and every Nigerian Christian can promote the standards of the bible, especially concerning marriage in the Nigerian society.
