Christian Marriage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781508864684)

HUMAN society is the work, not of man, but of God. It is constituted, not by the collective will of the human individuals who compose it, but by the single will of God who created them. God, had He so willed it, might have made mankind to be simply a collection of human individuals, each isolated from the other, and each independent of the other. He might have multiplied men, in the same way as He made man; or He might have ordained some method of production which should have left man as independent of his fellow-man for his human existence, as was the first man Adam. Had God done so, the formation of human society might have been still in a certain sense God's work, but not in that sense in which we affirm it to be His work. He might have been the Author of human society in the sense that He is Ruler and Governor of men, but not in that precise and strict sense in which we say that He is the Author of human society as He is the CREATOR of human beings.
