What He Must Be...If He Wants to Marry My Daughter

Voddie Baucham, Jr.

 

1. Must be a Christian

2. Must be committed to Biblical headship

3. Must be a suitable Priest

Spiritual life of a person comes FIRST

Priest is the chief servant for his community

4. Must be a suitable Prophet

Man must be able to speak truth (and be discerning to know truth)

Psalm 1

Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither—whatever they do prospers.

 

5. Must be a suitable Protector

6. Must be a suitable Provider

Learning to serve others starts when you’re young and starts with the “small things.”
