“The law known as Marchetta, or Marquette, compelled newly married women to a most dishonorable servitude. They were regarded as the rightful prey of the Feudal Lord from one to three days after their marriage, and from this custom the eldest son of the serf was held as the son of the Lord.... Marquette was claimed by the Lord's Spiritual, as well as by the Lord's Temporal. The Church, indeed, was the bulwark of this base feudal claim.” WellsSpiritualLawThreeChurchKnownLordAtheismSonMarriedClaimsPositive AtheismCustomsCompelledPreyServitudeMarried WomenEldestDishonorableSerfsEldest Son Author:Matilda Joslyn Gage
“Just think of the possibilities, the potential. Every little boy that has just been born becomes an heir to this glorious, glorious program. When he is grown, he meets a lovely woman; they are married in the holy temple. They live all the commandments of the Lord. They keep themselves clean. And then they become sons of God, and they go forward with their great program-they go beyond the angels, beyond the angels and the gods that are waiting there. They go to their exaltation.” ThinkingLittlesWaitingBornLordBoysPossibilitySonHolyMarriedAngelProgramCleanLovelyGloriousTemplesCommandmentsLittle BoysHeirsExaltationLovely Woman Author:Spencer W.

“What if I say that it is not unjust but according to law that when a woman gets into debt her husband should bear it? And with the church of God sinning, it was but right that her Husband, who had espoused her unto Himself, should become the debtor on her behalf. The Lord Jesus stood in the relationship of a married Husband unto His church, and it was not, therefore, a strange thing that He should bear her burdens.” IfsShouldLawJesusChurchLordStrangeBearsHusbandMarriedBurdenDebtWhat IfUnjustBehalfStrange ThingsSinningDebtors Book:The Doctrines of Grace Source: The Doctrines of Grace
