There is a book here in the resources "Marriage from the Bible Alone" that is very good. I also appreciate how @frederick approaches it. What is the penalty? What class of sin is it? Those unanswerable questions coupled with "Many will come...

Thank you very much for your thoughts; reading through it the way you laid it out was helpful in structuring ours a bit better! Also thank you! This repeated notion that the responsibility for proof is theirs makes so much sense. I've...
