Maybe you or maybe it's the web site you picked that does the lion's share of your thinking for you, either way one/both of you don't seem to understand the term 'sanctified.'

Here I looked it up for you: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sanctify

Pay close attention to definition 2 or even 3b.

Now I know the dictionary does not tell you how or what to think about this word and that it only tells you what the word means, my hope is that you still have one or two brain cells set aside for independent thought. If you do apply definition two or three B to the act of marriage. Which would make a Sanctified marriage a moral or righteous act before God, if you prefer definition two it makes marriage the place where the restrictions of sex are lifted.

How or why marriage happens has nothing to do with its sanctification. This allows me to flush the rest of your argument because it is based on your definition of sanctification and not what God has intended.

Sorry, Minnie maybe you can regather your thoughts and try again.

What does fulfill mean in this context?
