The Purpose of the Family as a Covenantal Community
The family is a divinely ordained covenantal community consisting of a husband, wife, and children. It aims to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. The mutual help of husband and wife in the task of exercising dominion over creation is essential. Eve was created as a co-laborer to help Adam fulfill his calling of cultural mandate and Adam needed her help. The increase of mankind with a holy seed, aiming to fill the earth with God's image bearers, is another key purpose of the family.
