Martin Knapp preaches about the importance of Pentecostal influences in molding faithful, loving, harmonious, believing, fruitful, obedient, kind, and hospitable homes. He emphasizes the divine foundation of marriage, the necessity of husbands loving their wives sacrificially, the obedience of children, and the significance of being right with God before entering into marriage. Knapp warns against marrying unbelievers, reforming partners through marriage, marrying illegally divorced individuals, and marrying for the wrong reasons. He paints a vivid picture of Pentecostal homes as celestial oases in a world of inhospitality, filled with God's protection, mercy, love, and divine truth.
