Oct 11, 2023    Pastor Matt Keller

What does it truly mean to love and cherish your spouse in a Christian marriage? The answer may surprise you. We're diving deep into the scriptural interpretation of marriage in this bible study, starting with an exploration of Ephesians 5:25-33. Here, we find guidance on how husbands should love just as Christ loved the Church and the significance of wives submitting to their husbands. But this isn't a mere human relationship; it's a profound design mirroring the sacred bond between Christ and His Church.


On a similar note, have you ever considered the concept of self-love and care, and how it should be extended to your spouse? We dissect this intriguing notion, connecting its essence with the role of a husband in a marriage. Christ's care for His Church is the ultimate model for how husbands should treat their wives. Likewise, Ephesians 5:25-33 enlightens us on how husbands should cherish their wives, offering strength, encouragement, and above all, love.


Lastly, we unravel the profound mystery hidden in God until Christ revealed it. This truth illuminates the intimate union of the Church with Christ and how a Christian husband should care for his wife. Understanding the purpose of marriage as an illustration of Christ's love for His Church is crucial as it influences how couples live their covenant relationship for God's glory. Join us on this enlightening journey through scripture and the wonderful institution of marriage.
