Marriage
24 For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.(Genesis 2:24)
8 and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh. (Mark 10:8)
So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." (Matthew 19:6)
22 Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. 23 For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without spot or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. 28 In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. 29 After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— 30 for we are members of his body. 31 “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.”32 This is a profound mystery—but I am
talking about Christ and the church. 33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband. (Ephesians 5:22-33)
Adam and Eve where created Spiritually alive as well as physically. But when they decided to believed the lie of satan. Which was, “You shall become as gods”, they died as God said they would. They didn’t die a physical death, they died a Spiritual death. What is death, you might, ask? Death is the absence of Life. And the Life of God departed from them on that day.
We were all born, not created as Adam and Eve, were. Born in the image of Adam, spiritually dead, and devoid of Spiritual Life. Jesus came that we might have Life through Faith in his name. Once we come to Faith in Jesus Christ, what we lost in Adam, that being the Holy Spirit of God, comes to Live in us. Bringing Spiritually Life to the spiritually dead. Jesus comes to indwell and we receive everlasting Life in Him. So we are under new ownership, and control. We are now controlled by the Love of God, and receive the mind of Christ as a free gift. Now we can finally function as man was intended to function, as a complete human being.
In Him we HAVE Life, we HAVE the FORGIVENESS of sins, and we HAVE a clear Conscience before God, and stand PERFECT in his sight. And he also gives us EVERYTHING we need for Life and Godliness. Which is, Christ in YOU, the only hope of glory.
This then is the Christian Life you’ve heard so much about, but never really understood, because the people telling you about it didn’t understand it themselves. We can’t live the CHRISTIAN LIFE, because we aren’t CHRIST. Only Christ can Live His Life. And he does that, in and through his children. How amazing and awesome is that? All of this is by faith, because without faith it is impossible to please God. So as we received him, so we walk in him, by Faith.
Now we can take a vacation in Christ, while HE does in and through us, what we could never do, in the energy of our own flesh. Live a perfect and Holy Life, before our God, so he is doing that, in and through us. Is that good news or what? We take a vacation in Jesus where we cease from all our religious labor, trying to generate our own righteousness through good works, which is an exercise in futility. We STOP pretending to be that phantom Christian, that supposedly does everything just right and walks about hovering a few inches above the ground. And just be who we are, children of the Most High God, made perfect in HIS SIGHT. Which is why we are not to judge one another by outward appearances.
Paul says in Galatians 2: 19. For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. 20. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. 21. I do not set aside the GRACE of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!”
How did we receive Christ? By Faith, and as we received him, so walk ye in him. The Christian life isn’t about us, what we are doing nor not doing. We aren’t human doings, we are human beings, so be who you are, a child of the Living God, and allow him to Live his life in and through you. Don’t allow satan or the world to determine who you are, or what you are, or what YOU’RE supposed to be doing, or look like. Don’t allow man to put any head trips on you. Walk by faith in what Jesus HAS and is doing, in and you. He it is that will complete the work he began in you and WILL carry it on to COMPLETION. Whose going to complete that work? Jesus WILL, so give him time to do that, and he WILL.
Now enjoy the Life you’ve been given, as a free gift from the one who loves best, and gave himself for you. Amen.
