The Wedding Model Of Communion

Contributed by Dale London on Jun 1, 2022

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus keeps returning to the model of marriage to describe our relationship with God. We often miss is the significance of our covenant of betrothal to Christ as solemnised in the Lord's Supper.

Many of you will have noted how I keep coming back to the subject of covenant when we come together for communion; that when we share the cup – even figuratively – we are reaffirming an agreement we have with God. The agreement is that we accept the gift of Christ’s death on the cross as atonement ...read more

A Detailed, Multi-Part Look At Biblical Marriage And Divorce Series

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Sep 20, 2019

Second, only to a personal relationship with God, marriage is the single most important relationship that a Born-Again Christian will ever have.

Marriage is the most HOLY thing they will ever do. Marriage is about living in harmony, commonality, and agreement, which is impossible without both partners being Born-Again (See 2 Cor 6:14-7-2). It should be entered into just like the High Priest entering into the Holy of Holies - with reverent ...read more
