About this listen

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church. He gave up his life for her to make her holy and clean, washed by the cleansing of God’s word. He did this to present her to himself as a glorious church without a spot or wrinkle or any other blemish. Instead, she will be holy and without fault. In the same way, husbands ought to love their wives as they love their own bodies. For a man who loves his wife actually shows love for himself. No one hates his own body but feeds and cares for it, just as Christ cares for the church. And we are members of his body. As the Scriptures say, “A man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.” This is a great mystery, but it is an illustration of the way Christ and the church are one. -Ephesians 5 Today we are going to talk about the mystery of marriage, and the mystery -the one thing - that makes marriage so unique from any other relationship- so special…SEX! The sexual union that is specific to a marriage (covenant relationship between one man and one woman under God.) I heard a sermon by Dr. Jim Garlow. He is the pastor of Skyline Church in San Diego California. He does a marvelous job of explaining the creation account of marriage….and today I wanted to share some of those notes that I took from that sermon with you.
