Is the new Jerusalem a cubic city hovering over the earth? Or....is it the wife of the Lamb?
In the church age we are God's habitation, and we are Christ's bride. We see these things in almost all the NT letters. If this is our reality today, why does the church think it will be different in eternity?

After looking at the Galilean wedding, the Old Testament betrothal of Jehovah to Israel, and the two covenants, now let's look at the Marriage of Christ to His church. How was His betrothal similar to or different from what we have seen?

Please listen to this special message concerning the next several weeks of this podcast.

In the previous episode we saw that God made a marriage covenant with Israel. But we know that Jesus enacted a new covenant. What happened to the first? How does God, even God, get out of the first covenant?
This was part of the mystery that was kept hidden until God revealed it in the church age.

In this episode we will consider the betrothal of God to the nation Israel.
When did He do that? How? Why?
Seeing this is to begin to understand the two main themes in the Bible: the kingdom and the bride.

This is a fun episode that looks at the traditional Galilean wedding.
Understanding the Galilean wedding leads to deeper understanding of the teachings and parables of Jesus.
It also unlocks other portions of the Bible, it helps us to see events in an entirely new light, and it brings better understanding of what is God's eternal plan.

From Genesis to Revelation we can see two main threads: the kingdom and the bride. Both are in Christ.
In this introduction we will see the beginning and the end and how the beginning foretells the end .... the glorious end, which is only the beginning!
 
 
 

Called...Justified...Glorified!
God is for us!
Nothing can separate us from God's love.
We can defeat little satan!

God causes all things to work together for good...God foreknew...He also predestined...
These have been debated for over 1900 years, so here's another attempt.
Have you ever heard that the goal is sonship? Would that make a difference?

Creation is groaning.We are groaning.Even God is groaning.
Everything and everyone is waiting for the manifestation of the son of God!
This is our sonship, and this is our hope.
