What Does it Mean to Be the Church?
We are the Bride of Christ
September 20, 2019 • Deuteronomy 7:6-8 Ephesians 5:25-27
We might not find the exact phrase “bride of Christ” in the New Testament, but Paul does use the metaphor of marriage to Christ as a description of the Church. By examining the image and studying the scripture passages that inform it: we gain a deeper understanding of the intimate nature of our relationship with God, learn how God sees us, witness his great faithfulness, and discover the implications of what it means to be united with Christ.
