The Mystery of The Marriage Series "Union with Christ" - No. 2 Ephesians 5:22-33 7/26/26 Sunday PM Sermon

Please join us as we worship our Lord together!

In a world that encourages us to grow in assertiveness, domination and control, Paul tells us that people who are filled with the Spirit will grow in the opposite direction. As the Spirit increases in us, our pride will decrease.

The God who claimed you for Himself is working Christlikeness in you through His lowly ministers as they teach you to love God by loving your neighbor. - You glorify God with your body by continually sharing yourself with your spouse (7:1–2). - You glorify God with your body by selflessly submitting yourself to your spouse (7:3–4). - You glorify God with your body by consistently giving yourself to your spouse (7:5–6).

The sermon explores the transition from judgment to joy found in Zephaniah chapter three, contrasting the prophet's earlier warnings with the gospel hope of God's presence. It highlights two primary reasons for believer's rejoicing: the removal of divine judgments and enemies through Christ's atonement, and the intimate, joyful presence of God dwelling among His people. Drawing parallels to wedding imagery, the preacher emphasizes that God does not merely save from wrath but actively celebrates over His redeemed church with gladness and love. The message encourages Christians to anticipate Christ's return not just for the absence of evil, but for the supreme glory of seeing Him face to face. Ultimately, this future hope serves as a present motivation for holy living and eager expectation of the Lord Jesus.
