Jack & Jill - Making Dating and Marriage Easy
Genesis 2:20-23: Marriage was God's plan and it is a physical institution that mirrors the relationship between Christ and the church.
Ephesians 5:25&28: The love a man should have for his wife should be the type that Jesus has for the church!
A sacrificial love. The word love used in Ephesians 5:28 is Agape love. It's unconditional and sacrificial love. It is not transactional, Unconditional love is consciously learnt before marriage! Unconditional love is the love that keeps loving even when the person is not at their best.
Condemnation doesn't build a relationship, it tears down. To measure how much a person loves you, examine the 'love' through the word of God
John 13:34: The standard for love is how Christ has loved the church
