-God describes our Salvation in union
with Jesus as a marriage. We are the brides given in marriage with him, we are
connected with him and we are one. That in a marriage, you must be faithful,
trusting, committed, and in a loving relationship with your spouse. Without those
things, the marriage is in complete shambles.
Mathew 22:2
“The kingdom of heaven is like unto a
certain king, which made a marriage for his son,”
((This is a marriage with Jesus
through His love and devotion on the cross; being crucified in a shameful
death, and resurrecting the third day, proving His power as the savior for the
whole world to receive everlasting life through Him. Jesus love us, and that is
why he sacrificed his own body in shame for us, and for the sake of our souls.
When a person truly loves someone, they will do just about everything and
anything to make them happy, and just to see a smile on their face. And for
their well being to be safe and secure, making sure no harm comes to them. That
is what Jesus had proved, by his love. Before someone meets the
other person, and is searching for that one true love, they can't find it, where
once you meet Jesus, and truly allow him in your life, you will fall in love,
and feel a wonderful weight lifted off your shoulders. Finally, you meet your
other half.))
Jesus is the only way to the Father,
no one can get to the Father without Jesus. He is our true love, and there is
no one else to fit in his spot, not anyone.
John 14:6-7
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way,
the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had
known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him,
and have seen him.”
---There is no other way to heaven,
and no other avenue to salvation. You must believe in Jesus Christ, the truth
that will set you truly free. Jesus prayed to the Father for future believers.

John 17:20-21
“Neither pray I for these alone, but
for them also which shall believe on me through their word; that they all may
be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in
us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.”
**Before we knew Jesus, we were in
darkness, a slave to sin, trying to fill the void in our lives. Within
yourselves, you are searching for something, but don’t know yet. **
Ephesians 4:15
“But speaking the truth in love, may
grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:”
Ephesians 4:19
“Who being past feeling have given
themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.”
Ephesians 4:22
“That ye put off concerning the
former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful
lusts;”
Ephesians 4:23-24
“And be renewed in the spirit of your
mind; and that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in
righteousness and true holiness.”
((A true married couple feel
connected, and know each other so well, that with anything they do, they do in
unison, and understand one another. Just like Jesus says that if we abide in
him, he will abide in us. He is the vine, and we are the branches. .))
John 15:5-10
“I am the vine, ye are the branches :
He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for
without me ye can do nothing. If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a
branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and
they are burned. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask
what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. Herein is my Father glorified,
that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. As the Father hath loved
me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye
shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide
in his love.”
