The God Who Designs Human Flourishing
Manage episode 437503857 series 1095727
If the Bible is telling us the truth about reality, then the universe we live in was created primarily with marital romance in mind. The heavens and the earth were created for the marriage of Adam and Eve. The new heavens and the new earth will be created for the marriage of Christ and his bride. The whole of cosmic reality exists as the venue for the eternal honeymoon of the perfect husband with his perfect bride in marital bliss forever and ever. This is the breathtaking claim of the Bible. There is more at stake in marriage than we ever could have known, without the mystery revealed in the Christian gospel (Eph. 5:32).
