Jesus - Our Hero Husband | Episode 13 | Adam & Eve

Did you know that the first marriage in the Bible between Adam and Eve is a type and a shadow of the marriage relationship we, the Church, have today with Jesus? In Ephesians 5:32, Paul declares that the marriage covenant is "a great mystery" that ultimately points to Christ and His Church.In episode 13 of "Jesus - Our Hero Husband", Duane Sheriff explores how the first marriage in Genesis was a prophetic picture of our covenant relationship with Jesus. Just as God brought Eve out of Adam's side and united her back to him as one flesh, God has brought His Church out of Christ through His sacrifice on the cross. The blood and water that flowed from Jesus' pierced side reveal the birth of His bride. We were spiritually in Christ at the cross, just as Eve was in Adam before she was formed, and through the new birth we have been joined to Jesus as one spirit in holy matrimony.Discover how Adam and Eve reveal the Gospel, why we're called to leave the world and cleave to Christ, and how seeing yourself as Christ's faithful bride will deepen your love, strengthen your loyalty, and draw you into deeper covenant intimacy with our Hero Husband.
