His Love Endures Forever
Gal. 1:10 For am I now seeking the
approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please
man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Matt 16:24 Then Jesus told his
disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him
deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
Under LawIn Adam, Slave to Sin, Death
Under GraceIn Christ, Slaves of Righteousness, Life
Matt 19:9 And I say to you: whoever
divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits
adultery.
1 Cor 7:39 A wife is bound to her
husband as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she
is free to be married to whom she wishes, only in the
Lord.
Mal 2:14 - the Lord was witness between you and the wife of your youth, to whom you have been faithless, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant. Prov. 2:17 …who forsakes the companion of her youth and forgets the covenant of her God.
“When dating or living together, you have to prove your value daily by impressing and enticing. You have to show that chemistry is there and the relationship is fun and fulfilling or it will be over. We are still basically in a consumer relationship, and that means constant promotion and marketing. The legal bond of marriage, however, creates a space of security where we can open up and reveal our true selves. We can be vulnerable, no longer having to keep the facades. We don’t have to keep selling ourselves. We can lay the last layer of our defense down and be completely naked, both physical and in every other way.” - Tim Keller
Jer. 31:31-34Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord,
when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring
them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband,
declares the Lord. But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those
days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts.
And I will be their God, and they shall be my people. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor
and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know
me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I
will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Hebrews 8:13In speaking of a new
covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And
what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.
Gal 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things
there is no law.
Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating
and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
