Membership declines continue, but on a whole the denomination is settling into the new thing God is creating.
Yeah right.. It is not something God is creating but something man is creating.
Remember, marriage on earth is to reflect our understanding of Gods marriage to the Church. God is the groom and, His bride, is the Church.
The Kingdom of God, only occurs with both, God and the Church.
It doesn’t occur, one, without the other.
Two men coming together in a marriage suggests that God will be with Himself and doesnt need the church.
Two women coming together in a marriage implies that the church only needs the church and doesnt need God.
Since marriage is such a powerful symbol from heaven, it is no wonder that Satan works so hard to distort this symbol on earth.
Not once in Scripture, does the man symbolize the church, nor does the woman ever symbolize God.
