LESSON FOURTEEN:

“HE IS THE BRIDEGROOM,
WE ARE HIS BRIDE”

This is the ultimate revelation God wants to impart
to His people: Jesus is the Bridegroom and we are
His espoused Bride. Paul gives a solemn warning:

“FOR I AM JEALOUS FOR YOU WITH GODLY JEALOUSY.
FOR I HAVE BETROTHED YOU TO ONE HUSBAND, THAT I MAY
PRESENT YOU AS A CHASTE VIRGIN TO CHRIST.3 BUT I FEAR,

LEST SOMEHOW, AS THE SERPENT DECEIVED EVE BY HIS
CRAFTINESS, SO YOUR MINDS MAY BE CORRUPTED FROM THE

SIMPLICITY THAT IS IN CHRIST.4 FOR IF HE WHO COMES
PREACHES ANOTHER JESUS WHOM WE HAVE NOT PREACHED,
OR IF YOU RECEIVE A DIFFERENT SPIRIT WHICH YOU HAVE NOT

RECEIVED, OR A DIFFERENT GOSPEL WHICH YOU HAVE NOT
ACCEPTED -- YOU MAY WELL PUT UP WITH IT!”
2 Cor 11:2-4

“THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN
IS LIKE

A CERTAIN KING
WHO

ARRANGED
A MARRIAGE
FOR HIS SON….”

Matt. 22:2
