Well, In conclusion - what about the Covenant of Marriage as it pretains to the Bride of Christ? Will this be a shotgun marriage? Will Messiah marry a bride that he does not know intimately - like in an arranged marriage? If marriage was only about physical intimacy a man could marry any woman. But in a Christian free will marriage the bond is first spiritual intimacy - because the Word says that we should not be unequally yoked together. Some of us spent years and years looking for someone with whom we could develop this spiritual intimacy. This double intimacy after marriage is the deepest and most solid kind of marriage covenant that there is. The early Christians, Disciples, and Apostles operated on such a high level that there was no question about them not being the bride. All were martyred except John and they had evangelized the whole known world in their day - from England to India.
