Teaching - The bride

The church is called the 'bride of Christ'. This is an important topic to be discussed later. For now we will speak of marriage.

The Hebrew word for marriage is 'laqach' לקח. Without knowing any Hebrew, you can know that whenever you see the lamed ל in a word, it has something to do with teaching. The word married also means doctrine.
The bride is a symbol. [1] Those who are taught by Christ are his 'bride'. [2] The bride is those whose lives have been changed by revelation, and are known as 'Israel' ישראל, or 'man joined to God by revelation'.
  1. ↑ Eph 5:32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
  2. ↑ 1Ti 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
God reveals himself and teaches his own because 'God is separated from men by ignorance' or 'Elohim' אלהים.
Paul wanted us to understand this when he wrote that women should learn from their husbands. The bride is the church and the husband is Christ. The church should learn from Christ. It is easy to see why people come up with pernicious doctrine subjugating women if they do not understand scripture.
It is the same devil that would have men subjugate women, rather than set them free to love and serve God as God would have.
It was the devil who read scripture in the flesh. He tempted Jesus to turn literal stones into bread. [1] But Jesus understood the mystery hidden in scripture: He was the stone that the builders rejected [2], the Rock that followed Israel in the desert [3], and he would become the bread through his suffering and death on the cross. [4]
  1. ↑ De 8:9 A land wherein thou shalt eat bread without scarceness, thou shalt not lack any [thing] in it; a land whose stones [are] iron, and out of whose hills thou mayest dig brass.
  2. ↑ Mr 12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner:
  3. ↑ 1Co 10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
  4. ↑ Lu 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake [it], and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
How you read scripture tells you something of your knowledge of God. Many will say that you cannot read scripture without the Holy Spirit. You may read it all you choose. But you cannot understand scripture until your eyes are opened by God. Your flesh will read it like the devil.
May your heart burn...
