husband and wife together into one flesh, so <strong>God</strong> has fused Christ and the<br />

believer together in such a way that <strong>God</strong> can use the same phrase, “one flesh,”<br />

when speaking of this spiritual union.<br />

Death is the only way the physical union of husband and wife can be broken,<br />

but the believer in Christ has eternal life. That is, he can never die spiritually.<br />

Since Christ is eternal <strong>God</strong>, who died once at the cross and will never die again,<br />

there is no possibility of breaking the union between Christ and the believer.<br />

Neither the bride (the believer), nor the husband (Christ) can ever die.<br />

Therefore, no sinful action on the part of the believer can threaten his marriage<br />

with Christ. Even as in human marriage there cannot be divorce for<br />

fornication, the spiritual marriage between Christ and the believer cannot be<br />

broken by the spiritual fornication of the believer. <strong>What</strong> tremendous comfort<br />

and assurance we should receive from this glad truth!<br />
