Throughout scripture, faithfulness in marriage is presented as a shadow of faithfulness in worship. And so, the idolatry of Israel is often depicted as an adulteress woman. Those same images form the backdrop of the warning given to young men in Proverbs chapter 5. My son, be … [Read more...] about Keep and Guard ~ Proverbs 5

#16 Jesus and Church

Jesus, Worship and Work
