The Old Testament and Women. In the creation account of Genesis 1, God’s first word on the subject of men and women is that they were equally created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27). Neither received more of the image of God than the other. So the Bible begins with the equality of the sexes. As persons, as spiritual beings standing before ...
Sep 25, 2004 · In her book Glenda’s Story: Led by Grace, she explains: Sexual defilement of a child is a monstrous sin, and the rape of a child’s spirit is on equal footing. The damage from either would appear irreversible. But as Dr. David Jeremiah has said, “Our God has the power to reverse the irreversible.”.

- A Christian woman can share Jesus and the gospel message in the city with those who look for redemption: [36] And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; [37] And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

I take my topic, "Marriage lived for the glory of God," to be an answer to the question: Why marriage? Why is there marriage? Why does marriage exist? Why do we live in marriages? This means that my topic is part of a larger question: Why does anything exist? Why do you exist? Why does sex exist? Why do earth and sun and moon and stars exist? Why d...
And woe to us if we think that "for him" means "for his need," or "for his benefit," or "for his improvement." Paul made it crystal clear in Acts 17:25that God is not "served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything" (ESV). No, the term "for his glory" and "for him" means, "f...
This leads to a very simple conclusion — so simple and yet so far reaching. If we want to see marriage have the place in the world and in the church that it is supposed to have — that is, if we want marriage to glorify the truth and worth and beauty and greatness of God — we must teach and preach less about marriage and more about God. Most young p...
What would the "glory of God" mean to a young wife or husband who gives almost no time and no thought to knowing the glory of God, or the glory of Jesus Christ, His divine Son . . . 1. the glory of his eternalitythat makes the mind want to explode with the infinite thought that God never had a beginning, but simply always was; 2. the glory of his k...
Perhaps you can see why over the last twenty years of pastoral ministry I have come to see my life-mission and the mission of our church in some very basic terms: namely, I exist — we exist — to spread a passion for the supremacy of God in all things for the joy of all peoples. That's our assessment of the need. Until there is a passion for the sup...
So knowing God and cherishing God and valuing the glory of God above all things, including your spouse, is the key to living marriage to the glory of God. It's true in marriage, as in every other relationship: God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him. Here is a key that unlocks a thousand doors. Superior satisfaction in God abo...
Let me say it another way. There are two levels at which the glory of God may shine forth from a Christian marriage: One is at the structural level when both spouses fulfill the roles God intended for them — the man as leader like Christ, the wife as advocate and follower of that leadership. When those roles are lived out, the glory of God's love a...
For Karsten Luke Piper At His Wedding to Rochelle Ann Orvis May 29, 1995 The God whom we have loved, and in Whom we have lived, and who has been Our Rock these twenty-two good years With you, now bids us, with sweet tears, To let you go: "A man shall leave His father and his mother, cleave Henceforth unto his wife, and be One unashaméd flesh and fr...
Jul 7, 2015 · In addition, 60 to 90% of all communication consists of body language, eye contact, facial expressions, and tone rather than words. Communication is a skill that must be learned and practiced in order to have a successful marriage. The Bible teaches us a great deal about communication, since God, the author of the Bible, is a communicator.
Jun 1, 2021 · Sermon on 30 May 2021 by Rev Lynette GohColossians 1:27 - “For God wanted them to know that the riches and glory of Christ are for you Gentiles, too.

Oct 3, 2019 · The entire biblical storyline, in fact, is the drama of God’s glory: In the beginning, God crowned his image-bearers with glory and honor. In the fall, we exchanged God’s glory for idols. In the cross, Jesus unites his people to himself, the Lord of glory. In the age to come, God’s people will walk in the freedom of the glory of the ...
