How to interpret Scripture does matter, it can cost you your physical life and in some cases your spiritual well being now, and your afterlife later. It is not just a matter of opinion when essentials are involved. It becomes critically important in these last days to be sure of what we believe and practice. For it shapes our attitude toward serving and looking to the Lord’s coming.
Paul writes “For I espoused you to one husband, that I might present you as a pure virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve in his craftiness, your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity and the purity that is toward Christ. . . . The elements of first love then are simplicity and purity. . . The love of the Church to Christ is typified by the love of the wife for the husband. The love of Christ to the Church is Unselfish love; he died for us while we were still his enemy. It is a love that is patient, nurturing, caring giving her the attention she needs, a love in which there was no selfishness. What is the Church's love for Christ? It should be the same recognizing he is our headship our covering we should have a response of submission of love to his perfect love. Faithfulness -having only eyes for him as he has only eyes for her. This was done he said by continuing in His word. But there are those who come along telling us something quite different what his word means.
