Marriage With a Mission

(English) In this message Ps Adrian talks about ◯◯ in these 6 points:

(Jeremiah 29:11 NLT) For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

1.Creation Story

(Genesis 1:27-28 NLT) So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. (28) Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”

(Genesis 2:18-25 NLT) Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.” (19) So the Lord God formed from the ground all the wild animals and all the birds of the sky. He brought them to the man to see what he would call them, and the man chose a name for each one. (20) He gave names to all the livestock, all the birds of the sky, and all the wild animals. But still there was no helper just right for him. (21) So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. While the man slept, the Lord God took out one of the man’s ribs and closed up the opening. (22) Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib, and he brought her to the man. (23) “At last!” the man exclaimed. “This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken from ‘man.’” (24) This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. (25) Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame.

2.What is Marriage?

(Matthew 19:4-5 NLT) “Haven’t you read the Scriptures?” Jesus replied. “They record that from the beginning ‘God made them male and female.’” (5) And he said, “‘This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.’

3.Ruling Side by Side

(Genesis 1:27 NLT) So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. 

4.Blessed to Be a Blessing

(Genesis 1:28 NLT) Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”

5.United in Purpose

(Genesis 2:24 NLT) This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.

6.A Safe Place

(Genesis 2:25 NLT) Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame.
