Worship with us at Community Church on Sunday, October 29, 2023 at 9:30 a.m. Pastor Brett’s topic is “Jesus: We are His Bride, His Inheritance.” Our scriptures are Psalm 103; Ephesians 1:15-23; and Song of Songs 8:8:5-7, 11-14.
Synopsis: Today we look at the closing chapter of a book that is often ignored by preachers. Song of Songs is the love story of Solomon and his Shulamite maiden bride Abishag told with great symbolism, an allegory. Charles Spurgeon writes on this, “We cannot imagine the Holy Spirit giving us this song merely for the purpose of entertaining us…There must be a deep and hidden meaning in it.” As we examine this passage in light of other scripture, we see the bride (the church) and its maturing love for Christ and then we see Christ, the jealous and loving groom, whose love is as strong as death. Behold the love of Christ that has overcome sin and death!
