Christ and the Church: Sanctification, Submission, and Union

Morning.

Let’s read a few verses. Please open to Ephesians 5, beginning with verse 22.

Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Saviour of the body.
Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let wives be subject to their own husbands in everything.
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word; that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
So husbands
