The Bride Confesses Her Love

We spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years. Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Song of Solomon an overview;  “This book is a Divine allegory, which represents the love between Christ and his church of true believers, under figures taken from the relation and affection that subsist between a bridegroom and his espoused bride; an emblem often employed in Scripture, as describing the nearest, firmest, and most sure relation: see ( Psalm 45 ,Isaiah 54:5 Isaiah 54:6 , Jeremiah 2:2 , Jeremiah 3:1 ) ; also in Ezekiel, Hosea, and by our Lord himself, ( Matthew 9:15 , Matthew 25:1 ) : see also (Revelation 21:2 Revelation 21:9 , Ephesians 5:27 ) . There is no character in the church of Christ, and no situation in which the believer is placed, but what may be traced in this book, as humble inquirers will find, on comparing it with other Scriptures, by the assistance of God the Holy Spirit, in answer to their supplications. Much, however, of the language has been misunderstood by expositors and translators. The difference between the customs and manners of Europe, and those of the East, must especially be kept in view. The little acquaintance with eastern customs possessed by most of our early expositors and translators, has in many cases prevented a correct rendering. Also, the changes in our own language, during the last two or three centuries, affect the manner in which some expressions are viewed, and they must not be judged by modern notions. But the great outlines, rightly interpreted, fully accord with the affections and experience of the sincere Christian.”  – Matthew Henry Commentary on the Whole Bible (Concise) Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast reading Song of Solomon Chapter 1.   This is the excellent “the Song of songs,” It describes the glory and excellent love of Jesus, between him and the Church.  “16 The Shulamite Behold, you are handsome, my beloved! Yes, pleasant! Also our bed is green. 17 The beams of our houses are cedar, And our rafters of fir.“  Song of Solomon  1:16-17  NKJV. Today’s Feast is speaking of God’s love for those who choose to follow Jesus.  God has already showed perfect love for us when he sent, Christ (see John 15:13) to pay for our trespasses.  “10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. “  1 John 4:10 NKJV. The perfect love of God was proved when Jesus went to the cross paying the whole price for our transgressions.  If the Lord is willing I will write and post the Feast tomorrow.   Is Jesus calling you?  Do you want to share his love?  Do you want to find true happiness, peace and purpose in your life?  If the answer is yes to any of these questions please click the following link; http://admenu.com/calling.html.

And the third day He will rise again.””  Matthew 20: 17-19 NKJV. God Bless You, Brother Mike Links That Inspire Me; |Click Here| http: //www.admenu.com https://admenu.wordpress.com

For though a man labors to discover it, yet he will not find it; moreover, though a wise man attempts to know it, he will not be able to find it.“   Ecclesiastes 8:17  New King James Version (NKJV).   If you want to begin to understand God’s love for man look at how he sacrificed Jesus (See John 3:16) to pay for our trespasses while we were yet sinners.  There is nothing to be gained without love.  “1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. “  1 Corinthians 13:1-3 NKJV.  Look at our savior Jesus and endeavor to imitate his love.  Search the scriptures for examples of love (See 1 Corinthians 13:4-8) and you may begin to understand God’s love for us.
