Between Abraham and the coming of the Messiah, there stretched an age
spanning two thousand years. Sadly by the time Israel had realised this
prophetic fulfilment, she had degenerated to an all time spiritual low.
As a consequence, the Lord Jesus Christ was provoked into a scathing
condemnation of Israel's leaders, labelling them, among other things,
“white sepulchres” and “wolves”
“in
sheep's clothing”. They had no room for God's blessed Son and
despised His “narrow way”.
Nowhere was He further estranged from that generation than was He in
His stand upon the holiness of matrimony. His strict adherence to His
Father's word, “from the beginning” shocked His
hearers who
had long since strayed from the holy commandment. “But in
vain do
they worship me teaching for doctrines, the commandments of
men.”
(Matthew 15:9)
Since then another age has all but passed by. This time the church has
had two thousand years, but is the church any better prepared for His
imminent second coming than was Israel for His first? The Lord Himself
asked: “When the Son of man cometh, shall He find faith upon
the
Earth?” (Luke 18:8)
The reading of this little book will shock you for you shall discover
that the church in general is today under an even greater blindness
than was Israel.
Nothing upon Earth typifies Christ and His church as does "Holy
Matrimony" and nothing is under greater attack.
