Ephesians 5:27-31
Ephesians 5:27
that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.
Ephesians 5:28
So husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself;
Ephesians 5:29
for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church,
Ephesians 5:30
because we are parts of His body.
Ephesians 5:31
For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.
