One Flesh is the arm of
the *HOTR London Lighthouse that ministers to couples, encouraging
and promoting the importance of building strong marriages which
mirror the relationship between Christ and the Church, by
facilitating opportunities for insightful fellowship with other
Christian couples.
Marriage is the foundation for the family
and the bedrock of society and according to Ephesians 5, it is the
mirror that reflects the love of Christ for the church and the
love the church has for Christ. Marriage is to reflect that
glorious relationship. It is an astonishing thought that every
Christian marriage is to portray the love of Christ for the Church
and vice versa. This is a great mystery! The question is: “Can our
children say to the unbeliever that Christ’s love for the church
and the church’s love for Christ is something like their mother
and father’s love for each other?” The Christian marriage is to
radiate the amazing and sacrificial love of Christ, and the
all-responsive love of the church towards Christ. Divine love is
to permeate the Christian home, and this is why none should enter
marriage casually and without counselling, but prayerfully,
thoughtfully and wisely, considering the purposes for which
marriage was instituted.
The fellowship meets on the 3rd Saturday of
every month between the hours of 3pm and 5pm. Gbenga (Sweet) & Funke Ayodele are the
co-ordinators of this ministry. |
