Topic: Marriage, a Profound Mystery (Part 2)
Text: Ephesians 5: 28-33

 Challenge: Never forget, only God has the key to a successful marriage.

 Today, we continued our discussion on matters of mystery in marriage.

4. In marriage, we find a perfect expression of the injunction - Love your neighbour as yourself.
 As seen in vs 28  of our text, partners are meant to love each other as they love themselves.

5. In Marriage, the miracle of two becoming one becomes real.
The two becomes one by;
- Adjustments
- Acceptance
- Love

Conclusion: In Genesis 2:18, it is the Lord God himself that said, "it is not good for the man to be alone I will make a helper suitable for him." Note the underlined, it is God that makes a helper suitable, no man and woman can ever 'fit' together unless made by God. So in case there is no compatibility in your marriage yet, take him/her to God.
