Feasting and Fasting as the Bride of Christ
Jun 1, 2025 • Sam Vendt
Main Idea: The new way of Christ, our bridegroom, is not compatible with obsolete religious systems.
1. The Bridegroom's presence is why we feast. (v. 14-15a)
2. The Bridegroom's death is why we fast. (v. 15)
3. The Bridegroom is preparing and preserving His bride, the Church. (v. 16-17)
Questions for Prayer, Meditation, Discussion and Application:
- Have you fasted or feasted lately? How does this passage impact how you'll fast or feast going forward?
- What obsolete or lifeless religious practices do you see in your own life? How can you hold fast to Christ, the head (Col. 2:9, 19)?
-Christ is preparing and cleansing His Bride through The Word. What has Jesus been showing you lately through His Word? How is He making you more like Himself?
