In my book,\u00a0God\u2019s Plan for Heaven, Eternity and the Universe Explained<\/em>, I show that God\u2019s ultimate goal is to have a wife, which is all born-again believers. We are now the \u201cbride\u201d of Christ, and following the rapture and our 7-year wedding ceremony, we become the Wife of Christ. In Hosea 2:16, God says, \u201cIn that day \u2013 this is the Lord\u2019s declaration \u2013 you will call me \u2018my Husband.\u2019\u201d And verse 19 says, \u201cI will take you to be my wife forever.\u201d (Scripture from HCSB version)<\/p>

You can actually reduce God\u2019s plan to 8 words \u2013 GOD WANTS A WIFE FROM THE HUMAN RACE! When you look at God\u2019s plan, it is all about Him wanting a Wife for Himself. The moment He created His first angel, the ball started rolling to accomplish His plan. Let\u2019s examine how and why He does this, and it all begins \u201cbefore\u201d He creates \u201canything.\u201d Here is why:<\/p>

God is a Triune God consisting of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; yet, He is still ONE God. We know God has an incredible three-in-one Divine love Relationship \u201cwithin\u201d Himself, still being One God. When we look at God as only a\u00a0Three-In-One \u201ccombined\u201d One God, we can see that three-in-one \u201cOne God\u201d is \u201cALONE,\u201d at least, until He begins the creation of His sentient beings of angels and human beings. Before He does that, do you think One God is \u201clonely\u201d? Maybe. It appears He is since He starts creating new relationships for Himself. He knows how incredible love is within His own Relationship, thus, He creates His angels to not only have this love relationship with Himself but also with each other, just like He later does with the human race.<\/p>

It appears that the main role for God\u2019s angels is to eventually serve mankind when God creates us. This is what they do throughout the whole Bible, mainly through Spiritual warfare. He obviously, knows one-third of His angels will sin and that He will then create a universe for His goal of finding a God Wife for Himself through a fallen human race.<\/p>

What God does for the human race is what He also does for Himself. Let me explain. God created Adam, and then He created Adam\u2019s wife, Eve, FROM ADAM. It is a two-become-one husband\/wife love relationship. He later does the same thing for \u201cHimself\u201d with the born-again church human race. He creates His Church Wife FROM HIMSELF through the Holy Spirit in a two-become-one Husband\/Wife love Relationship just like He did with Adam and Eve.<\/p>

We already know that God\u2019s created sentient beings, angels and humans, have free will and CAN SIN with that free will. There is \u201cno way\u201d God would ever have a God Wife who CAN SIN. That is why He connects His church to Himself through the Holy Spirit so that we can \u201cnow\u201d become a two-become-one Wife \u201cPART OF GOD\u201d who has free will but will \u201cnever\u201d sin, just as God will \u201cnever\u201d sin. There is only ONE WAY to have free will and NEVER sin with it, and that\u2019s by being God or being connected to God.<\/p>

Being that we now know God\u2019s plan is to have a Wife, it is important to look at how God \u201csees\u201d the role of a husband and wife in a marriage relationship. I will capitalize the word Wife since any \u201cconnection\u201d to God should be capitalized, in my opinion.<\/p>

He explains this in Ephesians 5:22-32. Many of us are already familiar with these verses, and some of them can be controversial when dealing with human husbands and wives with a \u201csin nature.\u201d For example, wives having to submit to their husbands bothers many women. Nevertheless, God shows us in these verses how HE and His Wife do marriage together.<\/p>

I am going to quote Ephesians 5:22-32, and to view these verses from God\u2019s perspective, I will add (God Husband) for husbands and (Church Wife) for wives to represent God Husband and God Wife in eternity. We will be looking at how God wants the role of husbands on earth to be the same as His role to His Wife in eternity, and He wants the role of wives on earth to be the same as His Wife in eternity. Doing it this way allows us to see both at the same time.<\/p>

Ephesians 5:22-32 (HCSB) \u201cWives (Church Wife), submit to your own husbands (God Husband) as to the Lord, for the husband (God Husband) is the head of the wife (Church Wife) as Christ is the head of the church. He is the Savior of the body (God saved us).\u00a0 Now as the church (Church Wife) submits to Christ (God Husband), so wives (Church Wife) are to submit to their husbands (God Husband) in everything.<\/p>

\u201cHusbands (God Husband), love your wives (God Wife) just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for her to make her holy, cleansing her with the washing of water by the word. He did this to present the church (God Wife) to Himself (God Husband) in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or anything like that, but holy and blameless. In the same way, husbands (God Husband) are to love their wives (God Wife) as their own bodies. He (God Husband) who loves his wife (God Wife) loves Himself. For no one ever hates his own flesh but provides and cares for it, just as Christ (God Husband) does for the church (Church Wife), since we are members of His body.<\/p>

\u201cFor this reason a man (God Husband) will leave his father and mother (God left heaven) and be joined to his wife (Church Wife), and the two will become one flesh (Church Wife being joined to Husband God through the Holy Spirit). This mystery is PROFOUND, but I am talking about Christ (God Husband) and the church (Church Wife). To sum up, each one of you is to love his wife (God Wife) as Himself (God Husband), and the wife (Church Wife) is to respect her husband (God Husband).<\/p>

When we look at these words from the standpoint of God and His Church in eternity, it is clear God is showing us how our Wife responsibility will be with Him, and His Husband responsibility will be with us. And here is the coolest part: after our wedding, it appears we will be on an eternal \u201choneymoon.\u201d<\/p>

But last, and certainly not least, let\u2019s go MUCH deeper. What I am about to say now may seem \u201ccontroversial\u201d to many, but when you analyze what it is, you will see that it lines up \u201cperfectly\u201d with scripture.<\/p>

We know the Bible tells us that mankind is made in God\u2019s image. Have you noticed how the Bible does \u201cnot\u201d say angels are made in God\u2019s image? Why is that? What is God\u2019s image? We know God is Spirit, and we, too, are spiritual beings; thus, we can consider ourselves made in God\u2019s image from a spiritual standpoint. However, an image, in this case, is an \u201cexact replication or duplication\u201d of God. God\u2019s image is a lot more than just spiritual. It is a \u201cduplication\u201d of God Himself, as you are about to see.<\/p>

God created a wife for Adam, and He has now created a Wife for Himself. Adam is human. God made Adam\u2019s wife from Adam, and she is connected to or a part of Adam since she\u2019s also human. Adam, as husband, is the head of their relationship. God has made His Wife also from Himself through the Holy Spirit, and we, too, are connected to and a part of God. God wants His Wife to be an \u201cequal\u201d to Himself in the same way Adam\u2019s wife is his equal. Both have a husband\/wife relationship. God is the Husband Head-of-His Wife relationship. He \u201cLOVES\u201d us, and we are to submit to Him with \u201cRESPECT,\u201d as described in Ephesians 5:22-32 above.<\/p>

We know we are connected to God through His Holy Spirit, but how does that work with us being connected to God? Connected how? How much are we connected to God? Is it 1 percent, 10 percent, 50 percent? The answer is we are connected to God in a WIFE to HUSBAND God relationship. We are His bride now and will become His Wife following our 7-year wedding ceremony when the rapture occurs.<\/p>

How do we know all of this is true? Easy. All of this is what God has \u201csaid He wants\u201d in His Word-of-God Bible, and God always gets what He wants. But it is a lot more than what God \u201cSAYS\u201d He wants. It is what God has \u201cDONE\u201d that proves it. This is the way everything ENDS! The Bible ends with no more human race and no more sin. We live in a new heavens on a new earth in \u201ceternity\u201d as God\u2019s Wife, and the ONLY thing we know beyond that is God tells us that the things He has in store for us we cannot even begin to imagine now.<\/p>

At this point in the Bible, the world would say \u201cThe End.\u201d Born-again believers would say \u201cTHE BEGINNING.\u201d<\/p>

Maranatha, Lord Jesus<\/p>
