There are various analogies that are used in Scripture to describe the union and communion that exists between Jesus Christ and believers. Jesus is the Good Shepherd who feeds and leads His sheep. Jesus is the Vine who gives life to believing branches. Jesus is the King who rules over and defends believers as citizens of His Kingdom. Jesus is the Bread of Life who nourishes and strengthens believers. Jesus is the Chief Cornerstone who is united to believers as living stones to form a holy temple in which to worship our God. But, dear ones, there is not a more precious and intimate analogy and display of the believer's union and communion with Jesus Christ than Him being the Heavenly Husband who loved and chose an unworthy, sinful bride in order to redeem her, purify her, and to be united to her forever in the glories of His eternal home. Today we begin a scriptural journey into this unfathomable love story. We will not be able to reach the depths or climb to the heights of Christ's love for you who trust in Him, but we will (by God's grace) seek to understand as much as we can of this love story. We do not obey the Lord Jesus and find in Him our greatest delight because we do not understand the unbreakable cords of His perfect and sacrificial love. If we did, we would be transformed by it. There would be no sacrifice on our parts too great for such a glorious Savior. That in part is why the Holy Spirit has included in the sacred canon of Scripture this divine love song—the Song of Solomon. The sermon today is an introduction to the Song of Solomon and will focus upon the following two main points in the first verse: (1) The Author; (2) The Supreme Love Song.
