Doctrine (the friend of the bridegroom) paints an image of what life with God, the groom, is like. The image can be so vivid that, you may feel it already in your possession. Yet, you have to go through the processes that will mould you into the vessel ready to contain the heavenly inheritance. For example, the previous episodes paint a picture of the will of God for us to take up the role of the friend of the bridegroom. It then behoves us to give ourselves to the consecration necessary to truly become the friend of the bridegroom.
In the series, “Friends of God”, Pastor Jeffrey Walter reveals that the church consists of those who share in a common interest with the Lord. In this episode, “The Price of Friendship With God”, he urges us to offer ourselves to the consecration necessary to increase our capacities to discharge our duties as friends of the bridegroom.
This message admonishes us to give everything for this ministry: friends of the bridegroom.
