from "Sex God" by Rob Bell
quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If marriage is meant to show people what the oneness of God is like, what happens when everybody is one in the presence of God?
If marriage is a picture of something else, what would happen to marriage if we found ourselves living in the midst of that something else?
Is sex in its greatest, purest, most joyful and honest expression a glimpse of forever?
Are these brief moments of abandon and oneness and ecstasy just a couple of seconds or minutes of how things will be forever?
Is sex a picture of heaven?...
Maybe Jesus knew what was coming and knew that whatever we experience here will pale compared with what awaits everyone.
Do you long for that?
Because that's the center of Jesus' message.
An invitation.
To trust that it's true,
to trust that it's real,
to trust that God is actually going to make all things new.
