Yes the admonition in Ephesians 5 speaks of Christ and the Church but it is given as an example of how husbands are to treat their wives - but mostly glossed over in today's relgious circles - and apparently also among the religious on TT. Note: His Word is "spiritual" and it is "cleansing" so it is the spiritual rather than the carnal that I refer to here.  judyt     In a message dated 7/16/2005 8:24:27 P.M.
