Network TV is set to air a program that will insinuate that Jesus had a secret wife, Mary Magdalene and that the two had a child while He was here on the earth. Following is some material to consider regarding this very wrong and false topic. This is a startling topic yet it is a good opportunity for us as Christians to define Christianity to others and to point out the errors of the non-Biblical approach to defining Jesus. "Any marriage prior to the Cross would mean that Jesus was marring a sinner and really teachings of an earthly marriage of Jesus are yet another false set of teachings that are attempting to do away with the need of mankind for the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross and of His Glorious Resurrection and it is an attempt to deny the special relationship that Jesus has with His Bride - The Church." Bride of Christ Bride: numphe (3565) to veil, cover, claim, promised union Wife: gune (1135) to become, assembled, united, fulfilled, completed Verses - Isaiah 61:10; Jeremiah 3:20; Matthew 25:1; John 3:29; Ephesians 5:23-33; Revelation 19:7 First Use: Genesis 2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. The faithful marriage union between one man and one woman is a representation of the ultimate intimate Spiritual union relationship between God and His people. Jeremiah 3:13,20 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: .. Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt with Me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD. Jesus is the bridegroom and one day as a groom He is going to take part in a marriage an arranged marriage. The Glorious marriage arranged by His Father, God. The very special bride for Jesus is us! the Church of Jesus. 2nd Corinthians 11:2 For I (Apostle Paul) am jealous over you (Church) with godly jealously: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. Some false teachers have tried to negate the special relationship that Jesus has with His true Church/Bride and have put forth the false teaching that Jesus was married while He was here on the earth. Often Mary Magdalene is suggested as a possible wife for Jesus. At times the wedding in Cana of Galilee John chapter 2 is offered as Jesus' own wedding. Yet, it would be odd to have Jesus the "invited guest" steal the bride and then get married himself an act that would likely create a riot and would not be a legal wedding in lacking the Jewish one year of betrothal prior to marriage. The wedding in Cana is not the wedding of Jesus. In a further attempt to patch together a wife for Jesus the Mary who is the sister of Martha is at times passed off as the same person as Mary Magdalene however the two Marys are distinctly two different women. Luke 8:2 Mary called Magdalene and Luke 10:39 and she (Martha) had a sister called Mary confirm that the two Marys are separate women. The polygamist teaching of the Mormon (LDS) Cult teaches and speculates that Jesus had as many as three wives while He was here on earth. It is Mormon teaching that every good Mormon is married therefore the Mormons have attempted to manufacture wives for Jesus and then claim that Jesus is a Mormon. Like all of the other false teachings regarding a wife and child for Jesus the Mormon teachings are contrived, vague and completely unbiblical. Rest assured that Jesus did not have an earthly marriage or any earthly wives but that according to the Bible the final union between Jesus and His Bride the Church is yet to come in the grand and Glorious celebration of the Wedding Feast Supper. Revelation 19:7-9 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to Him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and His wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. The Prophecies of the Bible Reveal an Unmarried Savior (Messiah) According to the Bible's prophetic enactment of the crucifixion of Jesus Genesis Chapter 22, where Abraham offers his, "only Son" {Isaac is the "only Son" of Abraham in that he was the only child of Abraham to receive an inheritance in the Promise Land. A person is designated a child prior to receiving the father's inheritance and becomes a Son when designated to receive an inheritance without the inheritance the status as "child" remains. Abraham was the father of many children but in Isaac was his "only Son," only inheritor.} and Isaac was an unmarried son, during the prophetic enactment of the sacrifice on Mt. Moriah (Calvary) the same location where Jesus was later crucified. It is then after the sacrifice and in Genesis chapter 24 that the Bible reveals the sending of the servant Eliezer (God's Comforter) [Holy Spirit] to go and to gather the bride for the unmarried Isaac, portraying an illustration of Jesus and His Church. The Old Testament prophecies leave no room for any marriage of Jesus prior to His Cross and His Resurrection but do portray the Glorious Wedding union to the Church yet to come. Jesus could not marry the Church or any individual prior to the Cross as the remedy for sin did not yet exist. Any marriage prior to the Cross would mean that Jesus was marring a sinner and really teachings of an earthly marriage of Jesus are yet another false set of teachings that are attempting to do away with the need of mankind for the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross and of His Glorious Resurrection and it is an attempt to deny the special relationship that Jesus has with His Bride "The Church".
