To be one with somebody is about as close as you can possibly be with someone – your relationship is intimate. In the bible, the only thing ever compared to the relationship of Christ and His Church is husband and wife – the two becoming one (Ephesians 5). A marriage is an intimate relationship. Throughout scripture we see the Church referred to as the bride of Christ. If we are His bride, then there must be a closeness, a oneness – an intimacy that we have with Him and Him alone. Worship is one way we can be intimate with God. When we are intimate with God – showing a Public Display of Affection – we are never corrected or disciplined by Him, rather we are comforted and blessed. Your life and commitment to God should be on display for all to see. We must live a life of worship that draws others to the One we have committed our lives to.
