Sermon by Pastor Sylvia Chan

Today we are going to study another title of the Church.

^ESV Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. (Eph 5:23 ESV)

Here Apostle Paul says that Christ is the head of the church just as the husband is the head of the wife; he compares Christ to the husband and the church to the wife.

Christians often use this verse to illustrate the human relationship between husband and wife, but few study it as the relationship between Christ and the church.
