God's rules regarding marriage are not arbitrary. Everything in human marriage is to be, Ephesians 5:25, 'with reference to Christ and the church.' That's why within marriage there are male and female roles - whereby the husband shows Christ and the wife shows the church. That's why God forbids divorce - because Jesus would never leave us nor would we desire to leave Him. That's why sex before marriage is wrong - because the joining of us and Christ only happened after a covenant was made. That's why marriage in God's economy is between one man and one woman - because Jesus didn't marry Himself nor did the church marry herself. That's why married children leave their parents to form a new union - because the union with Christ is to be dominating over all other relationships. That's why within marriage couples now become one flesh - because we are in Christ and He is in us. That's why adultery is wrong - because God would never cheat on us nor should we spiritually cheat on Him by running after other gods.
SAUCE
Find a saucepan that's wide enough to hold the asparagus spears
lengthwise and set it over medium-high heat. Fill about three quarters with
water, add the salt and bring to a boil. Plunge the spears into the boiling
water, return to a boil and cook until the spears are just tender when
pierced with a fork, about 2 to minutes depending on their thicknes (do not
overcook). Rinse under cold running water to stop the cooking, then drain
on a clean kitchen towel.
To prepare the sauce, whisk together the orange juice, orange rind, olive
oil sesame oil, and coarse salt and pepper until well blended. Arrange the
asparagus on a large serving platter with dipping sauce on the side. Serve
warm or cold.
