Summary: Jesus made the Church -- all of us who follow Him -- the "bride of Christ", and He loved her enough to die for her. Now it's our turn, as the Church, to respond to Him in love. In the same way that physical foreplay is used to lead to intimacy in marriage, spiritual foreplay is used to lead to intimacy with the Lord. And when we give Him our time and our attention in worship and adoration, we demonstrate that our hearts truly love the One who first loved us.
