THE MARRIAGE TREE
"The Power Of Marriages Made In Heaven," Part 1
Genesis 2:18-25
Today you can go to marriage seminars on finances, in-laws,
sexual happiness, and every other kind of thing in order to make a
marriage successful. You can look in women's magazines and books, but
there is one kind of marriage that God will truly bless. It has the power of

a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping,

the place with flesh.
22. Then the Lord God made a woman from
the rib he had taken out of the man, and he
