The wedding ceremony is over. The cake has been eaten. The rice has been thrown. Solomon and the Shulamite have changed into their traveling clothes and they are on their way on their honeymoon. They are anxiously awaiting the wedding night.
Do you remember your wedding night? Perhaps most of you had unusual things take place on that wedding night. I remember my wedding night quite well.

Titus 1, verse 15 says, "To the pure, all things are pure. But to them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure. Even their mind and conscious is defiled." So if you have come in here this morning and you planned to be offended, I'm sure there is something I'm going to say which is going to offend you. But there should actually be nothing objectionable about what I'm going to say, but it may be just a little bit uncomfortable. We are normally unaccustomed to talking about these kinds of matters in the setting of a servi ...
