Summary
In this powerful episode from Song of Solomon chapter 4, Alex explores three beautiful ways Christ expresses His love for the church. Discover how Jesus pursues us with:
* Legal Love - He enters into an unbreakable covenant with us
* Affectionate Love - He calls us friends and delights in our company
* Passionate Love - He gave His life on the cross out of crazy love for us
Just like Solomon's bride is described as "a garden locked," believers are securely "locked in" with Christ - never to be separated from His love. This intimate picture from Scripture will transform how you see your relationship with Jesus and inspire you to bear fruit as His beloved.
Key Takeaway: When we truly understand how Christ sees us - beautiful, secure, and deeply loved - our lives naturally become fruitful gardens that reflect His glory.
Perfect for anyone wanting to deepen their relationship with Jesus and understand the security we have in Him.

| 0:39.9 | is, you're locked in. And you will never be able to leave him. You'll, and what does Peter say? If they |
