From Old Testament to New Testament, and through to the present day, Scarlet and White illuminates the ways in which the gospel story is the story of God redeeming sinners to create a Bride for Himself. It seeks to lead the reader along the scarlet tapestry woven throughout Scripture, continually pointing to Christ’s plan to secure His Bride through His own blood. By focusing primarily on one biblical metaphor—that of the Bride of Christ—Scarlet and White is able to help readers understand the biblical, historical, and practical implications of this doctrine.

“Pastor Chris Marley’s book, Scarlet and White, delves into the mystery of Christ’s relationship with His church. The author is deeply steeped in a strong theological background, and because of his unwavering fidelity to Scripture, he has a clear understanding of both the subject at hand as well as other related biblical texts. This topic has been avoided by most theologians who fear merely romanticizing it. However, one might see the prime importance of this relationship by its pervasiveness both in the Old and New Testaments, often times under the cover of metaphors, similes, and allegories. Therefore, a firm understanding of this relationship proves invaluable for one’s Christian walk, as well as one’s marriage. Once you have started reading this book, you won’t want to put it down.” DR. RAYMOND PERRON, Author, Missionary, Professor at Faculté de théologie in Montreal & Institute for Reformed Baptist Studies
