Biblical Complementarianism

N.T. Wright (whom I've never listened to before; didn't really know anything about him) is asked a question about "Gay Marriage", and presents a very interesting concept from a much wider view:

The Biblical design of our (pre-Fall original and future restored) cosmos is one of complementary contrasts:

• Light - Dark
• Day - Night
• Heaven - Earth
• Land - Seas
• Birds (flying in air) - Fish ("flying" in water)
• Male - Female
• God (Christ) - Humans (Church)
• New Heaven - New Earth
• Lion - Lamb
• Body - Spirit

This is the Design. Anything else is something other than the Design.
