Christ yielded up, handed over Himself to humbly serve and sacrificially lay down His rights and position so we could be saved from our sin that separates us from Him. He did this so He could wash us clean from unrighteousness by what He said to make us presentable to Himself as a bride, the church. This means we are made pure and set apart to be pleasing to Him. So must we men also give of ourselves for our wives...
Ephesians 5:25-27
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.
