    Many of the church's views on these doctrinal pillars have been revised in recent years. With a spirit of honest examination, the church has realized that they were not quite right. With that said, I believe its time to take a closer look at the \\"Bride of Christ\\" doctrine as well.

    3. If the Church were \\"the bride, the Lamb's wife,\\" then the angel in Revelation 21:9-10 would have shown \\"the Church,\\" not the Holy Jerusalem. For example, when it comes right down to it, my wife is limited in her authority over me because she is a separate person. It's not that way with the body of Christ. He gave us all of His authority as k...

    5. Christians are repeatedly called \\"sons of God,\\" \\"the body of Christ,\\" and \\"the church\\" throughout the New Testament but are never called \\"the bride of Christ.\\"

    Because of the free gift of grace, we are already righteous and without spot nor blemish in the Lord's sight. We are already ready! Therefore, it stands to reason that the church can't be the one \\"getting herself ready.\\" The \\"Bride of Christ\\" then must refer to something or someone else! The \\"bride\\" must refer, not to the church, but to the H...

    Jesus never told His disciples He would someday be their bride. Paul didn't say we are the bride. In fact, nowhere in scriptures does it ever say Christians are the bride of Christ. Not only that, it just seems strange.

    What does the word say about the \\"Bride of Christ\\"? Nothing really. The term \\"Bride of Christ\\" is nowhere in the Bible. Aside from being first coined by the Roman Catholic Church, this term has been invented out of perceived inferences of certain passages that says God's relationship to us is \\"as a bride\\". These passages are all parables or s...

    This passage does not say the body of Christ is the the Lamb's wife. It does not say Israel is the Lamb's wife. It clearly states however that \\"that great city, the Holy Jerusalem\\" is the Lamb's wife. In verse 10, it also says that John the Revelator saw that great city descending down from heaven adorned as a bride. He doesn't even refer to it a...

    It goes without saying that the ten virgins are not this groom's wife. They are only guests trying to get into the wedding.

    Some have said the Lord would not marry a city, but here the Lord is married to the land. It is not a stretch that He could be married to a city if He wants, as has been indicated in Revelation 21:9-10. God can do what He wants, whether we understand it or not. After all, when did God ever do anything that really made sense to us? In the Old Testam...

    In addition to devaluing His gift of righteousness, the \\"Bride of Christ\\" doctrine also devalues our authority and position in Christ. Being in his body is much more powerful than simply being his bride.

    The term \\"Bride of Christ\\" has it roots in the Roman Catholic Church. You probably know the clergy or priests of the Roman Catholic Church \\"marries\\" their church, taking an oath to celebacy. As a result, the term \\"Bride of Christ\\" was eventually coined in relation to this practice. Today, this concept and terminology has spilled over into our...

    For example, it can be inferred that the baptism of the Holy Spirit was for the early church only, and that God doesn't operate that way today. For centuries the church, by and large, had been robbed of the comfort, revelation, ability, and power found in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I'm glad we don't believe that's true anymore.

  2. 9 de ene. de 2016 · In Ephesians 5:22-33, a passage often used to make the case that the church is the bride of Christ, the apostle Paul is making the following point: like the body of Christ is one body with many parts, the two married are also one body in the exact same way, like the body of Christ—like marriage.

  3. 4 de ene. de 2022 · Answer. The imagery and symbolism of marriage is applied to Christ and the body of believers known as the church. The church is comprised of those who have trusted in Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and have received eternal life. Christ, the Bridegroom, has sacrificially and lovingly chosen the church to be His bride ( Ephesians 5:25–27 ).

  5. 4 de abr. de 2004 · We seek to awaken faith in Christ, which creates his bride; and we seek to deepen love for Christ, which purifies his bride. It sobers and humbles this pastoral staff. The church is not ours. You belong to Jesus, not us. John the Baptist saw this and dared not lay any claim to Jesus’ bride.

  6. Reveal the little known truth that we the church are the Body and the Body only. This book dispels the popular, false Bride Doctrine for what it is, a lie from the pit of hell.
