2 | Is the bride of christ the church? | Eph 5:32 | Emmaus | 143804 | ||
Yes. Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. Eph 5:24 But as the church is subject to Christ, so also the wives ought to be to their husbands in everything. Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, Eph 5:29 for no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ also does the church, Eph 5:32 This mystery is great; but I am speaking with reference to Christ and the church. Matt 9:15 And Jesus said to them, "The attendants of the bridegroom cannot mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them, can they? But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast. Matt 25:1 "Then the kingdom of heaven will be comparable to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 3 Matt 25:5 "Now while the bridegroom was delaying, they all got drowsy and began to sleep. 4 Matt 25:6 "But at midnight there was a shout, 'Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.' 5 Matt 25:10 "And while they were going away to make the purchase, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut. 6 Mark 2:19 And Jesus said to them, "While the bridegroom is with them, the attendants of the bridegroom cannot fast, can they? So long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. 7 Mark 2:20 "But the days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in that day. 8 Luke 5:34 And Jesus said to them, "You cannot make the attendants of the bridegroom fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you? 9 Luke 5:35 "But the days will come; and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, then they will fast in those days." 10 John 3:29 "He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine has been made full. 12 Rev 18:23 and the light of a lamp will not shine in you any longer; and the voice of the bridegroom and bride will not be heard in you any longer; for your merchants were the great men of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery. 13 Rev 19:7 "Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready." 14 Rev 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. Rev 22:17 The Spirit and the bride say, "Come." And let the one who hears say, "Come." And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wishes take the water of life without cost. |

3 | Is the bride of christ the church? | Eph 5:32 | SamJohnson | 144447 | ||
Sorry, I cannot agree. The bride of Christ is the city Jerusalem according to Rev. 21:2 in your list. The church is the body of Christ as Eph 5: 29 clearly shows | ||||||
4 | Is the bride of christ the church? | Eph 5:32 | Hank | 144454 | ||
Sam :: The text of Revelation 21:2 does not say that new Jerusalem IS the bride of Christ. What it says is "made ready AS A BRIDE ADORNED FOR HER HUSBAND" (caps supplied for emphasis). "Bride" is an important NT metaphor for the church. See Matthew 25:1-13 and Ephesians 5:25-27. Of course the church is also referred to as Christ's body (See 1 Cor. 12:27). --Hank | ||||||
