I suppose the question of consideration, is if "The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit" 1 Corinthians 15:45-- What then would the Bride of each be by their lineages, respectively?
I would suggest that this is a matter of that which is born of the flesh being flesh and that which is born of the spirit being spirit (John 3:6).
My conclusion then, is that all who are first born according to and after the lineage of Eve are born of the flesh, and all who are born [again] of the spirit of God are the Bride of Christ--meaning none of flesh and blood, but only spirit. This being just another clear image of the distinction between the flesh and the spirit...the one returning to the dust, while the other is returned to God in Christ...having become His Bride. But instead of the two becoming one flesh as the example first given in the flesh, the two become one spirit.
