    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    In other words, if they want to interpret "I will build My Church" as "the remnant of Israel Church", excluding "the body of Christ Church", then they would have to find someone else who was building "the body of Christ Church" LOL!

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    1. Yes, everyone claims their posts are Bible teaching. 2. I was being sarcastic, because these people are ridiculous.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    In their perspective, there is "the church of the remnant of Israel" and "the church of the body of Christ" (the "remnant of Israel Church" isn't part of the "body of Christ Church")--plus, Christ addresses "the churches" (in Revelation) LOL!

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yeah, but that's the Church that CHRIST is building--the rest of the Churches aren't being built by Christ! LOL!

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    According to you, the Apostles disobeyed God, and did not go and teach the nations to observe what ever things He taught them to observe. LOL OK Isn't that a weird foundation to build on--"My nonsense has to be correct--and, in order for it to be correct, Christ's Apostles were disobedient to...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    "in order that we might bear fruit for God" (instead of for death) removes any ambiguity.

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    Oh, no, I was drawn off topic into the black hole debate LOL

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    Doing good results in a harvest of eternal life "in due time" if we persist therein. John 5:28“Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, 29and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    How are you so mixed up then? lol Yeah, Peter didn't understand--I agree. Still, eventually, they went, so... what's your point? They went to the nations and taught the nations to observe all things Christ taught them to observe--meaning that your nonsensical idea that "Oh, no, that was...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yeah, Romans 7 says we're the wife married to a new husband bearing fruit to God.

    OSAS : Gnostic Heresy

    You know what would be really cool? If people stuck to the topic.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    1. There is no question about whether or not we who are in Christ, the Seed of Abraham, are heirs : 29And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s descendants, heirs according to promise. 2. The passage tells you at least one of the blessings (those who don't have it are "cursed" bc they...

    @Marilyn C Anyway, again, got to do some sleeping.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    It makes no sense, actually : based on your own logic, if anyone would be a part of "congregation of Israel", it would be Paul. It's just an arbitrary decision you've made to not follow your own logic and have him in "congregation of Israel", but part of something else.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Oh, OK, Ms. "Bible Scholar", the Apostles never went to the nations--they disobeyed Jesus Christ. No, we don't have Thomas going to India in the Bible, but we do have Peter going to the Gentiles (which is another word for "the nations"). 1. Peter taught that we were all being built up into a...

    Right, you asked when we became "feminine"--there's your answer.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Jesus said He would build His church, because He understands the Church global to be a singular entity--just as Paul says "you are members of His body--one is an eye, one is a hand". Are you saying Jesus is only building the "ekklesia of Israel", a made-up term, but He isn't building...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Like that time when Peter went to Cornelius, a Gentile, or when Thomas went to India? Jesus says a scribe or lawyer who converts brings forth from his treasury things both new and old--therefore, Paul taught the same as Peter, et al, he just went into further detail. If not, Paul couldn't have...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Please give Scripture where "ekklesia of Israel" appears in the New Covenant. Eve was literally Adam's own body LOL Ask Paul, who is "in pains of labor" (Gal 4:19), and who says we are "bearing fruit to God" together with Christ (Ro 7).

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Nope, He said "go disciple the nations teaching them to observe all things I taught you", so it applies to all believers.
