    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    So, the 12 disciples were given the revelation of the Body of Christ? Then why was Peter separating himself from the Gentiles? (Gal. 2: 11 16)

    Where does God say He is moving?

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yes, they all preached Jesus is the way, however, they did not preach the same inheritance.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    `But you have come to MOUNT ZION and to the CITY.` (Heb. 12: 22) My English tells me that I read TWO parts there - one for ruling and one for the city.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Paul says he is going to present his disciples to the Lord. Does Paul present us to the Lord? No. The Lord Himself will present us. (Jude 24)

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    But saying `heaven comes to earth,` you are saying that the heavens above will be incorporated onto this ole earth. That to me is mind boggling.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Good morning David. I am so pleased to be having this great discussion with you and others. I know that it is a shock to you for you have been taught differently. And so was I. However, this is the last great truth to be clarified across the Bodu - the eternal purposes of God, and then we will...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    So why didn`t God just make ONE group to start with? Why all the working with the nations and Jews for centuries. God is omniscient and knew they could never in their fallen state obey Him.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    So, the Apostle Paul was never given the revelation of the Body of Christ? (Eph. 3: 3 - 7) Note: further revelation than the 12 apostles.

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Have you ever looked up at the universal heavens? Well, how is all that going to fit on this speck of dirt?

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Yes, the heavenly Jerusalem is the `mother of us all.` And the heavenly Jerusalem is made up of two parts, (as is the earthly one). The city is NOT on the hill but further down. They are separate. King David had the ruling part on Mount Zion and the people were in the city further down. 1...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    The Holy City is AS, yes, AS, a symbol, NOT real. It has the glory of God on it. And the people in that city are the OT saints. for they were promised it. (Heb. 11: 16) We, however, the Body of Christ, are promised the very throne of Christ in the highest. (Rev. 3: 21 4: 2 - 4) `Let no one...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    All to do with Israel. What happened to the `New Man,` becoming the `Perfect Man?` (Eph. 2: 15 4: 13)

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    So why did God make them in the first place and not all together in the first century. I think you are missing details of God`s purpose for them. The OT saints are promised the city, (Heb. 11: 16) whereas we, the Body of Christ have been promised the throne - Christ`s own throne in the highest...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    `Heaven is my throne and the earth my footstool.` (Isa. 66: 1) The city comes OUT of heaven FROM God. It was only promised to the OT saints. (Heb. 11: 16)
  16. Marilyn C

    What is our Inheritance?

    Yes, eternal life on the new earth. (Rev. 21: 24). The Body of Christ is called out of the nations and will have glorified bodies like unto the Lord`s made for the realms above.
  17. Marilyn C

    What is our Inheritance?

    The Body of Christ is NOT mentioned in the Old Testament for it was not revealed then. (Eph. 3: 1 - 5)
  18. Marilyn C

    What is our Inheritance?

    I believe we inherit more than just the new earth. We will be reigning from the Lord`s own throne in the highest over ALL God`s great kingdom. (Rev. 3: 21)
  19. Marilyn C

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    `God having provided SOMETHING BETTER for us, that they should not be made perfect without us.` (Heb. 11: 40) The Body of Christ will rule from the highest, (Rev. 3: 21) and later the Old Testament saints will go down in the city to the Universal realm. We, the Body of Christ had to be in place...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    One Fold is all under Christ not all in one group. If all God wanted was the Body of Christ He could have made it 6 centuries ago. Mount Zion AND the city. Two parts to the heavenly Jerusalem. Mount Zion - Christ`s seat of Power and authority (Ps. 2: 6) and where the Body of Christ will rule...
