Baptist Perpetuity proven fron A Living Bride.

A DEAD BRIDE?

“You also are become dead to the law by the Body of Christ; that you should be married to Another, even to Him Who is Raised from the Dead” [Romans 7:4].

“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and Gave Himself for It” [Ephesians 5:25 — read on through verse 32].
***
These and other Scriptures compare the spiritual relationship of Christ and His churches to the human marriage relationship.
…
That the “wedding” is still future is shown by Matthew 22:1-3; 25:1-13; and Revelation 21:2.
…
Was our Lord at any time betrothed to a dead bride?
…
After He Gave Himself for her, that He might Sanctify and Cleanse her by the Washing of water in the Word, that He might present her to Himself in Glory — after all this, was there ever a time when nowhere on Earth could be found a church that could be truly called His Bride?
…
Was there ever a time when the only “Christianity” on Earth was the religion of A spiritual WHORE and her harlot DAUGHTERS?
Perish the thought!
But if it be so, what are all the FALSE ‘churches’ today but WHORES and offspring of harlots?

God's people who are Saved on Earth are in The Kingdom of The Son, Jesus.

God's people who have followed The Lord's Action and Command to be baptized by The Authority of a New Testament church Organized as the Kind of church Jesus Built, that has Scriptural Authority, are joined to one of Jesus's Candlesticks, where their Light Shines for the World to see.

They are members of a New Testament church body that gathers together and is congregated to Worship God, in an assembly.

When that church, as a specific body with members, in particular, are Faithful to Jesus and The New Testament, they are the Bride of Christ. The 'guests at the Wedding' are God's children, remaining, who were in The Kingdom of Jesus, as Saved souls, who did not join a Scriptural assembly, by Scriptural Baptism. Thus, "all of God's children" in The Kingdom of God are not Whores and Harlots. Those are speaking of lost religious heretics who claim 'a jesus', and/ or 'bible', but teach and preach nothing of or for God. It is then possible for Saved Individuals to commit 'Spiritual Adultery'. That would be when a religious organization begins with the premise that "lost souls can choose to go to Heaven, whether Jesus Was Sent by God or not".

That premise to have as a beginning point makes every word they say demonic. That is not The Way God Planned it.
