Scripture calls the Church a wife, the bride of the Lamb, and compares it to the holy city of Jerusalem, prepared, and “as a bride adorned for her husband” (Rev.21:2). The Scripture also compares the Church of God with the construction of a building, which “fitly framed together, groweth vnto an holy Temple in the Lord” (Eph.2:21). In the Gospels there are also types of the holy Temple in the Lord.
Name the Lord Jesus Christ will be given to Christ and the Church. In this Greatness, “all the fulnesse of the Godhead” will dwell bodily (Col.2:9). Scripture shows us the Lord Jesus Christ in many types. In the description of the face and clothes of Jesus after His transfiguration on a high mountain, as well as in the appearance of a cloud that overshadowed His disciples, the Scripture shows us the holy Temple in the Lord: “And was transfigured before them, and his face did shine as the Sunne, and his raiment was white as the light” (Matt.17:2).
