SCRIPTURES about the Bride :

• MATTHEW 25:1-13 THE WISE VIRGINS

Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish. 3 They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.10 And while they went to buy, the Bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

image, after our likeness: and let them

have dominion over the fish of the sea, and

over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth

upon the earth.27 So God created man in his [own]

image, in the image of God created he

him; male and female created he

One BodyGENESIS 2:23

And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the

flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a

woman, and brought her unto the man.

And Adam said, This [is] now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh:

she shall be called Woman, because she was

taken out of Man.

EPHESIANS 5:30-32

30 For we are members of His

body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall

be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

One Body

The Bride :Her NAME is written in the Lamb’s Book of Life

REVELATION 13:8

“And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship *him, whose names

are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the

foundation of the world.”

*him = referring to the Anti-Christ

The Bride :SINLESS, OVERCOMER

EXODUS 32:33

“ And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him

will I blot out of my book.”

REVELATION 3:5

“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the

book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father,

and before his angels.”

The Bride :CHOSEN before the foundation of the world

EPHESIANS 1:3

3 ¶ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all

spiritual blessings in heavenly [places] in Christ: 4 According as He hath chosen us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in

love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to

himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the

beloved.11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance,

being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the

counsel of his own will:

The Bride :foreknown, called, justified & glorified

ROMANS 8:28

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are

the called according to [his] purpose.

29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate [to be]

conformed to the image of his Son, that He might be the firstborn

among many brethren. 30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also

called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he

justified, them he also glorified.

The Bride :ELECTED BY GOD

ROMANS 9:13-18

13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

14 What shall we say then? [Is there] unrighteousness with God? God forbid.

15 For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I

will have compassion. 16 So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth,

but of God that sheweth mercy. 17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my

power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the

earth. 18 Therefore hath He mercy on whom he

will have mercy, and whom He will He hardeneth.

The BrideThe Elect

II PETER 1:10

Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

MATTHEW 24:24

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.COLOSSIANS 3:12

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind…

ROMANS 8:33

Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.

The Bride is “Redeemed”

GALATIANS 3:13“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us.”

REVELATION 5:9And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

There is a “previous ownership”

HEBREWS 9:22- “And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.”

• II CORINTHIANS 4:3-4

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

• LUKE 10:21 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

The Gospel is hid to them that are outside the Bride..

• JUDE 1:4For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

• I PETER 2:8And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the Word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. Examples: Cain, Judas, Balaam, Pharoah…

Evil men are also foreknown ..

• ISAIAH 45:6-7“That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that [there is] none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.”

• PROVERBS 16:4The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

God is still in full control ..

Frequently Asked Questions on REDEMPTION:

1. WHAT WAS THE ORIGINAL SIN ?2. WHY WAS ‘BLOOD” GOD’S REQUIREMENT FOR SIN ?3. WAS IT AN APPLE THAT EVE DID EAT ?4. WHY WAS THE SERPENT’S CURSED INTO “CRAWLING” ? (GEN 3:14)5. WHY DID GOD SAID TO THE SERPENT THAT “ I WILL PUT ENMITY BETWEEN YOUR SEED AND THE WOMAN’S SEED” ? (GEN 3:15)6. WHAT WAS THE “MISSING LINK” ?

The First and the second

ADAMROMANS 5:12

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the

world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men,

for that all have sinned:

ROMANS 5:17

17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by one;

much more they which receive abundance of grace

and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in

life by one, Jesus Christ.

THE ORIGINAL SIN

And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. And the LORD God said unto the

serpent, because thou hast done this, thou [art]

cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of

the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. Unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed [is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life..

GEN. 3:13-17

CLUES on the ORIGINAL SIN

• 1. SERPENT = MOST SUBTIL THAN ANY BEAST; HE SPEAKS LIKE A HUMAN BEING

• 2. ADAM AND EVE, AFTER EATING THE FRUIT, REALIZED THAT THEY WERE NAKED

• 3. THEY COVERED THEIR PRIVATE PARTS, NOT THEIR MOUTH

• 4. THE PUNISHMENT FOR EVE WAS TO BEAR MORE CHILDREN IN PAIN AND SORROW, NOT EATING MORE APPLES (GEN 3:16)

• 5. THE ORIGINAL CREATION WAS NOT BY SEX; WHO INTRODUCED SEX?

• 6. ARE WE NOT THE “FRUIT” OF OUR MOTHER AND FATHER?

CLUES on the ORIGINAL SIN

• 7. EVE BORE TWO CHILDREN (TWINS)– ONE CAIN WHO MURDERED ABEL• ( I JOHN 3:12- Not as Cain, [who] was

of that wicked one, and slew his brother.)

• 8. ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE, CAIN IS NOT ADAM’S SON,

• Jude 1:14 says that “ENOCH was the SEVENTH from Adam”, which confirms that CAIN was really NOT the son of Adam, but the SON of the SERPENT. The genealogies of ADAM was on this wise: (1) Adam, (2) Seth, (3) Enos, (4) Cainan, (5) Mahaleel, (6) Jared, (7) Enoch.

JESUS INTRODUCED TO US THE NEW BIRTH(BACK TO THE ORIGINAL CREATION)

• JOB 14:1Man that is born of a woman [is] of few days, and full of trouble.

• JOHN 3:5-6Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

• That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

• II CORINTHIANS 5:17-19• Therefore if any man [be] in Christ,

[he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

• And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

• To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

THE NEW BIRTH(BACK TO THE ORIGINAL CREATION)

JEHOVAH WAS MADE FLESH TO REDEEM US

• I TIMOTHY 3:16

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

• HEBREWS 9:11

But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;

• Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption [for us].

The OLD Testament Tabernacle

The Law cannot make us Perfect

• HEBREWS 10:1For the law having a shadow of good things to come, [and] not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.

• ROMANS 3:20Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law [is] the knowledge of sin.

• ROMANS 3:28Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

The Present Truth• I THESSALONIANS 4:15• 15 For this we say unto you by the

word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

• 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

• 17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

• 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
