Not ALL churches are the bride of Christ, as some harbor false teachers—those that teach Christians that they need not read Revelations because they will “fly away” do NOT find favor with our Lord-—Smyrna and Philadelphia are the churches that found favor with the Father, as they are the ones that teach of the Kenites—the spawn of Cain, the first murderer, and they teach from God’s word, NOT man’s word.
The anti-christ will come in peace and prosperity so as to fool those who will believe he is the true God-—would YOU believe someone coming with red horns and blood drooling from his mouth who wreaks havoc on humanity to be the coming of our Lord? No, because this treatment of humanity is not Christ-like. Satan will “play” Christ, to fool those who think they will fly away out of any danger. Christ LOVES those that read His word and expect to witness against the false christ-—as Christians, we need to prepare to stay RIGHT HERE ON EARTH and WARN our fellow Christians that the anti-christ comes BEFORE Christ’s return and witness against satan!
Judgement will start at the pulpit, as “teachers” should teach God’s word, not man’s (or Hollywood’s) interpretation of His word.
No church is the Bride of Christ.
The Bride of Christ IS the church, the true church, the body of believers.
No denomination can claim to be that bride and no members of said denomination can make that claim.
We these days, have a wrong view of what really constitutes the church as defined by Scripture. It is NOT a denomination, or building, or organization. It is the body of believers who have truly put their their faith in Christ and are the redeemed.
