Who is the Bride?

[amadeus2]

@amadeus2 Knowledge is just as important as faith is, wisdom can save you from evil ways and so keep you on the narrow path (Proverbs 2:9-11). He tells us everything we need to know mostly through His word, if we just let Him guide us into truth.

I don't disagree with the scripture, but I always look to this verse which speaks of something more important than either knowledge or faith:

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing." I Cor 13:2

I believe [by faith] that our faith correctly applied by the lead of the Holy Spirit will eventually become knowledge. Did Jesus as a man during those 33½ years live by faith or by knowledge? Are we not to be like Him?

"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." Heb 12:2

That looks to me like the end of faith. Jesus is the one that makes it possible for us to get there.

Dear Brother,
You start out with "believers" and then jump to a discussion on defining "believe" which is a totally different topic.
Maybe, the topic title should be "What does it mean to believe and be part of the Bride"?

Still, "No argument here" in that the Bride seems to suggest the believer.

With the Love of Christ Jesus.

Interesting point here.....The church is always referred to as a woman....The woman gives birth to the man child and its the man child that is caught up...not the woman. There is a lot more to this, but you'll have to find it yourselves
|I started out with a definition of believe....a believer is on who believes, That is the same subject

Jesus is coming for His bride very soon...I suspect it will be by the end of August.....I know that many of you will say "We cannot know the time or the hour" but we can know the months and the seasons.....He is coming very very soon!
