The true church of Jesus Christ is composed of the totality of "born again" people, both Jews and Gentiles. People washed in the precious blood of Christ. The church of Jesus Christ is not an organization; it is a living organism, made up of all believers, (John 3: 3-6). He is the head of the church, and we, the born again, are his body, we are his church, and he is our blessed savior, (Ephesians 5: 21-24).
The true church of Jesus Christ are all those people who have been born again with a single spirit and a single truth where Jesus Christ is the author and owner of it.
¿Who will be the bride of the lamb?
We, the church, are called to fight to become the bride of the lamb and then his wife. After the new birth, the Lord wants to sanctify and prepare his bride for weddings. This is the work of the Holy Spirit. It is our responsibility to totally renounce the world and its desires; to turn away from everything that God does not like. Being a bride of the lamb demands a total consecration to God; to later be his wife.
As beautiful as a wedding here on earth is, it is still a weak image of what the Lamb's Wedding will be like.
We know how to make a girlfriend and how to prepare for the day of his marriage, even knowing that everything is temporary, that death can separate you from your beloved. With more longing, dedication, and fidelity we must prepare ourselves for that glorious event! The bride of the lamb has to be something very special and delicate. In Him we have overcome death; there will be no death; and we will be with him forever, (1 Corinthians 15: 50-58).
In Ephesians 5: 25-27, the Bible tells us how we should prepare to be the bride of the lamb. Verse 27 tells us:
"a glorious church, which had no stain or wrinkle or any such thing, but was holy and without blemish." Only sanctified believers will form the link with Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. In Revelation 21: 9, an angel tells John: "Come up here, I will show you the bride, the wife of the lamb."
The Weddings of the Lamb will be celebrated in heaven. The bride will be snatched from the earth by the Holy Spirit and given by Him to the Lord Jesus. This is a glorious and sublime event, where Jesus will be the center of attention. He will literally be in the center, with all its radiance and glory when his bride is delivered, clean and glorious.
In Revelation 19: 7-8 it says:
"Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory: for the marriage of the lamb has come, and his wife has prepared herself, and she has been granted to wear fine linen, clean and bright, for fine linen is the righteous acts of the Saints".
The church of Jesus Christ has to be completely sanctified; "May the same God of peace sanctify you completely, and your whole being, spirit, soul and body, be kept blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."
