Christ and His Body are One, One Flesh. Eve was Adam Gen 5:1-2
1This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;
2Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.
Then God brought the Woman to the Man later Gen 2:20-24
20And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
21And 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;
22And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23And 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.
24Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
This pictured Christ and His Bride the Church Eph 5:30-32
30For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
31For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
32 This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ and the church.
I see, God has kept you from knowing the Mystery !
Rom 2:28-29
28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
The bride is the Body of Christ which is Israel. Christ is espoused to the Church 2 Cor 11:2
2For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
Hi and you are just as bad as godluz , and will never advance in knowledge of the word , just as your understanding of " born again " is a CRIPPLED and bad theology .
I will answer 2 Cor 11:2 tomorrow as I have no time today , dan p
The body of Christ is the true church. The body of Christ: identified (Col. 1:24), described (Eph. 2:16), Christ, the head of (Eph. 1:22), Christ dwells in (Eph. 1:23).

Yes, Israel, they are the same ! Christ the Head of the Church gives repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel His Church Acts 5:31
31Him[Christ] hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.
The same as here Acts 26:18
To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Here Eph 1:7
In whom[Christ] we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;

I know how to use strongs and vines, they say nothing about Israel not being the Church.
Christ is Israel in the Truest sense Isa 49:3, and Christ and His Church are One, So that makes the Church Israel !

Hi , and you are going in a circle and NO WHERE does Paul say that the BRIDE is the Body of Christ , and you are looking BAD to all who are reading this , dan p
NO WHERE does Paul say that the BRIDE is the Body of Christ
Where does Paul deny that the Body of Christ is not the Bride of Christ ? In fact, He writes very succinctly that the Church was espoused to Christ 2 Cor 11:2
For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

Hi , and you do not KNOW how to use VINE'S as ESPOUSED/HARMOZO means to " fit or join " ( from HARMOS , a joint , joining ; the root AR , signifying to fit !!
Husband , ANER , here means MAN !!
All should know that all believers today are " in Christ " and Gal 3:28 says that in the Body there can NOT be Jew , Greek , slave , and there can NOT be Male and Female for we are ONE " in Christ " , and Eph 2:15 explains , we are a New Man and this explains WHY I had to leave Acts 2 and go to Acts 9:6 !!
The New Man is a new Creation never before seen in the bible or in the Gospels !!
What's new?
