The "Bride of Christ" is the Church Universal--Christ's Body made up of all justified and sanctified believers.

Christ is the "Bridegroom", the Church is His Bride.

It's Jesus' Church. Check out Eph 5:22-33 for the illustration put into action by the Apostle Paul.

Interestingly, Jesus' example for the church is to be the husband's pattern of giving for his wife.

yep it's the Church. i'm glad you are asking questions and are learning. pretty soon, God will give you direct answers as you learn to hear His voice more clearly. keep pursuing Him, and always depend on His Word as the final truth and the final authority in all things. that is your ultimate source of revelation and insight. every answer and response that you get from man, you MUST weigh it against the Word. that is your measuring rod. and always pray and ask the Holy Spirit to lead and guide you into all truth.

Be blessed!
