That is understandable you believe that, since Catholics do not believe they obtain Salvation when they believe and follow Jesus UNTIL they have ‘kept their position’ so to speak. The Bride of Christ is somewhat a mystery to a Catholic mind.
That is so true: the Bride of Christ is a sacred Mystery, meaning that no matter how much we know or can learn, there is much that is a marvel going beyond the grasp of the human mind.
I absolutely love Bridal Theology. So important to the Church.
And the Spirit and the bride say, "Come."
And let him that heareth say, "Come."
And let him that is athirst come.
And whosoever will,
let him take the water of life freely.
[Revelation 22:17]
