    Fine with the Catechism (paragraph 789):
  1. the unity of all her members with each other as a result of their union with Christ
  2. Christ as head of the Body
  3. the Church as bride of Christ


As for the other reference, did you know it was from a cult ?

To whom, in your mind does the ‘her’ refer to?{HINT: it is not an org such as The Roman Catholic Church; it is a spiritual reference to ALL believers who have Christ as their Savior.}

I just wanted to show that Christians/believers are who make up the church and collectively comprise the Bride of Christ. We don't have to see an exact term used in the Bible to logically understand a concept or term is Biblical. It appeared you were challenging MHGinTN over the term.

So what? All it shows are numerous places in Scripture where Israel is described as the Wife of the LORD. This "cult" didn't invent those verses from Scripture that refer to Israel as the Wife of the LORD. Did you read them?
