From James Campbell, Friend and Roomate

James brought up an important point that he surmised while reading Ephesians Chapter Five, which talks about a healthy relation between a husband and a wife. It talks about a woman leaving her house and cleaving to a man and becoming his wife.

Transition.

Jesus speaks of His church as both his body and bride. How does that make sense?! Well, when a woman marries a man, they become "one flesh." Well, if the bride of Christ is just that, Christ's wife, then that wife has become the very flesh (or "body") of Christ.
