All Christians are members of the Ekklesia, which is both the body and the bride of our Lord Jesus, the Christos [the Mashiyach]. 

Almost Greek: [Words in italics are translator’s additions.] 

Matthew 25: “Then is when the Kingdom of the Ouranon [Heaven] shall be compared to ten maidens which same taking their lamps, went forth to a meeting of the Bridegroom. Now, five (emergent from them) were prudent and five were stupid. Which same stupid, having taken their lamps, didn’t take with themselves olive oil, but the prudent took olive oil (in their receptacles) with their lamps. Now, the Bridegroom delaying, all nodded off and slept. Now, at midnight an outcry was caused to be. ‘LO! the Bridegroom comes! Go forth into a meeting of Him.’ Then is when all those maidens arose and trimmed the wicks of their lamps. Now, the stupid said to the prudent, ‘Give us emergent from your olive oil because our lamps are going out.’ But the prudent answered, saying, ‘no! lest it not avails to you and to us, but rather go to those selling and buy for yourselves.’ Now, the same going off to buy oil, the Bridegroom came [arrived] and the prepared maidens went in with Him to the nuptials and the door was closed. Now, eventually come the remaining maidens, saying, ‘Kurie! Kurie! open to us.’ But responding, He says, ‘Amen! I say to you, I do not know you.’ Accordingly, watch out! because you not know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man comes.” 

Revelation 21: And I saw a new ouranon [sky] and a new earth for the first ouranos and the first earth went away and the sea isn’t any more [no oceans]. And I saw the hagian city (New Jerusalem) coming down from Theos (emergent from Ouranou [Heaven]), having been prepared as a bride having been adorned for her Husband. And I heard a megales [big, large, huge, great] phones [sound, tone, voice, noise], emergent from Ouranou, saying, “LO! the Tent of Theos is amidst men, and He will encamp amidst them, and they will be His peoples and Theos (their Theos) Himself will be amidst them. And Theos will smear out every tear from their eyes and Death won't be anymore, nor grief nor outcry nor toil won't be anymore because the first creation went away. 

1^st Corinthians 12.12: For the soma [body] is one and has many limbs but all the limbs of the one somatos (being many) are one soma; so also, it is in the Christos. Also, by one Hagios Pneuma, we all ebaptisthemen [were immersed, submerged, baptized] into one soma; whether Jews or Greeks [non-Jews]; whether slaves or free. Also, we were all given to drink into ourselves one Hagios Pneuma for the soma isn’t one limb; conversely, many. 

1^st Corinthians 15.9: For I am the least of the apostolon (who am not fit to be called an apostolos) because I pursued [persecuted] the Ekklesian of Theos. 

1^st Corinthians 28: And whom in fact did Theos place in the ekklesia? Firstly apostolous [ delegates, ambassadors, apostles], secondly prophetas [before-tellers, prophets], thirdly teachers, then works of dunameis [force, power], then charismata [gifts, endowments, faculties, deliverances] of healing, relief [help], pilotage [leadership], kin [families] of glossai [tongues, languages]. Not all are apostoloi. Not all are prophetai. Not all are teachers. Not all are dunameis workers. Not all have charismata of healing. Not all speak glossai! Not all diermineuousi [thoroughly explain, interpret]. But crave the stronger charismata! 

Colossians 1.15: Jesus, Who is the eikon [image, likeness, statue, icon] of the invisible Theos (the firstborn of all creation), because in Him all was created: the things in the ouranois [sky, heavens] and the things upon the earth; the seen [visible] and the invisible (whether thrones or lordships or rank or authorities). All has been created via Him and to Him and He IS before the birth of the whole of creation, and all is presented in Him. Also, He is the Head of the Somatos, the Ekklesias. 

Colossians1.24: Now, I rejoice in my sufferings over you and supplement the deficit of the stresses of the Christou in my flesh, over His Somatos, which is the Ekklesia. 

Acts 2.47: And the Kurios annexed to the Ekklesia those sozomenous [being made safe, being saved] down to day by day. 

Hebrews 12.22: But you have drawn near Mount Zion and a city of the living Theos, to an above-the-sky [heavenly] Jerusalem; to myriads of aggelon [messengers, angels]; to a mass assemblage, an Ekklesia of the first-born ones, having been perfected [completed]; to Jesus, Mediator of a new blood covenant and to sprinkling of blood that is speaking better words than those of Abel. 

Ephesians 1.22: And He [Father God] seated Him [Jesus] at His right above the sky [in Heaven], far above all rule and authority, all dunameos and lordship, and every name being named (not only in this age, but also in the coming age), and subjected all under Jesus’ feet and gave Jesus to be Head over everything to the Ekklesia which is Jesus’ Soma; the fullness of the One filling all with all.
