Bride of Christ
Christians often erroneously brag that they are the "Bride of Christ", but where did they come up with this nonsense?
The word 'church' or 'congregation' in the New Testament is translated from the Greek word 'ekklesia' which comes from two words 'ek' meaning 'out' and 'kaleo' meaning to 'call', so Christians assumed it was they who were being called out, but ekklesia is a Greek feminine noun, so it is clearly being used to identify a women.
Further, ekklesia comes from Ephesians 5:22-33, and if you replace each instance of "church" or "congregation" with "called out female", it becomes instantly obvious that Christians have once again mistranslated scripture, and made it a tenet of their religion.
Ephesians 5:22-33
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husband, as unto the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as the Christ is head of the congregation {ekklesia – called out female}, and it is he who gives saving health to the body. Therefore, as the congregation {ekklesia – called out female} is subject unto the Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives even as the Christ also loved the congregation {ekklesia – called out female} and gave himself for her, that he might sanctify and cleanse her in the washing of water by the word, that he might present her glorious for himself, a congregation {ekklesia – called out female}, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. So ought husbands to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it even as the Lord with his congregation {ekklesia – called out female}: For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and shall be joined unto his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh. This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the congregation {ekklesia – called out female}. Nevertheless, let each one of you do likewise, let each one so love his wife even as himself, and let the wife see that she reverences her husband.

As you can see, it really never made sense when they force "church" or "congregation" into a lesson about marital love.
And if it isn't obvious, the 'called out female' is the true "Bride of Christ" that is written of in the Bible and Zohar.
