Jehovah's bride? Aren't the anointed JESUS' Bride (the Bride of Christ)?
According to the WTS, God's bride is made up of the angels........
So how did God hold David responsible for his disobedience?
His first son by Bath-sheba died?
David's wives would be violated in public (by Absalom his son eventually)
Trouble would not depart from David's household
But David himself continued living and ruling as king (had he been a jw, he most likely would have been removed if an elder)
2 Samuel chapter 12 (NLT)
1 The LORD sent Nathan the prophet to tell David ...
7 "... The LORD, the God of Israel, says, 'I anointed you king of Israel and saved you from the power of Saul. 8 I gave you his house and his wives and the kingdoms of Israel and Judah. And if that had not been enough, I would have given you much, much more. 9 Why, then, have you despised the word of the LORD and done this horrible deed? For you have murdered Uriah and stolen his wife. 10 From this time on, the sword will be a constant threat to your family, because you have despised me by taking Uriah's wife to be your own.
11 "'Because of what you have done, I, the LORD, will cause your own household to rebel against you. I will give your wives to another man, and he will go to bed with them in public view. 12 You did it secretly, but I will do this to you openly in the sight of all Israel.'"
