Revelation Mysteries: Distinguishing the Marriage of the Lamb from the Marriage Supper
The bride is shown in Revelation 19:7, a collective depiction of the faithful throughout the church age who ascend to heaven at the rapture.
In anticipation of her forthcoming marriage, the woman (the church) meticulously prepares.
This preparation goes beyond worldly attire and includes dressing oneself in "fine linen bright and clean."
This linen represents "the righteous acts of the saints."
We can see here that the church has already gone through Christ's judgement seat.
This heavenly evaluation assesses Christians' works and devotion to Christ throughout their earthly stay.
The bride receives the fine linen as a result of this judgement, which is defined in Revelation 19:8 as "the righteous acts of the saints."
This is how "his bride has made herself ready."
The discourse implies that the marriage of the Lamb occurs right before Christ's magnificent second coming.
Revelation 19:14 emphasises this divine union by referring to the heavenly army, clad in fine linen and riding on white horses after Christ's marriage.
This image represents the beginning of the bride's position as co-reigning with Christ during the millennial kingdom.
The time emphasises the significant link between the marriage rite and Christ's approaching second coming.
Let us now distinguish the wedding from the Marriage Supper that follows it.
The contrast between the marriage of the Lamb and the ensuing marriage feast is critical to comprehending this heavenly drama.
Those who are invited to the Lamb's marriage supper are blessed in Revelation 19:9.
It says, Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb
This event is distinct from the marriage itself and is said to take place during the early stages of Christ's millennial rule on Earth.
Who precisely are the Wedding Supper Invited Guests?
It is critical to distinguish the guests at the marriage feast or supper from the bride, who represents the church age believers.
These are Old Testament saints and the Tribulation saints resurrected and alive after the Second Coming.
Old Testament saints are good people who lived before Christ yet believed in and trusted God.
They include Abraham, Moses, David, Elijah, and many more Old Testament personalities who displayed faith and obedience to God.
These people are known as saints because of their faith and connection with God.
Old Testament saints are said to be among the guests at the Lamb's marriage supper,
indicating their involvement in the magnificent celebration of Christ's final victory.
Also invited are the tribulation saints, the Tribulation saints are Christians who come to trust in Christ during the Great Tribulation,
This is a time of tremendous suffering and persecution as stated in the book of Revelation.
These people confront great hardships and are often martyred for their steadfast faith in Christ.
Despite the difficulties they face in the tribulation, they stay devoted and are rewarded for their perseverance.
Tribulation saints are also regarded guests at the Lamb's marriage supper, emphasising their participation in this wonderful feast.
