Last Days

Preparing for the Marriage Dinner with the Lamb. Revelation 19:7-9


Listen Later

This is a hard word for Christians. In Revelation 19:7 the judgment seat of Christ has happened and then the marriage dinner of the Lamb. Are you prepared to sit at this table? If you’re a Christian you have the robe of Jesus Christ righteousness. This is the objective truth that his righteousness covers all your sins and you can stand before Him. This was given to you the moment of your salvation and cannot be taken away. Amen. Now, there is a second robe. IT IS NOT YOUR ROBE OF SALVATION! This is the wedding garment and the bride SHOULD (19:8) make herself ready by preparing her wedding garment while she is on earth. This garment is the righteousness’s of the Saints. Righteousness is plural because it indicates opportunity after opportunity after opportunity that we have to weave the righteousness of Jesus Christ subjectively into our daily living! There are helpful parables of the kingdom of heaven in Matthew 22, the wedding garment, and in Matthew 25 the Ten virgins. Believers have a hard time applying them to themselves because of the results of not having a wedding garment and of not having reserve oil for your lamps. Saints, you cannot live this life for yourself, fail to lovingly prepare your wedding garments and foolishly neglect to buy oil and expect post rapture enjoyment in these things. Initially we will experience regret and disappointment. Yet we still have 1000 years of time, think about that , for the Lord to operate His love into us and for us to dry our tears, and lovingly serve him on that millennial throne, until we all ultimately come down out of heaven in Revelation 21 as the Lambs wife. Oh saints you might not like this understanding. We fantastically and improperly think everything is going to be as we imagined heaven would be right after the rapture. No, You are cheating yourselves and need to adhere to the holy scripture and realize Christ wants something, He wants a loving wife, He’s going to get it, and He’s going to get it His way. You won’t have to look very far into your day, but right now start looking for sellers of oil. They are everywhere. Look at every opportunity as one in which you can subjectively embroider the life of Jesus into your living. They are wherever your flesh, your self tries to live. Be a ready bride. Many are called to this wedding feast but few are chosen to enjoy it. Other reading Matthew 22:11-14, 25:1-13
