REVELATION THE GREAT FEAST
"Let us be glad and rejoice, and give glory to him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready. And to her it was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints. And he said to me, "Write: Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb." And he said to me, "These are the true sayings of God." (Revelation 19:7-9)
The marriage of the Lamb signifies the union of the heavenly Bridegroom, the Lord Jesus, with the Bride, the glorified Church. She appears before the Bridegroom dressed in white, symbolizing her dignity and purity, for she has been washed in the Blood of the Lamb. If this were not the case, the Bridegroom would never come to meet her and marry her. Appearances may deceive men, but not God. The Church must be pure, holy and immaculate, and this is only possible if it lives its faith. The sacrifice of the Lord Jesus makes us righteous before God the Father. He Himself took it upon Himself to clothe us with royal garments of fine linen, bright and pure, for this great Day.
*This is the greatest and best celebration in which a human being can participate, a celebration so glorious that it will last for all eternity*
