A wedding is a happy event for everyone. The Book of Revelation shows us that Jesus, the Lamb, will have His heavenly wedding at His second coming. Jesus' Bride didn't appear at His first coming. She is to appear with Him at the end of 6,000 years of God's redemption work when Jesus appears a second time in the last days.
First, let's find out when the heavenly wedding banquet will take place.
Rev 19:7-8 For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear. (Fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the saints.)
Here the Lamb stands for the Second Coming Jesus who will appear in the last days. The righteous acts of His saints represent fine linen that His Bride will wear. Jesus will have His wedding at His second coming. Who is His Bride then? Let's study more about Her through the Bible.
Rev 21:9-10 "Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb." … and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.
The Bride is heavenly Jerusalem. She will come down out of heaven to the earth. What is our relationship to Her?
Gal 4:24-26 The Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.
The Second Coming Jesus is to appear along with His Bride, our Mother, in the last days for the heavenly wedding banquet. The Apostle John foresaw our Father and Mother giving the water of life in the last days.
Rev 22:17 The Spirit [the Father] and the bride [the Mother] say, "Come!" … let him take the free gift of water of life.
The Lamb and His Bride (Rev 19:7)
The Lamb and the Bride who is the Wife of the Lamb (Rev 21:9)
The Spirit and the Bride (Rev 22:17)
The Lamb is the Spirit, our Father. And His Bride is Jerusalem our Mother.
Who is to establish [show us] Jerusalem our Mother who will give us the water of life in the last days?
Isa 62:7 He [God] establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.
Isaiah foretold that God would establish Jerusalem, our Mother, in the last days.
Ge 2:23 The man [Adam, the pattern of the one to come] said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh."
Ge 3:20 Adam named his wife Eve.
Adam represents the Second Coming Jesus. Just as Adam named his wife Eve, so the Second Coming Jesus will name His Bride, Jerusalem our Mother. He will reveal Her existence to us in the last days.
Our Mother will be established and revealed to us only by our Father. She is Jerusalem our Mother who gives us eternal life in the last days. Please believe in your heavenly Mother Jerusalem. God bless you.
Amen!
