Work Shop The Bride of the Lamb

No aspect of the Kingdom of God Kingdom of God is more important than the marriage of the Lamb. The Word of God, the Messiah, the Anointed Lord, has never before had a complement, a helper suited to Him.

The story of Adam and Eve really is an allegory. It is telling us that God has determined His Son shall no longer be alone but will have someone with whom He can communicate and who will reveal His Glory in the creation of God.

"He called their name Adam." So it is true that marriage to the Lamb is such total union with the Lamb that their name is the Lamb, so to speak. They who live by the body and blood of the Lamb are totally, eternally one in Christ in God.

There are no "queens" of the Kingdom of God Kingdom of God. This is because a queen is not the same person of the king and can, in fact, be hostile toward him. She is a separate person with a will of her own.

The various Christian organizations often view themselves as "queens," but they are queens of Babylon , not of the Kingdom of God Kingdom of God. We are not separate from Christ, if we are the Wife of the Lamb. We forever are an integral part of the Lamb.

Primary Scriptures

That all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. (John 17:21)

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (Ephesians 5:25 )

After all, no one ever hated his own body, but he feeds and cares for it, just as Christ does the church— (Ephesians 5:29 )

Essential Points of Emphasis

We often refer to the "Bride of Christ." But the Scripture refers to the "Bride of the Lamb." This is because we eat the Lamb.

The important aspect of the exodus of the Jews from Egypt Egypt was not that of the escape of human beings from physical slavery. The Centerpiece of the exodus is the Passover Lamb. The Jews left the slavery of Egypt Egypt and put on the chains of slavery to demons. But whoever eats the Passover Lamb and lives by Him is forever free from slavery.

Correct doctrine will never raise anyone to meet Christ in the air. It is His body and blood in us that will raise us.
