" HOW CAN THE ADOPTED SONS AND DAUGHTERS BE THE BRIDE?"

Peace,

   While in prayer last night I heard the still small voice speak these words. " HOW CAN THE ADOPTED SONS AND DAUGHTERS BE THE BRIDE?"

I will now go into the study and what I was led to seek in the living word and what I received. 

Let's look at some scripture. We will start in Matthew 9:15 15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

Matthew 22:10 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.

Who are the guests? When one of the guests was seen without a white robe he was led into outer darkness. The adopted sons and daughters(us)we are the guests.

Galatians 3:26 2For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

In one of my last studies I was speaking of the bride of Christ being the new Jerusalem. I have been led to do more of an in depth study. Let's look in Revelation.

 Although the description in Revelation 21:2 of the new Jerusalem as the “bride” of Christ 
could be interpreted as a metaphor, the statement in Revelation 21:9,10 specifically identifies this “bride”, the new Jerusalem, as the bride and the wife of the Lamb (Jesus Christ). 

The literal “bride” in these verses (Revelation 21:9) has already been identified as the new 
Jerusalem, and Revelation 21:10-27 goes on to describe the “bride” in detail right down to the names of the tribes of Israel written on the twelve gates. 


The church will inhabit the new Jerusalem along with old testament saints, tribulation 
saints, and millennium saints. The church will be within the "bride" which is new Jerusalem but the church is NOT the bride of the Lamb, Jesus Christ.

In Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

So we see the Spirit and the bride say come, The Spirit is saying come. The bride being the Holy City is telling us to come. Come dwell within. Amen?!?

Who are they inviting to "come?" Those whose names that are written in the Lamb's book of Life.

Revelation 19: 7:9 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

We will be so blessed to be called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. Granted to the wife that she be arrayed in fine linen which is the righteousness of saints. Amen!?

In HIM with love,
Cassie
