The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

Colossians 2:8-10 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ. For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority.

It has been taught by: Rabbi Eliezer Rosh haShanah 10b-11a

“in the month of Tishri the world was created,…and in Tishri they will be redeemed in time to come.”


The book by Joseph Good: “Rosh HaShanah and the Messianic Kingdom to Come”


Says the following:


Rosh HaShanah emcompasses many themes and teaches many doctrines.

Repentance, (Teshuvah)
The time of Jacob’s Trouble
The Resurrection of the dead
The Natzal (plucking away) aka: The Rapture or Catching Away
The Coronation of the Messiah
The Beginning of the Messianic Kingdom
The Judgment
The Wedding of the Messiah, See Revelation 19:9
(The Marriage Supper of the Lamb)


And Re: The Day of the Lord, Time of Trouble, Day of Wrath

Joseph Good said, "The Day (or Time) of Trouble referred to here is scattered throughtout the Scriptures under various names: Birthpangs, Wrath of G-d, Tribulation, and so forth. It describes a seven year time period of judgement and cleansing on the earth "


Author of The Morning Comes and Also the Night , Pastor Byron MacDonald said of Rosh HaShanah,

“I do think the Day of the Lord is a 1007 year period of time that begins with the Great Tribulation - the wrath of God on the nations.”

And,

“I think the key date is Rosh Hashanna. … I definitely think Jesus will come back for the church on Rosh Hashana, I just don't know which one. My preference is this year. Even so Lord Jesus come!”

Colossians 2:16-17 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. These are (present tense) a shadow of the things that were to come (future tense); the reality, however, is found in Christ.

Matthew 5:18 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.

Revelation 19:9 Then the angel said to me, "Write: 'Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!' " And he added, "These are the true words of God."

I hope and pray I am included in The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
