Male Child Bearers

This newsletter is centered around Revelation 19:7:

    "Let us
    • REJOICE,
    • BE HAPPY, and
    • give HIM GLORY
The "us" is the happy couple celebrating their marriage (see previous verse). The groom always has given GLORY to Him (God, the Father - John 5:17-47). So this request is most likely a reminder for the BRIDE .
    because it's time for the MARRIAGE of the LAMB.
When we become a believer in Christ, the engagement period leading up to this marriage begins. This is a spiritual marriage and has nothing to do with the physical urges that drive so many of the earthly marriages (Matthew 22:23-30-33).

Note that "the LAMB" is previously used for Jesus Christ in the Revelation (Revelation 5:6 and Revelation 14:1).
    His BRIDE has made herself READY.
Who is the BRIDE?  From a Revelation viewpoint, she is
  1. Those who came out of Babylon (Revelation 18:4),
  2. Those who are not defiled by women (Revelation 14:4),
  3. Those who didn't take the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:16),
  4. The tribulation martyrs (Revelation 6:11),
  5. The overcomers (Revelation 3:21, Revelation 3:12, Revelation 3:5, Revelation 2:26, Revelation 2:17, Revelation 2:11, and Revelation 2:7),
  6. Those who occupy the new Jerusalem (Revelation 21:9-27), and
  7. Those who are wearing bright and clean linen clothes (next verse).
As one can see, there is no distinction as to race, religious affiliation, social status, or wealth. Thus for the BRIDE to make herself READY must be something other than that. It is left to the reader to determine how the BRIDE has gotten herself ready.

An interesting sidebar here: while the BRIDE is referred to in the feminine form here, it probably is to reinforce the concept of believer procreation. That is, it is the female side of human beings which bears the child. In the same manner, believers beget other believers when the Gospel is proclaimed with the help of the Holy Spirit (John 3:1-5-21). This partially explains why it seems more difficult for male believers to witness to others about Salvation. They aren't use to being child bearers. 

 


 



     7        Let us rejoice, be happy, and give him glory
                      because it's time for the marriage of the lamb.
                               His bride has made herself ready.

启 示 录 19:7 (Chinese Union Version (Traditional))

 7 我 們 要 歡 喜 快 樂 , 將 榮 耀 歸 給 他 。 因 為 , 羔 羊 婚 娶 的 時 候 到 了 ; 新 婦 也 自 己 預 備 好 了 ,

The Revelation of Jesus Christ written nearly 2,000 years ago contains many physical events during the 7 seals, 7 trumpets, and 7 bowls judgments. I am trained formally as a Physicist  and wanted to show that the Revelation events could, in fact, have a Physics basis. My conclusion is that not only do the physical events have a Physics basis but also the symbolic (spiritual) will occur simultaneously. This all proves that God is a very big, yea GREAT GOD!
