Behold the Lamb (The Bridegroom & Bride)

Behold the Lamb (The Bridegroom & Bride)

Pat Holliday
4.5/5 ( ratings)
Get Ready for the Return of the Lord
JESUS CHRIST IS BETROTHED TO HIS CHURCH
The Apostle Paul gives us a wonderful metaphor of Jesus Christ as being betrothed to His Church as her Bridegroom:
“Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish” .
Yes, there is a great falling away in our time but Jesus told us this was going to happen just before He returns:
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God” .
He is not surprised at the spiritual soul state of many professing Christians who do not know His Word nor do they live His Word. They have a form of godliness but deny the power of it.
“They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate” .
Millions are now following false ministers; Jesus warned us that perilous times would come.
I believe the Word of God, which states that Jesus is coming back for a Church without spoke or winkle. Therefore: NOT ALL WILL PERISH!
He warned us not to run after false Christ’s:
“And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them” .
He pleads with the end time church to repent:
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” .
