The Royal Family - The Royal Wedding (notes)

The Royal Family - The Royal Wedding

The Great Banquet

  • Is mentioned in Matthew 22 by Jesus.
  • The King is God, the son is Jesus.
  • His servants are the prophets of the Jews.
  • The invited guests are the nation of Israel.
  • Everyone in the streets are Gentiles.
  • The person without wedding garments is the person who was not covered by the blood of Jesus.

Jesus

  • Mentions wedding feasts because of the marriage supper of the Lamb.
  • This will take place while the tribulation is taking place on the earth.
  • It will be a seven year feast of celebration for the people of God with Jesus.

While the tribulation is taking place on earth the church will be in the presence of God.

The Judgment Seat of Christ

This is when Jesus rewards believers for how they lived their lives on earth and how we shined the light of the Good News to the world.

I Corinthians 3:8

Principles

  • Paul talks about being God’s building. We are cultural architects. The church is the institution that should design the culture not the world.
  • Some water, some plant but God gives the increase.
  • Paul mentions a great intellectual from the great city of Alexandria, Apollos, a great debater of the faith.

We Will Be Rewarded

  • According to our labor. How we work, our motives for doing God’s work and the love we demonstrated while on the planet.
  • Not so much according to our abilities but how we used our gifts.
  • By Jesus when we stand before Him at the judgment seat of Christ.
  • By the love we demonstrated to people and for God.

As you have discussed that would be great way to remember the British occasion. And this would definitely be called as a magical marriage and it is very interesting.
