The Royal Family - A Radiant Bride (notes)

The Royal Family - A Radiant Bride

The Bridegroom

• Is coming for a radiant bride. The coming of the Lord has been one of the most misrepresented teachings in church history. The bride has not behaved like a bride.
• Is coming for a chaste virgin, pure and without spot.

Ephesians 5:25-27

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her 26 to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27 and to present her to Himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.

As The Royal Family

• The bride of Christ is one of the most important aspects we must look at.
• Jesus is going to present His glorious bride at the marriage supper of the Lamb without spot.

What Glory Means

2 Corinthians 3:18

And all of us, as with unveiled face, because we continue to behold in the Word of God as in a mirror the glory of the Lord are constantly being transformed into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another.

The Glory of The Lord

• Is reflected in us by the Word of God. As we behold the splendor of the Glory of God we are transformed into His very Own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another.
• Transforms His bride into the likeness of the Groom with splendor.

Jesus Is Coming for a bride who is waiting in love for His return. This means that there will be a great awakening, a great outpouring of the Spirit that will transform the church into a glorious bride without wrinkle.

This Is What The Bride Is Preparing For:

• The wedding is the rapture. Then the marriage supper of the Lamb takes place while the world is going through the outpouring of the wrath of God.
• Before this there will be a great revival where the glory of the Lord will be seen on the people of God.
