7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

MEMORY VERSE: “And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.” – Revelation 19:9 (KJV)

LESSON INTRODUCTION: Marriage, in this context, symbolises the union between Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:24-27, 32). It is, however, important to note that the Marriage Supper of the Lamb is the next event after the first phase of the second coming of Christ (the rapture).

LESSON OUTLINES:

1. 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE MARRIAGE
   2. IMPORTANCE AND QUALIFICATION

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE MARRIAGE

A. The concept of the marriage supper is better understood in light of the wedding customs in the time of Christ. These wedding customs had three major parts:

1. The parents of the bride and the bridegroom sign a marriage contract with the payment of a dowry to the bride or her parents. This began what was called the betrothal period-what we would today call the engagement (Matthew 1:18; Luke 2:5).
2. The bridegroom comes in the night to take his bride (Matthew 25:1-13).
3. The marriage supper itself, which might go on for days, is illustrated by the wedding at Cana in John 2:1-2.

B. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb is the consummation of the union between Christ (The Bridegroom) and the Church (the Bride-without spot or wrinkle) – Ephesians 5:27, 32; Revelation 19:1-9; Matthew 22:1-14.

C. The marriage will take place before the second phase of the second coming of Christ to the earth between Jesus and the redeemed or saints of all ages, who will have part in the first resurrection.

D. It is believed that the marriage supper will take place in Heaven (Revelation 19:9).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1: The class should discuss whether or not all professing believers in Christ will be at the marriage supper of the Lamb

2. IMPORTANCE AND QUALIFICATION

IMPORTANCE

• • The marriage supper of the Lamb is meant to assemble the saints of all ages and present them to God, the Father (Matthew 25:32-34), who will wipe away tears from their faces (Revelation 7:17).
  • It is also to take away the saints from the earth before the activities of the anti-Christ and the period of the tribulation (Isaiah 57:1).
  • It will also be the period to reward faithful and diligent saints.

QUALIFICATION:
Those who will qualify for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb are:

• The faithful saints of God.
• Those whose garments of righteousness have not been stained (Revelation 21:27; Hebrews 12:14).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Can a believer who missed the marriage supper of the lamb still make heaven? Will such a believer get any reward in heaven?

CONCLUSION: The Marriage Supper of the Lamb, like all biblical prophecies, will be fulfilled. You cannot afford to miss it. Pray to God to keep you standing in Him and count you worthy of this great and unique event.
