Thank you very much for this message! I would like to know more detailled what the wedding garments are; how was this person able to enter? - The five foolish virgins had no chance to enter, how did this person enter?
“Then I heard something like the shout of a vast multitude, and like the boom of many pounding waves, and like the roar of mighty peals of thunder, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, [the Omnipotent, the Ruler of all] reigns. Let us rejoice and shout for joy! Let us give Him glory and honor, for the marriage of the Lamb has come [at last] and His bride (the redeemed) has prepared herself.” She has been permitted to dress in fine linen, dazzling white and clean-for the fine linen signifies the righteous acts of the saints [the ethical conduct, personal integrity, moral courage, and godly character of believers]. Then the angel said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.’ ” And he said to me [further], “These are the true and exact words of God.” Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he [stopped me and] said to me, “You must not do that; I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers and sisters who have and hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God [alone]. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy [His life and teaching are the heart of prophecy].”” Revelation 19:6-10 AMP
If the conclusion is that, "Many are called, but few are chosen", then the story seems to contradict the phrase. Few were called at first, but they refused. Then many were called. Among the many, one was chosen because he was wearing the wrong garments. This one was tied up and thrown out. The one with the wrong garments got in, but was subsequently thrown out, while those who refused weren't just thrown out, they had troops come upon them to destroy them. The one thrown out didn't get destroyed, he just was tied up and had whaling and gnashing going on. It seems that it would be better to NOT be chosen, by this parable. Furthermore, this parable says that the Kingdom was like the king. None of the called were the bride. In fact, the bride is a completely irrelevant point of this entire wedding. I'm more lost than when I started listening.
Hi D, this is a point of controversy in our home at the moment too. I'm hoping that the ensuing teaching will clarify these misconceptions. The only thing I believe to be true is that YHVH is good ALL of the time and that there is no injustice in Him. Humbly I pray for wisdom, understanding and discernment to work out my own salvation with fear and trembling.... That statement alone is enough for me to grasp the danger of being lukewarm, thinking I'm gonna be OK, taking His mercy lightly. Those who outright refuse His grace will not be as gutted on that day, because they made known the fact that they weren't interested... But those who stand before Him thinking that they have the right to be there and are then turfed out, they are the one's who will be completely gobsmacked. I hope you have found the answers to your questions, as I hope to find mine shortly Yahweh bless you as you seek His beautiful countenance to shine upon you🙌📜🔥🙌
IMO, the kingdom of God is best illustrated in the tabernacle of Moses. There are 3 courts and the important seat at the center, which is the throne of Messiah. (He is crowned king of king and Lord of Lords when he is resurrected and ascends according to "the Proton Psalm." In modern times, college professors have decided that the word "proton" is a mistake. There are lots of things they don't understand. We are all called and drawn by cords of love. The wicked think these cords are "bonds" to be "cut asunder." But we are the elect (electon/ελεκτον) drawn through 3 courts toward the proton. When we are first called, we receive the spirit of Jesus, who saves us and changes our heart. It wasn't until I finally confessed that to someone, that I actually felt and experienced the change. This puts you in the outer court where, symbolically, you are dressed as a servant. Matthew is mostly about the the kingdom of heavens (with an "s.") When you receive the spirit of father, you are accepting his will as your own will. This sounds hard to do. There are things you don't think you can live without. But it isn't as hard as you think. You can receive righteousness the same way you received salvation. This puts you in the middle court with longer robes. Jesus attained this for us. There is a passage somewhere that says, if you receive the spirit of Jesus...and if you receive the spirit of him (the father) who raised up Jesus from the dead...and if you receive the Holy Spirit... There are not 3 people in you. This is you putting on more of what Jesus is offering us. This is how we are enabled to love with first heart, then soul which is doing the will of the father, and then the Holy Spirit which quickens our mind so that that Word becomes with us continually. When the 3 become one, Christ is fully formed in us. After we have acquired the longest, most eloquent garments, he tells us to put on the towel of a servant and go back to the outer court to become a servant of all. The pathway through the tabernacle starts with a very wide entrance. The doorways get smaller with each court. I think this shows fewer coming through. Holy place, holy places, holy of holies, and most holy place Heaven, heavens, heaven of heavens,most high heaven Faith for salvation, faith. For righteousness, then holiness,then the good part There are other analogies with trees and birds and rivers, etc. So considered yourself called to righteous. Believe, and tell someone, "I am the righteousness of God, IN CHRIST JESUS." [I hope some part of this makes sense. If not, I will delete.]
LOVE IT‼️
