Wednesday, October 9

The marriage of the Lamb has arrived.—Rev. 19:7.

 

Although there will be a great shout of joy in heaven when Babylon the Great is destroyed, there is something else that will bring greater joy. (Rev. 19:1-3) It is, in fact, the climax of the book of Revelation—“the marriage of the Lamb.” All the 144,000 will be in heaven just before the war of Armageddon is fought. However, that will not be the time for the marriage of the Lamb. (Rev. 21:1, 2) The marriage of the Lamb takes place after the war of Armageddon has been fought and all of God’s enemies have been removed. (Ps. 45:3, 4, 13-17) What does the marriage of the Lamb really mean for those involved? Well, just as a marriage joins a man and a woman together, so this symbolic marriage unites the King, Jesus Christ, with his “bride,” the 144,000. That climactic event inaugurates the new government that will rule the earth for 1,000 years.—Rev. 20:6. w22.05 17 ¶11-13

The significance of this marriage highlights the joy and ultimate fulfillment of God’s purpose in bringing about lasting peace and justice.
