The Book of Revelation
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb – 19:1-10
The rejoicing is also centered on an event that is about to happen- the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Marriage is often used to describe the relationship of God to His saints (followers). In the Old Testament Israel is pictured, as in Hosea, as the unfaithful wife of Yahweh who is destined to be restored in the future kingdom. In the New Testament, marriage is also used to describe the relationship between Christ and the church, but the illustration contrasts with the Old Testament, for the church is regarded as a virgin bride waiting for the coming of her heavenly bridegroom.
Today’s Sermon
Moses – Man of Freedom
Building Strength Against Evil Exodus 5-6
The heat builds on the path to freedom for Moses and the children of Israel. On the heels of the initial positive response of the people to Moses and Aaron (4:29-31: 29 And Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel: And Aaron spake all the words which the LORD had spoken unto Moses, and did the signs in the sight of the people. And the people believed: and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel, and that he had looked upon their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshipped) the first salvo in the battle to set the people free is fired by Pharaoh.

Scripture Reading
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He shall dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be their God, and He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death, or mourning, or crying, or pain. Rev. 21:1, 3-4
