His Wife Hath Made Herself Ready [podcast]

What’s going to happen in a marriage where one or both partners refuse to confess, own up to their mistakes, their violations of the other person and the integrity of that marriage? Such a marriage may regrettably, end. Pride. – “Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.” (Proverbs 16:18) Will not the same end come to the relationship where a man has been saved by Christ and then becomes hardened in heart later, and refuses to acknowledge, confess, and forsake his sin? Yes. (Hebrews 3:6, 12-15; 10:26-39, etc.)

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13

“His wife hath made herself ready”

“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.” Revelation 19:7-8 

How do we know who the truly bride of Christ is? – Simple: It’s those who are making themselves ready for His soon return, to meet Him with white garment which represents the righteousness of His true saints.

“Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” Ephesians 5:24-27

Think about the big day, the wedding of, between a bridegroom and his bride. Think about what that white wedding dress she is wearing is supposed to represent – purity.

“And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure.” 1 John 3:3

The person who repents and is saved, and continues rooted in Christ, continuing/abiding in Him, will confess any sin committed and be perpetually transformed by Him (Proverbs 28:13; 2 Corinthians 7:1; 1 John 1:7, 9; 3:4-10).

Antoinette Yeboah writes:

“The corrupted heart, where one has fashioned a false god in their own evil image is the false god that tells you that you’re still saved even though you’re wallowing in sin. ‘Don’t worry you can repent later,’ so it says.

Fantasy.

Lies.

These are lies your sin sick soul wants to hear and makes everything okay. Lies that lead straight to Hell.

I was one of the ten virgins, one of the five foolish virgins, whose lamp was without oil. I was not ready for the Bridegroom. But nobody told me. Nobody warned me, even though I was in church every time the doors opened. For years. I was unknowingly on my to Hell until God showed me by revelation, my woeful, fallen position. Suddenly all the lies were revealed. I was astonished. I looked back and saw my sin. I repented immediately. But God kept showing me areas I fell short.”

The Bridegroom is Calling His Bride

The wise virgins of Christ are preparing to meet their Great Bridegroom! All others will have the door shut in their face. Read Matthew 25:1-13. Just as a good, sane man (bridegroom) isn’t going to attempt to drag some unwilling bride into a “marriage” against her will, so the Son of God, the Bridegroom, isn’t going to bring an unwilling bride, person into the bridal chamber of the New Jerusalem. The testimony of Holy Scripture reveals that one must choose to engage in a real, an honest relationship with Christ to know and be with Him eternally. Jesus used the […]

Bride of Heaven vs Harlot from Hell [podcast]

How Do We Know, Right Now, Who will be Seated at the at the Table, at the Great Supper of the Lamb? (Matthew 22; Revelation 19) The remnant, those who will be present at the Great Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, are ALREADY feasting at the banqueting table of His Word. All others whom Jesus has saved in the past, are not fueled or flourishing but are rather famishing, fainting, and falling away. The “little flock” of Christ desires to be with Him both now and forever, not just forever (Luke 12:32). They’ve been born again and present “abide” […]

Blessed is He that Watcheth [podcast]

  To “watch and pray” is essential to overcoming sin, satan, and being with Christ. No one can do it for you. You must choose. You are a full grown man, woman. Hell is full of people who will never escape, who are there due to neglecting this so great salvation (Hebrews 2:3). No believer can overcome temptation without the cross and prayer. Memorize the words of Jesus in Matthew 26:41 now. “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41 Those who choose to refuse to “watch […]
