We should not be surprised that the marriage supper of the lamb is the explosion of teaching that took place at the cross. But too many desire a comic book version where, though God says gluttony is a sin <ref>[[Pr 23:21]] For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe [a man] with rags.</ref> <ref>[[Pr 28:7]] ¶ Whoso keepeth the law [is] a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous [glutonous] [men] shameth his father.</ref> <ref>[[Pr 23:2]] And put a knife to thy throat, if thou [be] a man given to appetite.</ref>, he would tempt us tot he to the Kingdom of heaven with an elaborate literal meal. The marriage happened at the cross. Those who believe it happens in the resurrection do not know the scripture nor the power of God. <ref>[[Mr 12:24]] And Jesus answering said unto them, Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God?</ref> You are NOW the bride, and you are NOW invited to the marriage supper of the lamb. You are invited to participate in the explosion of doctrine that resulted from the cross.  But just as Jesus prophesied; some have bought new property <ref>[[Lu 14:18]] And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.</ref>, other have new animals (or cars) <ref>[[Lu 14:19]] And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.</ref>, others are newly married <ref>[[Lu 14:20]] And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.</ref>; and ya know... it really doesn't matter... we all have excuses not to come to the feast of new teaching made available by the cross. =References=<references/>
