The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will Take Place on Earth
Matthew 8:11-12
And I say to you That many shall come from the east and west and shall sit down with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens But the children Matthew 15:26 of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth
Comments: Matthew 8:11-12 The events described in these verses will happen after Jesus’ 2nd Coming. The sitting down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob will literally happen at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb (verse :11). In today’s vernacular it would be called the Wedding Reception of the Lamb. This will happen on earth after Jesus returns with his Bride and defeats his enemies at the Battle of Armageddon Revelation 19:7-21. The events of verse :12 describe the fate of those not invited to the wedding reception.

Note from the editor: I read my Bible every day, always picking up today where I left off yesterday. This is what I call my “on-track” Bible reading. I have been doing this for over 44 years. The posts in this column are usually notes from my Bible on whatever passage I happen to be reading on any particular day. If you are not presently doing the same, I invite you to join me, beginning with where I’m at. How much you read on a daily basis isn’t important. It only matters that you read, feeding your spirit with a prayerful daily dose of the Word of God.
