2. The Wedding Feast

Preparations for the marriage supper of the Lamb have been made. The tables have been decorated and spread by angels, prepared for that great day. The tables are set with golden spoons, forks, knives and dishes. (This has been attested to by many believers who claimed to have seen it in prophetic visions).

*1, 2, 3. Sourced from Reverend B.R. Hicks book: Revelation Book 4; published by Christ Gospel Press A greater part of the celebration of the marriage supper of the Lamb will be the partaking of the covenant meal. When He dined with His disciples a night before He was betrayed to be crucified,

“… Jesus took bread, and blessed it and brake it, and gave it to the disciples and said, ‘…Take, …show more content…

And since Christ was actually the Divine Side of the Son of God, His body and Blood could reach out to the communion table and cover the bread and wine. Therefore, He was justified in saying, “This is my body…this is my blood”

____________________________________

Actually, by giving them the broken bread and communion cup to partake of, He was in essence, giving them a foretaste of the glorified resurrected body and victorious blood that would be enjoyed at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb after His resurrection.

This is why Jesus said, “I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day [at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb] when I drink it new with you in my Father’s Kingdom” (Matthew 26:29).

Jesus is the vine (John 15:1) and His blood is the Fruit of the Vine. The Lamb’s Blood will be new to them because it will tasted and enjoyed by glorified, resurrected bodies. The Bride of Christ in particular will be the one that will partake and enjoy of the choicest part of Christ’s Redemptive

  • Catholic Taking Communion Rhetorical Analysis

    I agree with what you said about how you believe that it has a symbolic meaning, only because I also think that exact thing. The contrast that you made between the sacrifice he made on the cross for us, which involved his body basically being hung on the cross with little support and his blood dripping down has a lot of meaning/symbolism especially when it comes to him saying to his disciples "...to eat his flesh and drink his blood..." I think that, that in a way with his crucifixion shows how much he wants us to remember and know that what he did that day, he did for us. I also think that to a lot of Catholic 's taking communion is a privilege, that they believe we should not take for granted and understand that it has been provided for us

    First, as the priest walked on to the altar there was a table with a cloth over it which the priest kisses. I was curious as to what the meaning of the table was and asked my friend Paul. His answer was that the meaning the table signified the body of Christ. On that same table the priest set a gold colored what seemed to me to be a wine glass and a circular disk on the table. The priest lifted the circular disk in to the air with both hands and said “this is my body which will be given up for you this is the challis of my blood”.

  • Symbolism In The Gospel Of John

    1377 Words  | 6 Pages

    (and)...once in the world, Jesus called upon things that could be heard, seen, touched, and tasted to bear witness to the unseen God who sent him, so that the commonplace - bread made from barley meal, streams of cool water, and a glimmer of light - became vehicles of revelation.1 Prominent among these are the seven ‘I am sayings’, where Jesus uses such things as bread, light, a door and the shepherd to symbolize him. Koester points out that the fundamental structure of these symbolisms are twofold: the primary level of meaning concerns Christ and the secondary concerns the disciple.2 He says that by concentrating the primary meaning of each image on Jesus and the secondary on his disciples, the Gospel continuously drives the reader to accept the fact about Jesus’ divinity and the meaning of his life (the reader) in relation to him.3 A clear example of this is the last but not least of the ‘I am’ sayings where Jesus represents himself as the ‘True Vine’ which we will here explore more in depth. It seems that this discourse took place after Jesus celebrated the Passover meal with his disciples. He had predicted his betrayal, told them that he had to go to the Father and that he would not leave them alone, that he would send them the Advocate, his Holy Spirit.

    And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them saying, 'This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me '" (Bible, by Luke 22:19). The third significance is the important principle given by Jesus Christ to live a Christian life. “One should never expect to be served by anyone but to serve others and I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on me, so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel" (Bible, by Luke 22:29-30).

    However, this water that quenched the thirsty people of Israel, points to greater things. It revealed the presence of the Lord who journeyed along with them. It shows that the Lord Himself, who gave them this water, traveled with them. Ratzinger says “the gift of water from the rock increasingly became a motif of messianic hope” for the people of Israel. It is true, just as Moses provides food and drink for the people of the Old Law while they were in the wilderness, Christ provides food and drink for the people of the New Law in and through His body and blood in the form of the Eucharistic
