The marriage of the lamb is the rapture. So is the marriage supper?

Question

going to be in heaven during the Trib. period or on earth during the Millennium??

Answer 1

Essentially, you're asking the age-old question of pre-millennial/post-millennial resurrection (What people call the Rapture, is the resurrection of the saints).

Firstly, No, the Rapture is NOT the marriage of the Lamb. The Rapture is the resurrection of the saints; the marriage and the supper comes later, after Christ has taken the reign of the earth, which doesn't happen until the end of the Day of the Lord. The Day of the Lord ends with the last seven plagues.

I have never understood how this could be confused, because the Bible is very clear on this point. Jesus declared pointedly:
"Immediately AFTER THE TRIBULATION of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light..." (Matthew 24:29)
And in Joel we find, again clearly:
"The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, BEFORE THE coming of the great and awesome DAY OF THE LORD." (Joel 2:31)
And the resurrection happens AT the LAST TRUMPET; the same time Christ returns to the earth.

“For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.” (I Thessalonians 4:16)

“Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep [die in the flesh], but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, AT THE LAST TRUMPET. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” (I Corinthians 15:51-52)

Much of the book of Revelation is about the Day of the Lord. The warning for its coming is in Rev. 6:1-17. The Day of the Lord begins with the first of seven trumpet blasts, in Rev 8:7. And the seventh starts at 11:15. The resurrection of the saints is pictured (symbolically) in 12:1-19 (as the temple -- 1Co 3:16).

And since the saints and Christ are to "live and reign" (Rev 20:4) on the earth (Rev 5:10), the marriage supper will also be on the earth. And since the Tribulation is long past by the time of the resurrection, it will be in the millennium.

Answer 2

It is an open question except to those who claim they know for sure. The ultimate question is does our Lord and Saviour want his bride to be in that worldly mass murder program or not. It you study the marriage procession of ancient weddings I don't think so. For more info go to
