Rejoice in the Lamb

Isaiah 53 that talks about Jesus’ sacrifice for us. In verses 1-3, it talks about how Jesus was treated like an ordinary man. He had no outward beauty or majesty, and he was “despised and rejected.” Then, in verse 7, it says that he was “led like a lamb to the slaughter.” In the Old Testament, people often gave

of Christ, it is also referring to the church. In this case the church is the bride and Jesus is the groom and this is the strongest relationship that can never be broken (Davis). Revelation 19:7 says, “Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready” (NKJV). This specific passage is teaching about when Jesus Christ returns to rapture His church and take all those who are saved with Him to Heaven

From our Creator’s perspective, human imagination is a powerful force for good or evil purposes. In His estimation, nothing that a united and ungodly people could imagine would be impossible to them. This is why He created language barriers among the people at Babel. Before, everyone spoke one language. However, they became too independently intelligent for their own good and turned against their Creator; their minds were clouded with pride at the thought of “reaching the heavens” with a mighty

"He called out with a mighty voice, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! It has become a dwelling place of demons" (Revelation 18:2 NRSV) A few weeks ago I made mention in a sermon about some of the Art exhibits I saw at the Toledo Art Museum. One of those being an exhibit of the "Art of Star Wars" which featured actual models and costumes from the movies. If you grew up when I did this was a "no brainer, we have to go" exhibit. What I didn't say was how disappointed I was in the exhibit

garments in Revelation 19. "And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings saying: Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns! Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready. And to her it was granted to be

not ready at Jesus’s firstcoming, but at his second coming. That’s why Revelations 19:7 NIV says “Let us rejoice and be glad and give him Glory! For the wedding of the Lamb(Christ) has come, and his bride has made herself ready!” The bride is ready in the Last Days. Rev 21:9-10 say that this bride is the New Jerusalem coming down out of Heaven. Just as Jesus is not a physical lamb, this Jerusalem is not

world. The role that Jesus had on earth was to be a sacrifice for the sins for the world, to be the pure lamb, for those who have faith in the teachings and saying of Jesus Christ, the redeemer for the sins of the world that all have done. One of the most overlooked verses in Romans is chapter 5 verse 3; this is one of the only places in any holy scripture where one would find us being told to rejoice in our sufferings because it builds perseverance. Romans 5:18 states that just as sin enter the world

trial before the Cross show that they did it believing that they were serving God. Finally, it was predicted that he would be silent before his accusers in Isaiah 53:7, “He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so he did not open his mouth” (The Holy Bible). This prophecy was fulfilled in Matthew 27:14, “But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge—to the great amazement of the governor”

Introduction God gave very specific instructions to Moses regarding the establishment of the earthly sanctuary. These instructions were given in order to maintain the covenant relationship with God. In Exodus 19:5-6 it is written, “’Now then, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep my covenant, then you shall be My own possession among all the peoples, for all the earth is Mine; and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation’. Evidently, God desired for the people of Israel to be

Achilles and Hector as Contrasting Heroes in The Iliad Achilles and Hector are alike in a few ways, but different in many others. For example, each is the greatest warrior of his army Achilles, the Greek champion, and Hector, the Trojan champion. Both are very proud and won't back down from a fight. Both show very human flaws, Achilles with his wrath and vengeance, and hector when he recklessly persuades Trojan warriors to leave the safety of Troy's walls shortly before Achilles
