Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

The Shared Meal




(New Testament)

Revelation 19

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb

6 Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,

“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
    the Almighty reigns.
7 Let us rejoice and exult
    and give him the glory,
for the marriage of the Lamb has come,
    and his Bride has made herself ready;
8 it was granted her to clothe herself
    with fine linen, bright and pure”—
for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.

9 And the angel said[a] to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.” And he said to me, “These are the true words of God.”

This is the last episode in our series of "The Shared Meal". It is also just a few short chapters from the very end of the Christian Bible, and dovetails beautifully with the opening chapters in Genesis. I hope you enjoyed this study as much as I have!

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

I just could NOT understand my Dad! The little Black and White TV told us every day, more than once, that we should have a fallout shelter, and we didn't have one! The only alternative was to cower in the corner of the basement where there were no windows or fuel tanks. Alas, the only corner without windows WAS the one with the fuel tank. I could only hope that when the APOCALYPSE came, that I would be in school at the time it happened, so I could "Duck and Cover" curl up against the wall in the school basement, put my head between my knees, and kiss my you-know-what "GOODBYE". Things got even scarier in October 1962. The Boston Globe actually had a MAP on the front page, showing the hypothetical range of Nuclear Missiles in Cuba, and here it was, The Apocalypse on my front doorstep.

Khrushchev banging his shoe at the UN, "We Will Bury You", Castro aiming missiles at us, and Dad's WW2 photos of Nagasaki didn't make it any easier.

One day, Dad realized how much distress I was experiencing due to The Apocalypse. "Get in the Car" he said. First, he took me to the piers in South Boston. He showed me the magnificent Navy Ships, not yet in mothballs, that represented the Naval Defense of our city. Then, on the way home, he took the route that led through the Blue Hills, near Mattapan where we lived. Suddenly, he turned off the main road and went up a long, curving, rural road through the woods. Then the woods opened up to reveal a strange looking military base. A guard stopped Dad's car and said, "Sorry, Sir. You can't go any further. This is a RESTRICTED AREA."

"I know," said Dad. "But my daughter is nervous about a Nuclear Attack. Could you please explain to her what you do here?"

The soldier turned to me."This is a NIKE Base, Miss. Our job is to protect the City of Boston from Nuclear Attack".

That's all I needed to hear. A sweet calm came over me, I looked the soldier in the eye and said, "Thank You."

The NIKE Base no longer exists in the Blue Hills and the buildings now house a Boy Scout Camp. The word "Apocalypse" which means "Unveiling" or "Revelation" in Greek has come to mean something totally different to me now. However, like the kind soldier at the NIKE base, God has given us reassurance that we are not to be afraid of the Apocalypse. For those who believe, it will be a Wedding Feast that is revealed.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Agreeing in prayer.

Just finishing the Book of Revelation with my Sunday School class. I’ve been taken to the woodshed for not “delving” into the Scriptures enough in the past. I have taught youth all my life and we started this class two years ago. I have benefitted and the class members have told me in our “tour through the Bible” that they are so glad that we flew over to the Book of Revelation from our study in Daniel. It clearly set the timeline.

My Pleasure! :-)

[Silentgypsy]

Amen and thank you. And I’m sure everyone else here enjoyed the series as much as I did! This is a lot of work for you. It starts my day off beautifully. P.S. I used to have technicolor nightmares about a gigantic, neon-pink, Hindenberg-shaped nuclear bomb being dropped on the elevated train tracks by our kitchen window.

I always use the term “taken to the woodshed” when God deals with me. Sorry it was confusing. After more than 30 years teaching youth of all ages, this Sunday School class has been a challenge and a blessing . . . . I will be forever grateful!!!

Ah! Thanks for the clarification! (((I thought maybe you had a run-in with some Modern-Day Pharisees!)))
