REVELATION 19:8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness... Jeremiah 30:6, Ask and see. Can a man give birth to children? Then why do I see every strong man with his hands on his stomach? Each of them is acting like a woman having a baby. Every face is as pale as death. Revelation 19:2, For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. 3: And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. 4: And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. 5: And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. 6: And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thundering, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. 7: Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8: And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9: And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. Who is SHE Who is his wife of the Lamb? Is it those he calls out of Babylon? When he says Come out of HER my people and it was granted unto HER to be arrayed in fine linen. In new testament it says John 3:29, but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoyceth greatly because of the bridegroom�s voice: This my joy therefore is fulfilled. He who has the bride is the bridegroom and John the Baptist is a friend of bridegroom and it speaks of guests at a wedding so the guests cannot be the bride.. So when it refers to the bride of lamb it is referring to something other than the guests. A special invitee to him or his wife as in a real marriage like the marriage at Cana. He said he served the best wine for last, at the request of his mother and he says to his mother, woman what have I to do with you for my time has not come yet. Very odd thing to say to his mother? On cross he says to John behold thy mother. In Genesis it says, a man shall leave his father and mother and cleave to Wife. In New Testament it says concerning the church this is a Great Mystery concerning Christ and the church that he gave himself up for HER. In Revelation 18, Great Mystery refers to Babylon and come out of HER and it was granted to HER in chapter 19 to be arrayed in fine linen. Is HER referring to those who come out of HER mystery Babylon in prior chapter? Or is this a literal HER a literal feminine aspect of God? Let us create man in our image male and female. Like 2 creation stories. In the first story Adam and eve are created simultaneously. In second story Adam is put to sleep and a woman is created from his rib. Could this creation be referring to woman's creation After the fall? In Revelation it also says a great sign appears a woman clothed with the sun and she is ready to give birth but it can�t be referring to Mary, could it be referring to a second birth? First was physical birth of Christ in Mary or humanity. Second on is referring to a spiritual birth of Christ in her or human kind? The New Birth? But to me it seems to be some feminine aspect that has not been revealed yet. This wife or bride is different than the guests referred to. A called out of Babylon few or a literal feminine aspect of the divine? It takes both a male and female to give birth to children. Could there be something we have missed? Does a man give birth. Jeremiah 30, Ask and see. Can a man give birth to children? Then why do I see every strong man with his hands on his stomach? Each of them is acting like a woman having a baby. Every face is as pale as death. Jeremiah 30:7, How awful that day will be! No other day will be like it. It will be a time of trouble for the people of Jacob. But they will be saved out of it. This is referring to end times. Who is wife it cannot be the entire church of Babylon. It has to be the ones he calls out of mystery Babylon in prior chapter or a literal femine aspect.
