MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB” ⁹

It is customary to serve the marriage supper after the marriage ceremony has been performed. This marriage supper must be after Christ’s coming, because Luke’s testimony in regard to Christ’s coming reads: “Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning; and ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.” ¹⁰ LDT 155.1

This call to the marriage supper must be the same as the first message of Revelation 14, and the time proclamation of the tenth chapter already noticed. As recorded in Luke, this first call goes to those persons who had “been bidden.” It must, therefore, have gone direct to the churches, and there is just where the first call of the second advent message went. Protestant churches were open in all directions for the preaching of the message. LDT 155.2
