The Final Supper

 Greetings to  you all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,

     Revelation 10:9 says, “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.’

     When my Mother knew we were coming to visit, she would begin cooking my favorite dishes, all at one time.  When we arrived, there wold be a dish of macaroni and cheese in the overn, being kept warm along with roast beef with homemade noodles to pour on top of a mound of mashed potatoes.  The table was full from then on until we left.  We would soon be stuffed with food and she would then offer to make us sandwiches to take back on our trip home, which we turned down and accepted only a mug of coffee to begin the trip.

     Every believer that I have known have looked forward to the marriage supper of the Lamb as described in the Book of Revelation.  I wonder what will be served.  The Lord Jesus Christ ate some food after the resurrection to show that His body was capable of doing so.  He wasn’t a ghost  but alive and could eat  the food that was there.  I assume that  we will be able to eat  wha is present at the marriage supper.  There are some suppers that you don’t want to miss and the Marriage Supper of the Lamb is the greatest of all.  One thing for sure, there will be no unbelievers present at that supper.  There are going to be a lot of people present at the supper but I am sure there will be a seat for each one of us.  The sad thing is the other side of the coin so to speak, of all those who will be absent because they never truly believed in the Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, and so will not be present at the marriage supper of the Lamb.  I think of family members who have scoffed at the slightest mention of salvation, the Bible or getting saved.  They t hat  regard the Bible as a book of stories for children along with Aesops Fables or books  of mythology will be absent from the supper.  Those that found nothing good about going to church and who claimed they worship God on the golf course or the tennis court on Sundays, they will be absent.  Those that put work ahead of worship will be absent as well as those who pursue after money all their life.  In the end, they will miss the greatest supper of all.  Those children who g rew up wit hout God and without a parent telling them about God will be absent.  If you did not believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as did the Philippian jailor, you will be absent also even though you migh proclaim on earth, “Oh, mommy, I’ll see you in heaven.”  Those will be empty words for of the lost  who think everyone goes to heaven.  Praise God for His calling but the final call is coming soon.
