Believers in Christ I have some food for thought questions for us to consider or alternative I am seeking answers to questions that have come up?

1. If all the believers are suppose to be the Bride of Christ just who is the Wedding Guests.

2. Can the bride be a guest at her own wedding, How would that be possible?

3. What are the characteristics of a Royal priesthood and do you believe we have anything to learn from the Levitical priesthood of the Old Testament Scriptures to aid us in becoming the bride of Christ?

I would appreciate some feedback although I would ask if you answer to justify your answers 

Some people are saying there are no wedding guest so to clarify, I need help in knowing who is the wedding guest at the wedding feast Matthew 22:1-14 and if the body of Christ, are in other words all the believers are the wedding guest then who is it that is the bride getting married. Because I am guessing the guess are there to witness the marriage so surely the bride would not be the witness at her own marriage.

Maybe we should take a look to see where we fit in and guess what here is a good place to start with Rev. 19:6-10. Who is the bride and who are the guests? Some key words: bride, wedding, betroth(ed), husband, etc. One must also search the OT, as well as the new (remembering that we are grafted into the seed of Abraham and adopted into the tribe of Judea, the house of David). Who is the bride of Christ then becomes clear, but who are those who are invited to the wedding but are not the bride becomes the question of interest. This is not a simple 1-2-3- sort of answer. Are you a part of the bride? Or, are you counted as one of the guests? How do you know for sure - according to the word of God?

EVER LEARNING BUT NEVER COMING INTO A PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE!

Christians are a trip. I mean I know that a lot of the IGNORANCE is because of the BLINDNESS OF XTIANITY, but then a good chunk is because of FAILURE TO STUDY and WILLFUL IGNORANCE. Even as I write this I realize that THE REWARD FOR DILIGENCE is probably based on the discernment of the Father that THE DILIGENCE HE LOOKS FOR includes a willingness to follow where the Ruach takes us, and that we NOT TRANSGRESS His word because of TRADITIOn, HERESY AND DEMONICALLY INFLUENCED FEAR.

This TYPE of fear is designed to keep all from the truth of Yahushua ONLY as Messiah and all t he OTHER TRUTHS that come with the ultimate truth. Some and one of these other truths are as follows:

1. BELIEVERS IN JESUS ARE NOT THE EKKLESIA (CHURCH),

2. THEY ARE NOT THE BODY OF THE MESSIAH

3. AND THE CERTAINLY ARE NOT THE BRIDE!

If one ever allowed oneself to TRUST and be led by the SET APART SPIRIT, one of the nuggets of KNOWLEDGE that they will find is that CHRIST IS A PAGAN DIETY. Quite frankly, if jesus wasn't a pagan god and was in fact the same as the TRUE SON OF YAH, YAHUSHUA, then CHRIST WOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH JESUS or vice versa more accurately. CHRIST is the name or word used for ANY PAGAN DIETY.

Next even as a TRUE TRUTH BELIEVER AND BEING IN THE WAY, we must realiize that THE BODY IS THE EKKLEISA BUT THE EKKLESIA IS NOT THE BODY!

1 Corinthiansr 12:27 Now ye are the body of Messiah, and members in particular.
28 And Elohim hath set some in the ekklesia , first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

THE BODY IS SET IN THE EKKLESIA (CHURCH). And just as the Navy Seals are IN THE NAVY, the Navy are not THE NAVY SEALS. The NAVY SEALS ARE SET IN THE NAVY. Starting first with OFFICERS: apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

So then next comes the bride.

1 Corinthians 12:29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?
30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.

The MORE EXCELLENT WAY is THE BRIDE OF MESSIAH! Just as the body is set in the Ekklesia the bride is set in the body. NOT EVERYONE WHO SAYS MASTER, MASTER SHALL ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM EXCEPT THEM THAT DO THE WILL OF THE FATHER! We don't all go to heaven just because we are saved. Salvation is a row boat from the danger of the OCEAN of sin, but the goal is to GET TO THE LAND OF HEAVEN. Some will miss this narrow path and other on the path will not find the narrow gate. Certainly those who BEING LED BY DEMONIC FEAR which keeps them believing in a pagan god will remain on the WIDE ROAD TO DESTRUCTION.

As far as the WEDDING GUEST are concerned, look at the PARABLE OF THE 10 VIRGINS! TRADITION teaches that IT WAS THE LACK OF OIL, but that is not the real message. IT IS THE LACK OF VESSEL in which the oil was kept. NO VESSELS NO OIL! The vessels are those we lead to THE WORD through jesus and TO SALVATION THROUGH YAHUSHUA!

I will have to do a deeper studh on just who THE GUEST are but I feel confident that THEY ARE THE VESSELS!

SEE:

THE TEN VIRGINS!

My dear Jaja if I can get through all that you have written in your attempt to underestimate the things of Christ can I suggest my dear that you put aside for a moment and forget your hatred and bigotry you may actually be able to find out who is the bride and who is the guest but you will need to go beyond elementary of just the ten virgin, yes there is significance in the parable of the ten virgin as all believers would doubtless know but I deliberately did not give that as I know that those with a mind of Christ would be able to detect that something is not quite right when the body of people have been split as illustrated by the ten virgin but still my dear I suggest if you want to get to the bottom of this that you not only use the Scripture that I so eloquently gave but that you also seek the answers from the clues with my statement i.e. you will not just find the answer from the ten virgin but will need to go to the Old testament too.  But the most important thing in find truth Jaja is hatred or bigotry has a way of keeping our minds close and you appear to be filled with hatred an loathe for the Saviour and those that believe in Him it is as well for you to loose those thoughts and keep a open mind after all even if you claim Jesus is not real and that you believe in God and Yashua do you really believe that Yashua would be happy for you to be spieling out the things you are doing, I mean did he give you the responsibility of being Judge, did he really esteem you to such a position where you get to condemn everyone would He not be a Saviour who believe in choice and believe in the fruits of the Spirit.  I don't know maybe in your new found knowledge you have come across addition fruit of the spirit to include condemnation, judging and hatred but my dear if you have not come across such addition to the fruits of the Spirit can I suggest you leave the judging to God who will judge between me and thee and could you also stop with the condemnation because does that privilege not belong to the Holy Spirit.   Anyway, Brother all this is pointed out in love so all may come into the truth including you.
