Marriage Supper of the Lamb

[Salyan]

Rick Schworer's post made me think about this topic. Is the Marriage Supper really a supper - as in eat, chew, swallow, physical food? Or, as we are spiritually the Bride of Christ, is it a spiritual supper? Jesus calls Himself the Bread of Life... might it be a time of fellowship & rejoicing in His presence?

What do y'all think?

[Brother Rick]

Beats me, but it's going to be great either way. :)

Maybe both? There's going to be no food necessary in Heaven, but that doesn't mean there won't be any...

[Seth Doty]

Maybe both? There's going to be no food necessary in Heaven, but that doesn't mean there won't be any...

I would tend toward both. I am pretty sure there is literal food in heaven. After all what was manna but the bread of heaven? Also what did Christ say at the end of the last supper?

"Mark 14:25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God." That is most likely speaking of the marriage supper of the lamb.

But will there be bacon?

[Salyan]

If there isn't, I don't think you'll mind anyways. :frog:

[HappyChristian]

But will there be bacon?

Who knows, but with you there, there'll be plenty of ham... :th_laugh1:

[Covenanter]

But will there be bacon?

No. The situation will be like Eden - vegetarian.

[Brother Rick]

No. The situation will be like Eden - vegetarian.

Oh, I see.



Um, will the veggies taste like bacon? :clapping:

[Salyan]

Sure! Ever had veggie bacon bits?

[JerryNumbers]

For bacon to be eaten in heaven, would that not mean bloodshed? Will there be bloodshed in heaven?

[Nathaniel]

No. The situation will be like Eden - vegetarian.

I agree with Covenanter; its my guess there will be better tasting things than bacon prepared for us. However I suppose it could be possible to have some type of bacon flavored veggie.

Mr 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

[Brother Rick]

I don't see how anything could taste better than bacon, but then again, like you said, "...with God ALL THINGS are possible."

:lol:

Yuk

My wife is a veggie and cannot stand anything that pretends to be meat. She has never eaten meat and will not eat any of the psuedo vegetarian meals that have vegetables pretending to be meat. Qiuorn is off. Linda McCartney is a no no, so is textured soya.

Invicta, your wife doesn't like "vege-burgers"? How about vege-links? My cousins are Seventh-Day Adventists, and they love that pseudo meat stuff. Seems rather hypocritical to me for one to claim they are vegetarian, but want to pretend to ea meat! I got caught burying one once as a youngster; needless to say, they were quite upset.

(Nothing ever grew in that particular spot since then, except weeds!)
