Joel Richardson,.let me say this brother. This one video on it's own, stands as a beacon of the truth. It puts into very clear perspective, so many doctrines where confusion reigns. An excellent presentation, all in its own right. Blessings
Yes!!
The star-trek-theology is confusing, because it doesn't line up with scripture in important points and then tries to fix anything they get into their thinking dictated by their own desires. The bride in revelation is another matter. It's the 'New Jerusalem'... not the body of Christ... The wedding is when the body of Christ enters the New Jerusalem... But that is last things... after the Millennium.
Thank you Joel. A terrific talk. We have to keep being reminded because we are earthen vessels. What a wonderful future, we will be living in the the Holy city Of Yerushalayim , we will be together with the prophets, apostles, and there at the head of the table will be the MAJESTY HIMSELF👑HASHEM.
HAL'LELUYAH AND MARANATHA 🙏🏻
Finally someone on UA-cam who is finally preaching truth
Being grafted in to the good fig tree. Maranatha YAH bless all his children - believers Amen HalleluYAH ❤️🙏🔥✝️🕊️😁
I love Your common sense teachings... Thanks
Thank you for the truth about this Pretrib rapture and who the Bride is!!
It is the Grand Design of God. His story to the world of a love and covenant which includes all of us (especially Israel).
I look forward to the end of the current chapter and the beginning of the endless new chapter of eternity with our Husbandman, Yeshua.
All of this just needs to remind us that it will be WORTH IT to endure to the end as Jesus commanded. Even though He slay us, yet still will we praise Him in His return and throughout His faithful covenant to the end.
I dont go to a physical church, i have jumped from online preacher to preacher because they all translated the bible in reference to todays customs, practices etc. Your interpretation of the Gospel has been 100% sound in logic, it is 100% so er minded, can you guys be the only o es preaching it as it is? If so i found a treasure. Thank you
Hebrews 10:25
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
V T, I feel the same way that the traditional churches I grew up in are deeply indoctrinated with false theology. We do sabbath services on Saturday (the sabbath) but because of the lack of sabbath keeping churches with sound doctrine we typically webcast services from 'YAHWEH RESTORATION MINISTRIES' (on UA-cam) and I have also found '119 MINISTRIES' (on UA-cam) to be really insightful. I love their Pauline Paradox series!
That being said, I do still attend Sunday services at the same church I've been going to for years for the simple fact of getting together with other believers as scripture states. Just because I know they don't have all their theology correct doesn't mean they aren't saved. They believe in the fundamentals of salvation and of we only try to surround ourselves with people that believe and think just like we do then how can we be like iron sharpening iron? Proverbs 27:17
I have been shown that it is far more important that we are consuming scripture ourselves and not a regurgitated form of scripture from other beings. Stay in the word and try to read it for yourself more than any other teachings you listen to. Daily searching the scriptures like the Bereans! Shalom shalom
Thank you Joel and FAI for another awesome teaching! Yahweh bless you for your work and dedication!
Listening to online preaching is good, but I would highly recommend finding a good Church community as well. Blessings.
Hi, VT. Beside FAI, I've found a few that I trust. You might try:
- Zion's Hope ( www.youtube.com/@zionshopeorg1989 )
- Mike Winger ( www.youtube.com/@MikeWinger )
- One For Israel Ministries ( www.youtube.com/@ONEFORISRAEL )
- Ask Dr Brown ( www.youtube.com/@AskDrBrownVideos )
Also, if the timing of the Rapture interests you, I've not found a better, more thorough study than Paul Dorgan's 8-part teaching ( ua-cam.com/video/tqdtreJjbic/v-deo.html ).
@@martystover5689 the first Christians worshipped/gathered on Sunday because that is the day the Lord rose from the dead. This is clear from early writings.
God is answering and reassuring me of the truth and meaning of what He is teaching me throughout the Bible. Praise God for His children who are blessed with wisdom and understanding of the Word. PEACE!
This message hits home on so many levels. Our marriages pictures the marriage covenant we enter into with the God of Israel n His Son, Jesus. Physically speaking, my ethnicity remains but spiritually speaking, I have joined myself to the covenant made with Israel through Yeshua's blood. I have smaller points where I differ but as a whole these messages resonate. Abba's ways are wonderful!
Where do you differ?
Yes, Abba's ways are and I'm glad to hear you are covered in blood. I'm learning about The LORD. I honestly adore Jesus and acknowledge The Holy Spirit daily with my praise and worship. I'm part of The Program of Christ since August 16, 2015, and I was 55 yrs old. I knew Jesus as a child and teenager. He never left my mind nor his ways. I was raised Catholic and left religion. I left for good. I was born again on 8/16/15. Now I see Christ in my Holy Baptism. Even my DOB is The date He chose. Of course, everyone has a chosen DOB but mines the end of the Age. Not positive about 6×6×6=216 & adding a 0 at the end to reveal 2160 the sign of the Pisces too. I got the idea from a video I watched. Timothy Alberino was on End Time Productions with the information. Made so much sense. I enjoy reading remarks on different churches because I learn so much and realize what an infant I am to the words of our Triune God, The One, The Light, and I stay busy in my studies about Him. I can never get enough. My head flies up for reasons and I groan and roar. He takes away blood disorders and things the world can't do for me, but He did. All I know is after the black powerful breath God came that day and engulfed me. The Ruach sounds like a rocket taking off on a launch pad at NASA. I used to go to NASA 5 days a week and I was born in Houston, TX. The immersing of The Puema reminded me of The Green Mile movie. Once my neck resumed normal range and my eyes opened He chained me and it was awesome, but I was freaking out. I had peace though. Now I get many supernatural gifts. I'm seeking everything I can and asking Jesus to help and He does. The Lady that was there that day her name was Dorothy. The ordeal was like The Wizard of Oz. I had no idea Jesus and Abba gave such blessed gifts. After He chained me, Dorothy finally told me to say my full name and ask Jesus Christ to forgive. The Holy Spirit unchained me and I watched the powerful black breath God leave the building. Its all way cool. Way awesome and to see the Breath of God resting above you is way supernatural. He's so cool and I know He loves cool spirits. Me 2 and if reads this I ty because I'm solitaires and I am one with the light and power. Some days it's Communion and Intercession with The Almighty God all day. I just love it so much and wanted to share. Maybe get a reply. All those that are of Christ love and love much. This month I will wear the engagement ring for 7.5 yrs. I hope this is the Jubilee. This May once again my birthday is on the Sabbath. I will be 63 in 23 & I was born on the Sabbath of 1960. The Almighty God is so precise and exact with numbers. People will ask me if I come into contact and I walk with Christ everywhere, so when I speak they'll ask, " How do you know all these things about Jesus?" I reply I'm in love with Him. Funny too because what a romantic intimate relationship and no human can get close. Been there and now I live with The Highest God and His Spirit flows through my veins. I look forward to meeting all my brothers and sisters ❤️. God blessed you and grace to you always Dear. 🙏
@@logiciskey7 may I suggest "Who is the bride?" with Jim Staley
As I listen to the telling of all the Father did at Mt Sinai I sense the enormous pleasure He must have at the retelling of His story. Contextualizando it … remembering the profound power and beauty of His love and commitment towards Israel so we can look forward to the consummation of this celebration with the wedding feast. He must delight in seeing His children entering into this beautiful revelation. Thanks Joel for ushering us in!!!
Joel, in all my 47 years of being saved, and my 40+ years of being post-trib, never have I heard such a more enlightening and glorious sermon about the marriage of the Lamb. That was anointed of God. Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful! Your exegesis was spot on. I’ve never heard but maybe a half dozen sermons on the pre-trib rapture in all these years. Your videos are both refreshing and confirmation of all the things the Holy Spirit taught me from the scriptures in the past 4 decades (not that I needed confirmation). All my churches that I have been a member of, Baptist, Word of Faith (1980s), and Assembly of God, have been pre-trib. In all these years, I have met only one post-trib believer from another church in another state. It’s been rough at times, especially when mockery and hate and accusations that your demon possessed for believing in a post-trib rapture, has been hurled at you. All the while, you know in your heart by the Spirit of God that the pre-trib scenario is not biblical. But I will not back down or capitulate to satisfy anybody. I got the greater majority of what I know directly from the scriptures. For over thirty years, even to this day, I haven’t read post-trib books, only pre-trib. I read one short post-trib book in the early 80s by Jim McKeever (?), and ended up throwing it away because he was an early advocate of prepping for the tribulation, and sold the stuff himself. I knew then there would be no way to stay on your land if you didn’t have the mark. So, I chunked him. Maybe a year or two later, after waffling back and forth between PTR and post-trib, I landed on post-trib for good. But I held out 10% just in case I had missed something. And I decided then to read only pre-trib books to see if they could answer my questions, or offer something I had not seen, of course, they all failed on both accounts. But I have so enjoyed digging it out for myself from the scriptures. “They [Gentile believers] will come from the East and the West, and sit down [in Zion, to eat ] with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of God [on earth], and you [Jews, the sons of the kingdom, who rejected Me] shall be cast out…” Just as you quoted Luke, “I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God [comprised of King Jesus and all His kings-saints] COMES [on earth].” The Lord showed me that some years ago, and it gave me joy to hear you say it on tv. Praise God!
Not remembering our unfaithfulness sounds so amazingly delightful. Moving on from this hellish body of death will be so amazing... like a million pounds being lifted off our backs and clouds wiped away from our minds.
Love FAI & all its teachings. Joel, you make me laugh. This ain't no barbecue and you just make me belly laugh at times. Thank you for that 2. Go's bless 🙌 🙏
Excellent teaching my brother. It all comes back to how it started. Jesus said we have 2 days that He would be gone. On the third day He returns & is glorified in all Jos people. Scripture tells us that Jesus was saying in man’s time. We would have two thousand years to get ready. At the dawn of the 3rd day He will appear. This will then take us into what John calls the last day. Or the Sabbath day which is the final thousand years or the day of rest. Because Satan will be bound for the last day or thousand year period. Over & over in scripture Jesus warns us not to be asleep on the third day. God Bless you for teaching the truth of Gods word. We need to expose this pre tribulation lie. May God lead our brothers & sisters into all truth. Might they be able to overcome the deceitful lies of the enemy.
Beautiful teaching! Maranatha!
Thank you Joel…amazing talk. Loved it.
Gods bless and Maranatha
Amen. Mount Zion is a hill in Jerusalem, located just outside the walls of the Old City. I believe anything is possible with God. Glory to Him in the highest!
Just wanted to say thank you so much for your time and effort put into sharing what God has revealed to you. I’ve been a Christian for 42 years. I’m 71 years old and I’ve heard so much especially since the explosion of the Internet. And I think that’s why there’s so much confusion and that’s my own opinion. Before the Internet you had to go out and read and read and read and listen. listen to the tapes and glean what you could. As a Vietnam veteran and seen the horrors of war I never understood why my brothers and sisters are being persecuted and murdered throughout history with the church because I have faith I’m just gonna be taken out because really I don’t know why- I believe if I will have to go through, and God will do a supernatural outpouring of his spirit. Thank you so much and I pray to God and that your ministry. No matter what happens. Whatever you believe in the rapture you had Believe in the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Love you guys. 👌☮️✝️🙏🏻
Thank God for your teaching faithfully.
This study was and is very important and helpful. It answers fundamental questions about the bride and groom of the wedding.
I asked pastors about this a long time ago and they could give me no answers. And I have heard all about what you just exposed concerning their explanation of their interpretation of the two brides.
Marriage in heaven during the tribulation et al.
God bless you. Joel Richardson and all of the brave people at FAI and the supporters
That was so wonderful. Thank you so much.
Awesome. So good. So clear and well put. Thankyou, so much Lord. 🙏
Blessings Joel
I will clean up after the kids….. YES and AMEN. 😂 I’m not married but I would love to hear that 😩
This is so good Joel. Thank you so much. I bless you and your family and the FAI family
I remember as the Lord was leading me out of pre trib error... Seeing in ephesians that the Jews and the church are joined as one new man and I couldn't fit anything of the pre trib wedding feast etc into the scripture in ephesians
Me too! If anyone who believes in Jesus is part of the bride, why would he take 1/2 the bride in a pretrib rapture, and then those who accept him later would be brought to him later? It doesn’t make sense
thesundaynight, the _bride and wedding_ are used for one metaphor, and the _one new man_ for a different metaphor. They are separate metaphors, so fitting them together would be an error called mixing metaphors.
Yes I too was shown that scripture in Ephesians
Foolish five Virgin brides found in JEREMIAH 7, believe they attain SALVATION WITHOUT ANY REPENTANCE NEEDED. THE ABORTIONIST, IDOLATORS and the oppressors who never repented JEREMIAH 7 STIPULATES. LUKE 13;3 WITHOUT REPENTANCE WE SHALL ALL PERISH.
SIN UNTO DEATH 1JOHN 5;16 AN ENIGMA UNTIL NOW IS NOT ABIDING IN LOVE WITH ONE ANOTHER OR WE QUENCH THE HOLY SPIRIT, THUS NO OIL.
Seer, TRIBE OF SIMEON
Math 27:52-53 is pre-trib is prior to Nero. Is Hebrew Day called "First Fruits" is yes Rev 14 : 4 yes will all be youtful virgins again 1 Cor 16:53 There is an event every 1000 yrs Enoch if first 1000 yrs JESUS YESHUA walked with Adam And Eve. Three events on each side of the cross. Like the Menorah. HE stated "coming again" So yes also mid' trib ( prewarath) then also post- trip. But NO Marriage Supper is heavenly. Zeck 14 there os NO reserectio. HE comes with the 'saints' ( asleep , dead , alive , lazuruis, 2 witness and Rev 20 those "beheaded' ( same catching up as 2 witnesses) 1 Thes 4:14 those asleep come with HIM - also on firms.Math 27: 52 as dies Rev 14:4. So how does Post- tribe's like Richardson. deal with this. Nope don't even mention this. Most avoid Math 27:52-53 even when asked. Yeh "too bussy" ( just an excuse ) like all the Pastors needing to be a board meeting. LoL That's why we have Pres and Vice Pres. One is there dint need both. But people just make excuses. It's called "lying lips" Darkness doesn't want to come to the LIGHT. Yeh call us 1 Four Zero Three Eight Zero Three Fortyone Twentyfour. Hope/ pray / fast to C u's. WALK in the LIGHT lest the darkness over take us. Solar eciose April yes this yr 2024 forms Capital " A" over all of North Americia. But how many like Richardson promote what ? Do they call NO why ? Saw holoogran of 3rd Temple in Israel in 2019 NO wall to touch but Rabi pastors and how many others chose to promote 3rd Temple yet. Math 24: 13-15 is NOT dietary issue but is 'covtousness" now being called "good chridtaian stewardship" ( yeh get tax deduction too from athestic Gov system LoL ) Ezeck 34 is happening. WAKE UP
I’ve listened to several pre tribulation teachers for a couple of year, some Joel has mentioned by name, Non of them teach the wedding is in heaven or that the church replaced Israel. I’ll be ecstatic to finally meet my savior no matter when it is. I truly believe I’m blessed to have found all that FAI and many other teachers have out online since I can’t seem to find a local church home. Maranatha
Pretribbers do not teach that we have replaced Israel, but they do teach that we will go to heaven to enjoy the marriage supper.
@@JoelRichardson Joel, the marriage supper is after the Tribulation (Rev 19:6-9) and after the Rapture, the raptured are the multitude in Rev 19:1. It is the same multitude of Rev 7:9+14, who were raptured at the 7th trump to get their reward at the Bema (Rev 11:15-18) afterwards is the Wedding and the going down to earth for the battle of Armageddon (Rev 19:11-16). The raptured are out of space and time, they travel with the speed of thought, very quick and the Bema and the Wedding are in the time of 2.Peter 3:8, They are back very soon (Luke 17:29+30).
I was a pre trip believers because it was almost the first and most important part of our Christian tradition/ teaching. I've change my mind since studying for myself the Scriptures. This is one of the best explanations i've heard about the bride of Yeshua ha'Mashiah. Blessings to you guys, Maranatha 🙏🙏
If someone who never heard of Bible or end times etc…. Picked up a Bible and used only GODS WORD to come to a conclusion. 100 out of 100 people would say post tribulation. The church goes through the tribulation at the end of the world.
This is so great and so helpful!! Thank you very much for teaching this!
Brilliant, thank you.
MARANATA !
LORD JESUS IS COMING SOON AMEN !
GOD BLESS ISRAEL AMEN !!!

Very helpful. I am so thankful for your channel :)
So good! 🔥
I’m 80% Swedish, I’ll be the palest kid there😆! We are ONE race guys! Praise God🙏🏼❤️!

Hi Joel, Thank you for the work you've put into this study. I'm so thankful to the Lord for finally finding some Biblical Eschatology that is based on how Scripture lays these things out. The one point I have difficulty with is the assumption that the 70th week from Daniel 9:24-27 is somehow far off in the future. I can only see that there is 3 1/2 of time when the Antichrist and the false prophet make an appearance. How wonderful to see Paul's teaching from Ephesians 2 used. As I am in complete agreement that Dispensationism and the pre-tribulation rapture teaching is definitely replacement theology and I'd go as far as saying that it's Antisemitic. I saw Jimmy Evans on UA-cam the other day, and it's just the arrogant statements that that's what the text says, but without qualifying these statements from Scripture. On this occasion, he taught from Luke 17 to prove a pre-tribulation rapture, but he completely missed out verse 30 that said it's when Jesus returns in His glory and then explained that Matthew 24 does show a post trib rapture. I really don't see how these people can't see what Scripture clearly shows. The fact that this teaching is standard Eschatology for the Plymouth Brethren (a cult without doubt). I also understand that a Jesuit Priest had put much of this teaching together, making it all the more suspect, in my opinion. Anyway, just to say, it's a great teaching series. Blessings Jeff 🙌

Thank you Joel. You have cleared up some of my confusion with the marriage of the Lamb in Revelation 19. We have a multitude in heaven singing Hallelujah after the bowls of judgement and it is time for the marriage of the Lamb and bride. Then we see Christ on the white horse coming with his saints to tread the winepress of wrath. The aftermath brings on the great supper of God. I wonder if these aspects are connected. The bride as the gathered saints with Christ on white horses return to earth for the marriage of the Lamb and the wedding banquet and great supper of God. The combining of the glory of the bride and Lamb`s marriage with the gory scene of trampling in the winepress and vultures feasting on the great supper of God is consistent with the parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew 22. The ones that do not belong are cast into outer darkness. And on that day when the Son of Man comes the vultures gather for the corpses taken in judgement(Matthew24:27,28). Both the glory of salvation and the gore of judgement go together on the Day of the Lord.
Revelation 14: the 24 Elders the 144,000 and the Great Multitude Standing before the Lord on Mt Zion !
I believe the wedding supper is in heaven
And yet there are many feasts.
Is there any way you might be able to broadcast the Maranatha Endtimes Bible Summit? I am sure many of us would pay to listen. Many of us, I am sure, cannot make it, but would be willing to pay to watch live or taped.
It will be recorded and uploaded in the app as was our past conference in Israel at the beginning of 2020.
@@nikolaiboyadjiev7120 thank you
I wasn't going to listen to this but I am really happy that it Did........Thank you, I wish to hear the remainder of sessions
Amen And Amen
A Good Word!!!
PS. Is there a longer version of the opening song somewhere??
The pre-tribulation dispensational teaching is a perversion of truth! Great Study!
I disagree. We are kept out of the hour where God pours out His WRATH. We are not appointed to Wrath. People who say the word Rapture in the Bible are not totally correct. Although the English word for Rapture is not in the Bible because the word was not around then. But the Greek word for Rapture is in the Bible.
@@noahhaonsmith6963 Gee, God poured out His Wrath on Pharoah and his army, protected His own throughout the plagues, protected Noah during the flood. Why would He need to remove someone to protect them from His wrath? What's different this time around?
@@gtw4546 But this period of time will be the worst in all of human history. So it won't be like other times. Jesus said it will be the worst time in human history. But also says in Revelation 3 that were will be kept from the Greek uses. It would say keep through if we went through it. Not to mention the Old Testament is a different Covenant. We have a New and Better Covenant. Although though the English word for Rapture is not in the Bible but the Greek word for Rapture is. But we disagree. It is not one of the major things we disagree on.
@@noahhaonsmith6963 It's a "new" covenent the way we have a "new" moon. RENEWED would be a better translation. Keep in mind that the early believers in Messiah only had the TaNaK - what we now call the "old testament." The apostolic writings can't be properly understood without realizing that they are commentaries on the body of Scripture that they had already had.
You are right when you say "it won't be like other times" but I think we disagree as to WHY . Consider that tribulations test our faith to ensure it is genuine and open our eyes when it falls short. Peter thought he was ready to die for Jesus, but couldn't even admit to knowing him and denied him three times before the cock crowed. Ouch! To see that your ideas about your own faith and loyalty were only an egotistic self-delusion. Poor Peter! Yet Peter had time to get his faith in better order and eventually DID die for his beliefs. So why is the tribulation at the end of this age "great"? Isn't it simply because the time is short and things must be wrapped up quickly? Would you really want people who aren't true believers to receive resurrection bodies? Just some things to chew on! Shalom.
@@gtw4546 I really don't believe that we will be part of those 21 Judgments from God. I guess we will have to see.
"it isn't any old BBQ..."! Excellent, well stated. Looking forward to the videos ahead. "... and made them a Kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the Earth."
How can the marriage supper of the Lamb be during the great Tribulation, if the Bride descends from heaven prepared for the wedding after the creation of the New heavens and new earth? Hmmmm.
I agree. The notion that God would behave like that is disgusting. We are grafted in. Our destiny and Israel's is the same. God hasn't changed. He is just and true in all his ways.
Here is the order of ancient Hebrew marriage tradition.
1.Groom leaves Fathers house
2. Marriage covenant offered.(Joel said Gods might right hand forces Israel to be His Wife.)
3. Bread and Wine seal the covenant.
4. Groom pays price for The Bride.
5.Groom departs to Fathers house and builds bridal chamber.
6.The Groom is Absent. Bride Must remain faithful.
7. Father must inspect and approve or “room addition”
8.Groom goes to retrieve His Bride.
9.wedding Party has torchlight procession to Brides home.
10. Groomsmen lift Bride from the ground and carry her to Groom.
11.Groom takes Bride to Fathers house.
12.Bride and Groom consummate in wedding chamber for 7 days.
13. after 7 days, Groom unveils His Bride for all the world to see.
14. Wedding Party and invited guests have a wedding supper/feast.
15. Bride live together in their new home together.
I love Hebrew prayer..Blessed the G=d of Israel
Bad Doctrine leads to more bad doctrine- One God, One more coming -one bride - one marriage supper on Mount Zion!! At the end of the 70th week of Jacobs Trouble!!
😅 the tribulation Saints~ are sinners who then chose to Repent and become Saints.
😢
They are left behind because at the time they did not have a relationship with God. Thus we will wait for them a little longer like God said
I saw the movie yesterday and loved it. It was my story. It spread to Austin TX where I lived and there was a huge hippie community (most college towns did). Austin also had a gay community and I hung out with some of them (although that was not what I was in to). I’ve had a couple of gay friends since and I loved them, but I will admit, I don’t have a lot of patience with this gay movement being pushed on my grandchildren (I have 15). 2 of my grands have been affected by it (they have gay moms) and I think I am too angry to have much patience with it. I’m much more concerned about my grands than I am their moms. One grand has been in such a bad situation I had to get CPS to take her at the age of 7 away from her mom. It’s like the house is burning down, the mom started the fire and sorry, but I’m going to save my granddaughter. You are on your own, mom. I’ve shared Jesus with the mom and she doesn’t want Him. So-I’m trying to protect my granddaughter.
🙏🏼
I am with you the pre tribes think the marriage supper is seven years long scripture it shows up in Rev 19
Aren’t we all one under Christ? No Jew or Gentile all are one under Christ.
Yes
No one talks about our mother Israel that is above. You must be born again. Israel is the church of true believers. Born again believers. Most people just don't understand it's spiritual The new Jerusalem comes down from above. What comes down a city? No that's silly it's the holy spirit that comes down. You must be born again.
There is a character in scripture whose presence is fundamental to understanding the Gospel of the Kingdom, but is largely ignored and unnoticed by the majority of believers. In fact, many passages that speak of this character often get misapplied to us believers ("no weapon formed against you shall prosper", etc). This character is Zion, aka the New Jerusalem, aka the Holy City, and so on.
If the Gospel is a PB&J sandwich, Jesus is the peanut butter, we are the jelly, and Zion is the bread holding us together. Zion is the "bride" in the metaphoric marriage narrative, used to illustrate our resurrection and the initiation of the new covenant. "She" is spoken of - and spoken to - by the Father all throughout scripture. Upon our resurrection, she is our inheritance and our "mother." This is why we are called the children of Zion. We are her "sons." Her presence on earth is what will bless all the nations. They will walk by her light and come to her gates to learn the Law of the Lord. Her being clothed in the righteous acts of the saints is a reference to our coming resurrection, wherein we will be raised from the grave and taken up into her to hide for a short while as Yeshua descends to pour out His wrath (He will "pass over" us, thus fulfilling the Feast of Passover).
This character is integral to comprehending the whole story, but forgotten and misunderstood by most following and teaching the Word. She waits patiently above us for her coming glory - and for the fulfillment of the promises made to her. I implore you to spend more time studying the City of Zion and her role in our salvation.

I always wondered should we too not drink of the fruit of grapes now until the Kingdom of God, with Jesus when He returns?
Hello family! Hey I’m doing a Bible study over these topics and I am wondering if there is a good resource available. The one I’m hoping to have is a list of all the Old Testament references in revelation. I know the Bible is the best one, but I really want to make this as simple as possible for us (including myself 😅). Thank you!
I am including the clearest most simple and direct explanation of the scriptures regarding this topic above. Please see my comment there.
I want to come to the conference in Texas July I want to come to the conference in Texas /July , I can’t seem to find where to register at could someone give me that information
14Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came to Galilee, preaching the gospel [f]of the kingdom of God, 15and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God [g]is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.”
Is that March 7 @ 7:00 AM EST
So I was kind of hoping you spoke about the 10 virgins. I was waken up from my sleep 3 times I knew it was God waking me up and the third time I awoke I heard 10 virgins. I just needed more clarity on it.
In three weeks I cover the parable of the foolish and wise virgins.
So true... I just expressed this same sentiment on another post by a pre trib person. There's no way the church is going to be up in Heaven celebrating with Yeshua while His own people are down on earth being persecuted, some to death...can you imagine the lunacy? "Hey Israel, the food's literally Heavenly, and the party is out of this world, but no worries!....there's plenty of leftovers." I honestly don't know how preachers like Amir, Jimmy Evans and others can actually believe pre trib? I understand that Jimmy Evans used to believe in post trib or at least pre wrath, then converted to pre trib?? It makes more sense that the constituents, who are not Bible scholars, would be led astray, but as a church leader who studies the Word and turns away from Biblical truth when it is presented to them, still clinging to that falsehood? I do not grasp that at all.
Love this thank you. One question if i may. If Israel is the bride, and us, the Gentile are crafted in, and we form part of the bride, who is the guests at the wedding? Thanks in advance
Good question, wow
Interesting question. I wonder if it could be the Holy Angels?
Jesus Christ wife is 1 real women not the body of Christ. The church has been teaching us lies remember the dragon hates the woman. A man can’t be a bride nor children nor numerous women. Jesus Christ and his wife are the last Adam and Eve. Jesus gave a parable about father making a marriage for his son, this was about Jesus and his wife she is daughter of Zion and Jerusalem she has many names like Jesus. Song of Solomon is about Jesus and his wife psalm 45 is about Jesus and his wife the queen in gold of opher. These men teach what the evil one wants. Do as scripture says let no man deceive you and you have no need that any man teach you the Holy Spirit will teach you. Please research this mystery his wife is the unveiling the revelation.
I've been talking about this all week, once someone thinks the church is the bride they lose the chance to understand anything in eschatology. It's israel.
The lamb redeemed Israel and created a spotless bride, the lion of Judah is the groom, the lamb lying with the lion . Uniting the two sticks in marriage covenant.
The Church is the Bride of Christ. Israel in scriptures was known as the Bride of God. But it is two different Covenants.
All covenants are stacked as one renewed covenant.
@@noahhaonsmith6963
Both covenants are with the House of Israel:
Jer 31:31 "The time is coming ' declares the Lord, 'when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah'.
Jesus said He came 'to the lost sheep of the house of Israel' Matthew 15:24
@@michaelconwynunn4589 Yes. The Old Testament was given only to the Jews. The New was given also to the Jews. When Jesus rose from the dead gentiles were adopted into the family. I was just trying to say the old One and the NEW One are different. Not everyone who is Jewish is going to Heaven. Many believe the lie that if you are Jewish you will be saved. And they get it from a verse in the Bible.. All of Israel will be saved. But they misunderstand that verse. Jesus wouldn't of told the Jewish people about hell if there was no way some are going there. The Gentiles come in after the Cross.. So when Jesus talked about hell it was to the Jews. And then to everyone else.
We are in the age of Grace and it ends during the marriage supper then there is no more Grace on Earth, then after the marriage heaven will be the heaven of peace and Bliss when Jesus becomes one with his wife. The adjetive of Jesus is peace and the adjetive of the bride is Bliss. This is inside things youll understand when you meet the Bride.
What is the normal age for marriage?
Agree with an earlier comment that the parable of the ten virgins should be discussed, given the wedding imagery. 5 were foolish and shut out after they went to buy from those who sell. That sounds like tribulation times when buying and selling is restricted, and not post-tribulation marriage. Any other way to interpret it?
Jesus is marrying one woman she also goes by Israel Jerusalem Shekinah glory and a lot of other names
Brother Joel I learn much from your teachings and pray you’re able to continue for a long time. I’ve always had a question about the 70 weeks of daniel. Why do they take 69 weeks and stop at that and then take the last week and stick it on the end of the age when shouldn’t it go right after the 69th week?
You’re absolutely right, there’s no exegetical justification in separating the 70th week and throwing it 2000 years into the future...... it was Jesus Christ who confirmed the New Covenant, not an antichrist character making peace deals with Israel.
God bless you in your quest for truth
You are so right. The Father would not have 2 brides. Just like Adam only had Eve. Marriage is an absolute symbol of all those who follow Jesus becoming 1 with the Father. “And for this reason the 2 shall become one flesh.” 54:31
Thanks Joel. Excellent teaching. I have always been uncomfortable with the idea of pre tribulation rapture. It just doesn't make sense to me.
The church is the bride and the wedding feast is for everyone in the book of life as far as I know. So I believe it happens after the second coming of Christ. I will be looking forward to your opinion. God bless brother.
Can u give bible for church being the bride of Christ?
@@brucejarrell5707
Acts 7:38 KJV
[38] This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
The church is all believers of all time!
Then who is attending the wedding? Who are the people who escape as if their butts are on fire?
@@brucejarrell5707 New Covenant Whole Gospel:
Let us now share the Old Testament Gospel found below with the whole world. On the road to Emmaus He said the Old Testament is about Him.
He is the very Word of God in John 1:1, 14. Awaken Church to this truth.
Jer 31:31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
Jer 31:32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by
husband unto them, saith the LORD:
Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Is the most important genealogy in the Bible found in Matthew 1:1 (Gal. 3:16)? Is God's Son the ultimate fulfillment of Israel (John 1:49)? Why has the modern Church done a pitiful job of sharing the Gospel with modern Orthodox Jews? Why would someone tell them they are God's chosen people and then fail to share the Gospel with them? Who is the seed of the woman promised in Genesis 3:15? Who is the "son" in Psalm 2? Who is the "suffering servant" of Isaiah 53? Who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34? Who would fulfill the timeline of Daniel chapter 9 before the second temple was destroyed? Why have we not heard this simple Old Testament Gospel preached on Christian television in the United States on a regular basis?
Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, man-made Bible doctrines fall apart.
Let us now learn to preach the whole Gospel until He comes back. The King of Israel is risen from the dead! (John 1:49, Acts 2:36)
We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant church of Mount Zion and the blood in Hebrews 12:22-24.
1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
1Jn 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
1Jn 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
Watch the UA-cam videos “The New Covenant” by David Wilkerson, or Bob George, and David H.J. Gay.
@Kean Salzer in Daniel 7 v13-14 we see that Jesus goes to the Father and receives the kingdom. That would be the marriage. Jesus then comes to take His bride to the marriage supper afterwards. However, prior to His coming the total number of subjects who make up the kingdom must already be complete. When He comes for His bride, that would kick off the millennial reign in heaven.
The pattern of the grafting starts with Adam and Eve. Eve is grafted out,a separation just like the separation of Israel and Judah,only to end with Eve,a type of Israel grafting in those like Adam,a type of Judah.
Joel Richardson, I have wanted to ask you this question for a while now. I agree that Israel is the Bride. My question is in Revelation 19:8
It was given to her to clothe herself in fine linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
....It says that her fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. If the saints were the bride, wouldn't the fine linen be her righteous acts?
To me this verse seems to make a definite separation between the bride and the saints. I just want to clearly understand. Thank you
How do you then interpret and/or explain 2 Corinthians 11:2 and Romans 7:4
I think Joel has said before he doesn't manage his UA-cam channel, so he probably won't see this, but I have a question in regards to the timing of the marriage supper/ feast. I agree with all that Joel said about WHO the bride is, but I just question the WHEN. In Messianic Kingdom passages like Is. 65-66 we see the blessings on God's people in the land, living long lives, having descendants, etc. Death still happens though and it is described. Thus those people do not yet have glorified bodies. Also if they are in their resurrected bodies then as Jesus taught, there would be no marriage and giving in marriage, and obviously no descendants. And if people are born in the Millennium and come to Christ in the Millennium, will they not be the bride of Christ as well? If the Marriage supper happened in the beginning of the Millennium they missed it. The way I read Rev. 20 is that the only ones resurrected in the first resurrection (post-trib) are the tribulation saints and the rest of the dead remain dead until the end of the 1000 years. The way I read it is they, through being faithful unto death, were the ones who were qualified through their martyrdom to become the government of the Kingdom Age. THEY will rule and reign with Christ. Is it not possible that the marriage feast will be at the end of the Millennium, when all those who ever served Him, including those born hundreds of years into the Millennium, and loved Him, will be part of the marriage feast? We do know there will be those who turn against Jesus when Satan crosses the earth after his release from captivity. Rev. 20:7-9 describes this event. They will surround the Holy City and the Saints. Who are the saints? What threat would mortals be to those with glorified bodies? No, I believe those saints are mortal too, and Jesus rescues them. In other words the Kingdom will be inhabited by mortal people who will live long lives again, but are not free from death, except for the resurrected tribulation martyrs. Daniel 12:2 seems to indicate the simultaneous resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous, which will be right at the end of time. That is when I see the marriage supper happening, perhaps after the final judgement, when death, hell and the grave have been destroyed, when Jesus has ruled until all kingdoms have become subject to Him, when a New Heaven and New Earth is created, with a completely different eco-system. No sea, no solar system, no temple. Only Jesus will be our light.
I agree with much of what you are saying... that the congregation is the household of faith, but i humbly suggest you consider that there is one woman who is the bride- the Lamb's wife and the bride are specifically in the scriptures... scripture speaks of friends of the bridegroom, wedding guests, virgins (companions of the bride) - there is a mother and a father to the household and of God and once you see it in scripture you can't unsee it!! She is KEY to birthing the new world- the new millenium.
Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the [k]remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call.”
Matthew chpt.4 17FROM THAT TIME JESUS BEGAN TO PREACH AND TO SAY, REPENT:FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND
I died to the law by the body of Christ that. I might be joined to another to him was raised from the dead that I might bear fruit to God.
Only wedding you need to look at is that of Jacob to leha and then Rachel and then hanging around for the cattle. The entire 20 year span is the pattern.
What do you base the idea that we will retain some element of race at the ressurrection? I thought we were all originally mixed and that races divided because of language confusion brought about at the tower of Babel when families became isolated from each other and the totality of the gene pool was no longer readily available.
As a human with human understanding of words. It always seemed strange the anologies used ( wooing, courting, wife, bridegroom ect )
God spoke to us in terms we would understand. For most of history, analogies from agriculture and marriage would have been easily understood. Now He may be speaking to us of programmers and avatars and apps, but that would have been nonsense past generations.
Great presentation. I'm still a little confused. Who are the guests at the marriage supper? I've always thought as a gentile I was an invited stranger guest to the marriage supper. And guests arrive to the party before the bride does.
The Ten Virgin's, 5 Faithful Wise Virgin's, with the Oil of the Holy Spirit, and 5 Unfaithful Foolish Virgin's without the Oil of the Holy Spirit. 5 Faithful Wise Virgin's get into the Marriage Supper of the Lamb Jesus Christ, and 5 Unfaithful Foolish Virgin's, don't get into the Marriage Supper of the Lamb Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ tells them Depart from Me I never knew you !
@@scott596 That doesn't explain who the guests are. The bride is chosen from the Father's home land.
@@yahruachson2786 Israel is the Bride !
Lol, in session 8 I asked, "Have you considered doing a session on dispensational theology as a framework on which these pretribulational teachings hang?", and you didn't disappoint. Thanks Joel and maranatha indeed!
Beautiful how it was always Gods plan to bring jew and gentile together to make up His bride.. like Ruth and boaz..
The bride will be removed soon from the planet she’ll be taken to heaven and she’ll be reunited with the father and the son and her family and that is where the wedding will be taking place the marriage supper of the lamb later on will be on the earth there is two different suppers there’s a wedding supper of the lamb and there’s a lame supper of the of the lamb and this is just how it is he has one bride one woman he was married to her before the foundations of the world and he will be reunited with her after many years
Amen.
Read Rev 21v1,2 & v9-11.
John was shown by the angel, the Bride, not the church, but the New Jerusalem coming down from heaven dressed as a Bride.
One question, why have you chosen a CATHOLIC mother and son image as your thumbnail?
What’s your take on the Divorce of Yahweh and his Ashera?
ONE QUESTION: ? HOW DO I UNDERSTAND THAT THE CONCEPT OF CHURCH IS THE BODY OF JESUS, AND BEING THE BODY OF MESSIAH, IS ALSO GRASPED INTO THE ORIGINAL OLIVE TREE THAT IS THE BRIDE?
KJV actually speaks of the church in the wilderness. Acts 7 I think. It is speaking of Israel in the wilderness.
Same chapter calls Joshua Jesus (bc they had same name).
Thank you, I never saw this, it is Acts 7:45. I knew, that Yeshua is the shortcut of Jehoshua (H3091) ben Nun of the Hebrew bible (Neh 8:15; 12:7). Joshua is a translation and Iesous (G2424) that became Jesus is also a translation of the Hebrew Jehoshua and Jeshua in the Greek Septuagint. Acts 7 says that Yeshua is God, who appeared to Moses in the burning bush (YHWH) and gave the 10 commandments to Israel and the Lord of Heaven (1.Cor 15:47) became flesh, the second Adam to die for our sins (Isa 53:6)
I have a question that is gnawing at me. Some, if not many will say it's stupid. However, I really need to understand. Please help. Are we still to follow the Torah, or has that been done away with?
What say Revelation 19?
Covenant...as in all his commandments and holy days,his Feast?
I ASK IF AT THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS TO LAND ON MOUNT O OLIVES, IS COMING ALSO THE NEW JERUSALEM WITH HIM ? WHERE IS THE FATHER GOD IN THIS PROCESS?
As someone who used to be a dispensationalist but no longer is, I don't understand why nondispensationalists think dispensational theology is complicated. It isn't. It divides the content of the Bible into two parts: law, which is meant for Israel (ethnic Jews), and grace, which is meant for the Church (Gentile Christians) - and never the twain shall meet. Once you understand this division, the rest of the theology falls into place.
Regarding the Marriage Supper of the Lamb being on Mount Zion, how exactly would that physically work? Hundreds of millions, potentially even billions, of Christians in their glorified bodies sitting around a gigantic dinner table, having supper with Jesus? That's an absurdity. The physicality of that is impossible.
How can a bride be guests at their own wedding
God marries only one woman the fathers only daughter, the sister the bride of jesus Christ. "My sister my bride my dove" its simple to understand if you understand what jesus went through when he was here and the Pharisees wouldn't except God had a son. People cant believe he has a daughter. I know for a fact he does.
