What happens after the Bema seat judgment?

The next aspect following the Bema seat is the wedding, the marriage between Christ the Lamb and the Body, the Church. This wedding is expected in heaven while the Tribulation is here on earth. Believers, dead to the law by Christ's body, are married to Him who was raised from the dead to bring forth fruit unto God.

Les explains that after believers come through the Bema seat in glory, the next aspect is the wedding. He feels this wedding will be in heaven while the Tribulation is here on earth, and it is the wedding between Christ the Lamb and the Body, the Church. Paul writes concerning the Church and makes much of Christ and His Body. In Romans 7:4, Paul writes that believers are become dead to the law by the Body of Christ, not to be forgotten but to be married to another, even to Him who is raised from the dead, that they should bring forth fruit unto God. This begins in the earthly sojourn as soon as one becomes a child of God and a member of the Body of Christ through faith in the Gospel. Believers are already connected to Christ, joint heirs with Him; He is the Head, and they make up the members of the Body. Ephesians gets into deeper aspects of our position in Christ.
