When will the Bride of Christ be united in formal marriage to Christ?
The Bride of Christ, which is the Body of Christ, will be united in formal marriage to Christ after believers have been caught up to be with Him in Heaven. The context describes this as the Wedding Feast, with Old Testament saints present as wedding guests.
Les explains that the Bride of Christ is the Body of Christ, and the formal marriage union occurs after the church has been caught up to be with Him in Heaven. He connects this to the Wedding Feast imagery, noting that Old Testament saints will come in as wedding guests. Psalm 45:8-12 is cited, and verse 13 mentions the King's daughter as all glorious and present for the Feast.
