When the Whore is Destroyed and the Bride Shines

Rev 19:1  And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2  For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. 3  And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. 4  And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. 5  And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. 6  And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. 7  Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8  And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints. 9  And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

When she who has masqueraded as the Church is finally judged, the true Bride of Christ rises to shine forever. The false church martyred true believers to the tune of 50 million throughout the dark ages. The true Bride had been driven underground by the Babylonian/Roman whore, hounded, persecuted and killed. She was forced to worship in catacombs and Piedmontese mountain caves. Her members were stretched on the rack, burned at the stake, and suffered heinous and horrible indecencies.

But now is her time to shine. These are all of His servants, those that fear Him, both small and great.

As a result, four alleluias ascend to the throne from the throng in heaven, from the twenty-four elders and the four beasts and from the voice of a great multitude which sounds like Niagara rushing over the falls and like mighty thunders.

Here, death and suffering has been avenged. Irrevocable judgment has been met. Prayers of "when will it all end?" will be turned into eternal praise. That institution, admixture of Babylonian idolatry, global merchandising of souls and religious subjugation, has been avenged by heaven and the smoke of her torment rises up forever and ever.

Hallelujah!
