The souls and spirits of those who died with faith in the Messiah are reunited with resurrected bodies at the return of Christ, followed by the transformation of living believers in the Catching Away. Together they are caught up to meet the Son of God in the air.

Once in heaven, believers await their appearance before the Judgment Seat of Christ, where each receives evaluation for works done in the body. During this time, fellowship abounds among saints of all generations, with no language barriers, no need for sleep, and continual light in heaven.

The Marriage Supper of the Lamb does not begin until the final believer has appeared before Christ for judgment. A heavenly announcement calls all believers to a magnificent venue. The structure is a vast golden and crystal bowl capable of holding billions. Seating is arranged with honor given to Jesus, the apostles, early disciples, Old Testament patriarchs, prophets, and King David—who is set apart for future millennial leadership.

The ceremony begins with praise, followed by the appearance of Jesus in glory. He recounts the plan of redemption which stretched back to eternity past and His sacrificial death motivated by love. He invites all believers to become His eternal bride and the unified response affirms their devotion, and the marriage is declared complete. Fine linen garments are distributed, symbolizing the righteousness of the saints, and Jesus personally greets each believer.
