The Bride of Christ (Part Two)

Feast of Tabernacles Sermon by Mark Schindler

This insightful message delivered on the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles, explores the compelling spiritual significance of the ancient water-pouring ceremony from the Pool of Siloam, culminating in Jesus' declaration in John 7:37-39 that He was the true source of living water dispensing the Holy Spirit - fulfilling Irael's Messianic hope. This ritual foreshadows God's plan to prepare the Church as the Bride of Christ by refining her faith, obedience, and spiritual discipline, enabling her to be united with Him at His return. I Corinthians 2:11-13 teaches us that our daily choices build character that will endure divine testing providing Christ is the exclusive foundation. By aligning with God's divine order, we do our part in yielding to this active preparation. Isaiah 9-12 and Jeremiah 30-31 present prophesies Christ's role as the Word, orchestrating historical event to restore physical Israel as well as all creation under His government of peace. As Jesus Christ's perfected helpmate, the Bride will share in a redemptive mission, assisting, and teaching truth to the post-Tribulation remnant of Israel as well as preparing the splendiferous Holy City. The Eighth Day festival anticipates the universal offer of salvation, with the Bride, patterned after the virtuous woman of Proverbs 31, actively serving alongside Christ. God's chosen saints should rejoice in their role, inviting all to partake of the "water of life" (Revelation 22:17) which symbolizes salvation and eternal unity with God's purpose.
