Revelation19:9

9 And he saith unto me, Write Blessed are they which are called to the marriage-supper of the Lamb : And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God .

Write it, as a Business of Moment, of which a Record is fit to be kept.

That is, (say those who understand by the Marriage of the Lamb the Jews Conversion) who live in this happy Period of Time when the Jews shall be converted, and with the Gentiles make one Gospel-Church. But this seems to me not sufficient. The Marriage is one thing, the Supper another, and (ordinarily) consequential to the Marriage it self. The Kingdom of Glory seems to me rather intended, and those are called to it, who are made meet for the Inheritance of the Saints in Light.

That is, these are the undoubted Truths of God, and therefore to be called into question by none.
