There <strong>the</strong> wedding is consummated. There sin is<br />

blotted out. There Christ sits down with His<br />

Remnant, and He assures <strong>the</strong>m that <strong>the</strong> "true<br />

tabernacle," His abiding place, is cleansed. His<br />

victory in conquering self is a guarantee that He<br />

has in all points been tempted like unto His<br />

brethren for every sin is born of a love of self. Thus<br />

as <strong>the</strong>y abide with Him in <strong>the</strong> most holy place, <strong>the</strong>y<br />

will by faith be uniting <strong>the</strong>ir humanity to His<br />

divinity, and <strong>the</strong>y will be one with Him in purpose<br />

and thus be "married" to Him. They will have <strong>the</strong><br />

faith of Jesus which keeps mortals from sinning.<br />

<strong>Then</strong> <strong>the</strong> work of <strong>the</strong> Mediator will be finished, <strong>the</strong><br />

sanctuary will be cleansed and restored to its<br />

rightful place, <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> 144,000 will have<br />

been purged. Sin will not rise again. This<br />

experience awaits <strong>the</strong> remnant whenever <strong>the</strong>y<br />

choose to accept <strong>the</strong> eyesalve of heavenly insight<br />

offered by <strong>the</strong> True Witness. And when her<br />

blindness is gone and at last she can "see," <strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong><br />

Bride will sit down with <strong>the</strong> King on His throne, as<br />

He has promised, for both have overcome by <strong>the</strong><br />

blood of <strong>the</strong> Lamb.<br />
