Page 40 - The Remnant Bride

Evidences of Separation

N ot all Christians will freely receive the message of a remnant Bride. Those who are
content with the things of the world and who are enjoying the pursuit of their own

interests will find the message to be somewhat threatening to their idyllic existence. The
western church is full of “easy believism.” The message of the disciple’s cross is largely

absent from our midst.
It is those who fail to walk in integrity before the Father who would cry foul at the

notion of God treating individual saints differently. The righteous have nothing to fear.
Those who are passionately pursuing their Savior have only longing and expectation for His

appearing.

I John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves

punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love.

The Bible is full of images of separation. God has always made a distinction between

who has confessed Christ by faith to receive the forgiveness of sins is pleasing to the Father.

Galatians 6:7
Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also

reap.

In the design of the Tabernacle of Moses, which was constructed in the wilderness,

to, the Father.
I do not have the space to go into an exhaustive teaching of the design and significance

of the tabernacle here. I will simply point out a few truths that are pertinent to an
understanding of the Bride. I want you to see that there is tremendous support for the idea
