Revelation 10v7

But in the days of the voice of
the seventh angel, when he
shall begin to sound, the
mystery of God should be
finished, as he hath declared
to his servants the prophets.

Esther

The stories in the Bible are not just stories, nor are they just historical records. They are stories, they are historical facts but they are also Types and Patterns.
For example lets take the book of Esther.
Esther is the only book in the Bible that doesn’t have the words God or Lord. It was almost left out of Biblical cannon because of that.
But read the book, catch the highlights of the story. There is a king. He has a beautiful wife whose name is Vashti. The King is celebrating and he wants to show off the Queens beauty so he sends seven chamberlains each with a message to call her.
The queen is having her own feast and celebrating with her friends. She refuses to heed any of the seven messengers and stays at her own feast in her own palace.
The king is displeased and worried. Such rebellion could spread through all his kingdom. What should he do?
He decides to divorce Vashti and find Himself a new queen, a pure virgin, someone who will honour him and his position. Of all those brought before him he chooses Esther, a Jew.
And we stop there. There are more types later in the story when Haman tries to destroy all the Jews, but that was Germany in the nineteen thirties and forties and is not part of this study.
There is a King of kings. He has a wife, the church. The king has sent seven messengers (angels) to seven church ages. The church always denominates, sets her doctrines and will not listen to the new word of the King of kings. She has her own word and feasts on that.
So the King of Kings sends out a proclamation, a message, for all eligible women to present themselves. The prize is the throne seated beside the King of Kings. The prize is to be the Bride of the king.
In Revelation 18 v4 there is a call from God, the message for this time. Come out of her my people. God will divorce those that put their theology, their doctrine, their traditions before God’s own Word, the Bible.
What God is looking for is that holy person who, in whatever church they are, puts God and His Word first. There is the Bride of Christ.

Ref: Esther 1 v1-22 & 2 v1-18, Rev 2 v1-29 & 3 v1-22, Rev 18 v4, Ephesians 5 v24-28
