In addressing the Laodiceans, Jesus may also have had another evening meal in mind. Later in Revelation we read: "Happy are those invited to the evening meal of the Lamb's marriage." This is the majestic victory banquet in praise of Jehovah after he has executed judgment on false religion-a banquet shared in by Christ and his completed bride of 144,000 in heaven. (Revelation 19:1-9) Responsive members of that ancient Laodicean congregation-yes, and faithful brothers of Christ Jesus today, who wear clean garments of identification as genuine anointed Christians-will feast with their Bridegroom at that evening meal. (Matthew 22:2-13) What a powerful inducement to be zealous and repent!
