Scroll 36 - The Lamb’s Wife
The Virgin Company, the Radiant Union, the Bride Transfigured by Fire
“Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” – Revelation 19:7
“Then I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” – Revelation 21:2
“For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy, for I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.” – 2 Corinthians 11:2
1. The Mystery of the Virgin Company
There is a people hidden within the folds of history who carry the scent of eternity upon them, a virgin company undefiled by mixture. They are not defined by gender or generation but by nature. Virginity in this scroll is not of body but of essence, a soul untainted by the adulterous pull of Babylon. They are the ones who have kept their garments unspotted by the systems of religion and ambition, their flame unmingled with the smoke of performance.
This company walks with a purity born not of striving but of surrender. They have learned the way of the Lamb, meekness, silence, and surrender. They do not seduce creation into admiration; they invite creation into remembrance. They are called the Lamb’s Wife because they mirror His nature flawlessly. In them, the Lamb has found a reflection without distortion.
The virgin company is not famous; it is faithful. Not seen, but sealed. Their devotion is not public but inward, a perpetual yes to the flame. They have no agenda but union, no ambition but love, no throne but the Lamb Himself.
2. Purity Through Fire
The Bride is not made ready through ceremony but through combustion. She is purified in the furnace of devotion where every trace of ego burns away. Her preparation is not outward adornment but inward alignment. Fire becomes her dressmaker, love her tailor. She is clothed not in fabric but in flame.
Purity is not the absence of temptation but the presence of holy fire that consumes every counterfeit affection. The Lamb’s Wife has passed through many deaths, death to control, death to image, death to reputation, until only flame remains. She stands transparent before heaven, without pretense, without self-defense, radiant with unveiled light.
This fire does not destroy her; it defines her. She becomes what she beholds. The Lamb’s nature fuses with her own until the two are indistinguishable. She no longer says, “He and I,” but “We are one.”
3. The Adornment of Radiance
The world adorns itself with jewels of flesh and crowns of vanity, but the Lamb’s Wife adorns herself with light. Her beauty is not applied; it emanates. She wears the radiance of revelation, the fragrance of union, the silence of one who knows she is known. The Lamb is her covering; His fire is her ornament.
When she walks, creation responds, for she carries the harmony of heaven. Every step releases the sound of restoration, every word heals the fracture of time. Her adornment is not external sparkle but internal substance, the holy weight of divine nature resting upon her like bridal glory.
This is the bride who does not seek the gaze of men. She has already been seen by the Lamb, and that seeing is enough. Her reflection is His reflection; her beauty is His own essence mirrored through transparency.
4. The Covenant of Blood and Flame
The marriage of the Lamb is not a ritual but a covenant sealed in blood and fire. It began at the cross and continues in the hearts of those who drink the cup. The covenant declares: “You are Mine, and I am Yours.” It is not a human partnership but a cosmic union, Spirit wedded to spirit, eternity kissing time.
This covenant cannot be broken, only ignored. Every son and daughter is invited to the marriage, yet only the yielded become the wife. For to be His wife is to share His wounds as well as His wonders, His cross as well as His crown. The flame of covenant burns away ownership until only belonging remains.
Through this covenant, the bride becomes co-heir of the throne. She does not serve at His feet; she reigns by His side. For the Lamb does not seek subjects, He desires a counterpart.
5. The Song of the Bride
There is a song rising in the spirit that no one else can learn, the song of the Lamb’s Wife. It is not sung with lips but with life. It is the melody of unbroken union, the harmony of heaven and earth reconciled in love. When she sings, creation remembers its origin; when she whispers, time bows.
The song is pure frequency, not performance. It bypasses intellect and touches eternity. It is sung by those who have lost themselves in flame and found themselves in Him. Every syllable carries revelation, every note reorders chaos.
This is the sound that shakes Babylon and awakens Zion. It is the anthem of the redeemed, the chorus of those who know no separation. The song of the bride is the sound of the Lamb’s heartbeat reverberating through human form.
6. The Bride as City
John saw her as a city, radiant and descending, because she is both bride and architecture. The Lamb’s Wife is not a single figure but a collective embodiment of divine union. She is the New Jerusalem, built of living stones, aligned by light. Her foundations are twelve revelations, her walls twelve frequencies, her gates twelve dimensions of glory.
In her, heaven and earth kiss. The eternal Word becomes visible form. She is not escaping the world; she is transforming it. The descent of the city is not an event but a revelation, the bride manifesting in time what she already is in eternity.
The Lamb dwells in her as the light of her being, and the nations walk in her illumination. She is both throne and temple, both dwelling and witness. Through her, God and creation finally speak one language again.
7. The Union That Governs All
The marriage of the Lamb is not merely intimacy, it is government. The union produces order, the love births law, and the bride becomes the administration of the Kingdom. She rules not through hierarchy but through harmony. Her authority flows from affection, her legislation from love.
The Lamb’s Wife is the axis of the new creation. In her, heaven governs earth not by decree but by resonance. Every law of light flows through her being. She is the interface between realms, the bridge between what was and what will forever be.
This is the mystery hidden since the foundation of the world: that the eternal God would marry His creation, that the invisible would find expression in the visible. The Lamb’s Wife is that fulfillment, union made flesh.
Final Charge to the Elect
Beloved, hear the call of the bridegroom. The invitation has gone out: “Come, for the marriage of the Lamb has come.” Let your garments be made ready in flame. Let your heart be washed in the blood and your mind renewed in light. You are not waiting for the wedding, you are becoming it.
Let the old garments of performance fall away. You are not merely called to attend the feast but to be the feast, to become the embodiment of communion. The Lamb’s love has not called you to serve His throne but to share it.
Walk in radiant surrender. Speak as one beloved. Let every breath say, “I am His, and He is mine.” For the Spirit and the Bride now speak as one voice: “Come.”
