Purpose of the Bride

I want to quickly show what is the one of the purposes of the Bride in the millennium, Revelation 21:22-23.

²²And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. ²³And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

The city is New Jerusalem, New Jerusalem is the Bride.  In Revelation 21:23, what is the it?  The it is the Bride.

Revelation 21:24

²⁴And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.

They walk in the light of the Bride.  In the millennium, the nations will be saved through the Bride.  Nations are ethnos, heathens (G1484).  This is not believers today, Hebrews 2:11

¹¹For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Believers are brethren.  In the millennium, there will be new believers.  That is why it states in Isaiah 53:10.

¹⁰Yet it pleased Yehovah to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of Yehovah shall prosper in his hand.

After the marriage supper of the Lamb, when the Groom and the Bride come together, they will have spiritual children.  God has something great for all mankind in the millennium.  God declared in John 3:16:

¹⁶For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The most asked and least answered question in Christianity today what happens to those that have never heard the name of Yeshua, because this is the seed of the millennium.
