Jesus preformed his first miracle at a wedding by changing water into wine. John 2:1-11
There is no commandment concerning wedding ceremonies. However, the biblical pattern is that marriages always begin with some kind of ceremony or wedding, most notable would be that of Jesus Christ and his bride.
Revelation 19:7-9
7Let us rejoice and be glad
and give him glory!
For the wedding of the Lamb has come,
and his bride has made herself ready.
8 Fine linen, bright and clean,
was given her to wear.”
9 Then the angel said to me, “Write this: Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!” And he added, “These are the true words of God.”
How can we have a biblical pattern of a wedding feast that we must follow that hasn't happened yet per Revelation?
What is the mystery associated with Christ and his Church and our marriages?
When will this mystery be revealed?
In the example of Christ and his Church compared to man's marriages, which one is being compared to the other?
In what way is it being compared?
What are the traditional Christian wedding vows as stated in the Bible? How does the Bible tell us to perform this ceremony? Who does the Bible tell us should get married and why has this changed from the Old testament, New testament, and modern times?
