What if our viewpoint of what a train looks like is not the same as heaven ’ s ? In curiosity I looked up the word train and one of the first things to come up was , “ teach ( a person ) a particular skill or type of behavior through practice and instruction over a period of time .” And of course there is the obvious understanding too that a train carries lots of cars on the strength of the engine pulling it .
What if Christ ’ s train was us ? Meaning those he trained to look like him , to love like him , to act in mercy like him ? I look again at the train of many wedding dresses and their design is to bless the groom in the beauty of his bride . I think too about , “ there before me was a great multitude that no one could count , from every nation , tribe , people and language , standing before the throne and before the Lamb . They were wearing white robes …”
Every wedding dress I have ever seen was white . Imagine each of us standing in the temple wearing our white robes as his bride ? Can you see it ? Can you see yourself in His train ? * Isaiah 6:1 , Rev 7:9
