Didja ever wonder what sort of utensils will be used at the Marriage Feast of the Lamb in Heaven? I got thinkin' about this highly important question after my comment last night that our Hong Kong King Buffet soiree was "a little slice of heaven" for the seven Grey Haveners attending.
Will there be gold plated cutlery reminiscent of the fancy-ware described in the passages referring to the Tabernacle and/or Temple? Will there be chopsticks for all the Asian brothers and sisters? Will we get to simply skarf up the perfect food with our fingers like many African and Indian friends have allowed me to eat when they've shared meals with me? Will we have to twirl spaghetti on a fork or can we cut it for rapid consumption like we Barbarians do even when served at an Italian Restaurant?
Will it be an all-you-can-eat-serve-yourself buffet or a sit-down-family style where we pass dishes around to engender fellowship? Will we simply "speak into being" WHATEVER we want to eat in a sorta-ex-nihilo style?
Just so's ya knows...look for me in the finger-food-kimchee-pizza and beer-with butter cake dessert section that'll be having some good maduro cigars after the meal! Maybe we'll cut up a mango or two, too!
Got sharp knife?
