This
recipe is the fifteenth in a 21-week series, The Feast of the Ages,
developed to share our faith with our readers, realizing that as much as
we love food, our faith is an even more important and bigger part of our lives. We thought it would be fun to bring the two together.
Revelation 19:9, the Bible says, “Blessed are those who are invited to
the wedding supper of the Lamb!†The Bible refers to the church, or
the Christian body of believers, as the “bride of Christ.†The wedding
supper, or feast, represents a time of great celebration when Jesus is united with the church in heaven.
would be comfortable and very inviting. People would want to be there
because each person would be accepted for who he/she is. Each person
would be made to feel special and everyone would feel included and a
part of the activities. The fellowship and interactions between people would be real. The food
would have the freshest ingredients and the flavors would be perfect.
There would be no concern about the effects of pesticides or chemicals
used in the growing process of the food. There would be something for everyone,
and the individual taste preferences of every guest would be completely
satisfied. This is what we would anticipate the wedding supper of the
Lamb to be like.
most formal of feasts includes 21 courses. When we thought about what
the Wedding Feast of the Lamb might look like, a celebration for the
King of Kings and Lord of Lords, we thought it could definitely involve
21courses! We thought it would be fun to provide a sample 21-course
“Feast of the Ages†menu, with a different recipe a week over 21
consecutive weeks.
We offer creme filled pastry for the 15th course:
- 15 small pre-made, frozen Filo dough shells
- 5 ounces spreadable Brie cheese
- 12 ounces cream cheese
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- fresh raspberries
- fresh blueberries
- Place cream cheese, Brie, and brown sugar in medium bowl and mix with a standing mixer or handheld mixer on medium speed until combined and creamy.
- While mixing cheese, remove Filo shells from freezer and let stand at room temperature for approximately 10 minutes.
- Rinse berries with cold water and shake off any excess liquid.
- Assembly: Using a small knife, fill each shell with approximately 1 heaping tablespoon of cheese mixture. Top with a berry of your choice. (Note: You will have extra creamed cheese left over. This can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and can be eaten on bagels, crackers or fruit.)
you know you have been invited to attend the real “Feast of the Ages,â€
the Wedding Feast of the Lamb? Revelation 22:17 says, “Whoever is
thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of
the water of life.â€
