They will fool many through false hood and deception. Those who are fooled will be led straight down the road that leads to hell.

If our true faith and trust is in Jesus Christ, He always makes provision for His people. The "battle belongs to the Lord." He will always take care of us. Even if we die for our faith, the reward is greater than our life here on the earth.

They are true to the testimony of Jesus Christ. They are resurrected by the Breath of God and ascend to heaven.

The terrible suffering and destruction is bitter as the unbelievers still do not accept the Lord. The protection of God's people and promises of what is coming is sweet.

These people just want to worship the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They are from the church. They worship and serve Him day and night. We once were lost, but now we are found by God and have been given eternal life once we believe in Him. Alleluia!!!!

God is ultimately and always in control. The seal saved them from physical death.

Those who were martyred are under the altar. They are being taken care of by God. They were killed for maintaining their testimony and for their faithfulness. They want vengeance for the spilling of their righteous faithful blood. The white robe represents their purchase by Christ's blood. Others were going to be martyred, and at a later time God would avenge their deaths.

Jesus, as the Lamb, initiates this great storm of destruction. It is directed toward mankind who have denied the Lord Jesus. Some who have remained faithful are martyred. It may seem unfair, but God is always just.

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit operate as One. One is not more important than the other. They are three in one in perfect harmony. They wish to operate in perfect harmony in our lives, too, if we allow them.

We will reign with Christ, and we will carry out the Lord's instructions. As priests we will worship, praise, and offer prayers before Him. We will be His kingdom.

Jesus completed history through His death and resurrection. He made a way for God's creation to be saved and be assured of eternal life, once they believe in Him. After He did this, that completed the plan that must be done for mankind. Because of His selfless act for the redemption of men, this made Christ worthy to open the scroll.

Continual Worship Bow Down Sing in a loud voice Fall Before Him Lay crowns before Him Use instruments and incense (prayers of the saint) Sing new songs We can't worship too much. Music is a wonderful introduction to worship and helps in worship. We need to be totally focused on the Lord. Each day as we receive compliments or praise from others, we need to offer it up before the Lord so that we do not become ego-inflated and think that what we do is of ourselves. All that we are and all that we ever hope to be is from the Lord. We can never praise Him too much for His gift of giving His life so that we might have eternal life. He is worthy of all our praise, adoration, and worship.

Behold the Lamb Holy, Holy, Holy To Him Who Sits on the Throne Worthy, He is Worthy

The churches are criticized for: abandoning their first love, following other teachings, tolerating spirits of enticement and sexual immorality, eating food sacrificed to idols, not completing their deeds in the sight of God, for being luke warm, that is, wretched, blind, poor and naked. The churches are praised for: Patient endurance, toil, sound doctrines, hating the Nicolaitans, having affliction and poverty, yet realizing they are rich, remaining true to His name, deeds, love and faith, perseverance, doing more, keeping His Word and not denying His Name, and enduring patiently. These all should be used on a daily basis to shape the church and the individual, that is, using the criticism to make us better and showing us what to guard against. All the praise should be used to show us what we need to continue doing. The most important thing is not to abandon our first love, that is Jesus Christ. If we are close to him, continually persuing and increasing our relationship with Him, praying for guidance and studying His Word, then the other things should fall into place. We need to keep all these things in mind and check ourselves often to be sure we are remaining faithful to His Word and direction.
