Victorious
Singers. Next
the apostle sees the men and women who had refused to worship
the Antichrist (the beast) and would not accept the mark of 666.
| |
And
I saw, as it were, a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those
who had come off victorious from the beast and from his image
and from the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass,
holding harps of God. (NASB) Rev. 15:2 |
These
men and women were standing on the sea of glass and they are ready
to sing.
| |
And
they sang the song of Moses the bond-servant of God and the
song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and marvelous are
Thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty; Righteous and true are
Thy ways, Thou King of the nations. Who will not fear, O
Lord, and glorify Thy name? For Thou alone art holy; for
ALL THE NATIONS WILL COME AND WORSHIP BEFORE THEE, for Thy
righteous acts have been revealed.” (NASB) Rev. 15:3-4 |
What
a wonderful song of praise to both our Father and to Jesus Christ.
They describe God as being holy, all powerful, and true. Yet men
and women will reject God because they like their sin. They prefer
evil and wickedness. That is happening around the world. But God
is true. He knows the difference between sin and holiness. When God
comes for judgment, the world will know why and they will be powerless
to stop Him! Praise the Lord.
Having
A Great Time. The
party is on. The saints who died because they refused to bow to the Antichrist
and take his number are celebrating and rejoicing. Did you notice their repeated
statements that God is holy and righteous? They will do this because they will
have experienced the world’s evil.
Today
the forces of evil are slowly sweeping over our world. True holiness and righteousness
have been rejected in favor of man’s view of morality. Each home does what
is right in its own eyes. The church is not far behind. Today some mold the meaning
of the Bible to fit their personal view. The world is rejecting God. The tribulation
saints will experience how bad it can get when the world forces are allowed to
do as they want. That is why they will praise God for being holy when He prepares
to destroy evil.
Then
the temple which is in heaven will open and seven angels who had the seven plagues
will appear. |
