It is almost useless reading this if you haven't gone through THE TRUE STORY OF LIFE BASED ON REASONING first because all symbols used in the book of revelation are interpreted in the story. things like: 7, double sides/two edges, lamb, beast, dragon, sea, earth, 7 heads, 10 horns, sun, moon, star, Micheal etc. you wouldn't expect me to start afresh. I am going straight to the point now.
Wait! you are missing something! Click here to read the true story of life based on reasoning!
After the death of the Christ, he sent his holy spirit to impact knowledgeable about the truth because the great enemy has finally been defeated and the enemy's secrecy defied! the book of revelation is trying to tell us whom this enemy is, the enemy's secrecy, the defiance of this secrecy, the freedom achieved for mankind as a result of the defiance of this secrecy, how the enemy was defeated, the people that fought to defeat this enemy and the fate of the enemy after her defeat.
YOU DON'T KNOW, DO YOU?
Rev 14
The Lamb and the 144,000
1 Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on
Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written
on their foreheads.
2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters
and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists
playing their harps.
3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four
living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000
who had been redeemed from the earth.
4 These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for
they remained virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were
purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.
5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.
The Three Angels
6 Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal
gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe,
language and people.
7 He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because
the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth,
the sea and the springs of water.”
8 A second angel followed and said, ‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the
Great,’ which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries.”
9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone
worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on
their hand,
10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been
poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with
burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.
11 And the smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever.
There will be no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and its
image, or for anyone who receives the mark of its name.”
12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of
God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are
the dead who die in the Lord from now on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will
rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.”
Harvesting the Earth and Trampling the Winepress
14 I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on
the cloud was one like a son of man with a crown of gold on his head and a
sharp sickle in his hand.
15 Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud
voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take your sickle and reap, because
the time to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.”
16 So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the
earth, and the earth was harvested.
17 Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a
sharp sickle.
18 Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the
altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, “Take your
sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because
its grapes are ripe.”
19 The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and
threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath.
20 They were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood
flowed out of the press, rising as high as the horses’ bridles for a distance
of 1,600 stadia.
Interpretation
1 “Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on
Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written
on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a sound from heaven like the roar of rushing waters
and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists
playing their harps. 3 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four
living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000
who had been redeemed from the earth.
4 These are those who did not defile
themselves with women, for they remained virgins. They follow the Lamb wherever
he goes. They were purchased from among mankind and offered as firstfruits to
God and the Lamb. 5 No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.”
This is
the interpretation: It talks about the second destiny (second call) it has all
to do with the “direct twelve disciples” of Jesus and their offspring (Christians)
“These are
those who did not defy them selves with women” talks about the flesh (old
destiny) it says that they are priests in the sight of
God and they did not answer the first call (world/flesh/old destiny)
“They were purchased from among mankind
and offered as firstfruits to God and the Lamb.” This says that besides this
first set of saints(Christians), there are other good ones. It indirectly
counts in other religions and beliefs on earth which are not directly members
of Christianity.
“firstfruits” means that there are other
fruits, but these are the first to be considered.
6 “Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal
gospel to proclaim to those who live on the earth—to every nation, tribe,
language and people. 7 He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give him glory, because
the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth,
the sea and the springs of water.” 8
A second angel followed and said, “ ‘Fallen! Fallen is
Babylon the Great,’ which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her
adulteries.” 9 A third angel followed them and said in a loud voice: “If anyone
worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on
their hand, 10 they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has been
poured full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented with
burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb. 11 And the
smoke of their torment will rise for ever and ever. There will be no rest day
or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or for anyone who
receives the mark of its name.” 12 This calls for patient endurance on the part of the people of
God who keep his commands and remain faithful to Jesus. 13 Then I
heard a voice from heaven say, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the
Lord from now on.” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “they will rest from their labor,
for their deeds will follow them.”
This is
the interpretation. The verses condemn religious discrimination when it says:
“to every nation, tribe, language and people” we have many nations and tribes on earth and
most have different religion and belief.
Salvation belongs to all who are good, that is why the quotation says: “Fear God and give him glory….. Worship him who made the heavens,
the earth, the sea and the springs of water.”
It makes it clear that salvation goes to all religion that preaches good,
love and help for one another . Then
when “babylon” comes into these verses, it indirectly shows that the very
“great prostitute” has every thing to do with the problems our faith and belief
faces today. And I will say that Babylon is not in the occult world, it is the
problem in our religion and belief.
“A third angel followed them and said in
a loud voice: 'If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark
on their forehead or on their hand, 10
they, too, will drink the wine of God’s fury, which has
been poured in full strength into the cup of his wrath. They will be tormented
with burning sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and of the Lamb.”
This is the interpretation. What ever that brought these revelations is very smart. I told you whom the beast and its image are already. But merging religious problem, babylon and the beast (of rev 13) in one chapter reveals that they are related or they interpreted one person or a particular set of persons. The beast that comes out of the sea talks about spiritualism (belief) and the image of the beast talks about the flesh. The quotations bring out two conditions that seems to be contradictory to each other. It says, who so ever that abandons the new destiny (Christ/ belief) and worships the world (image of the beast) will be doomed. It also says who so ever that abandons his world (physical) and worships the beast that comes out of the sea (spiritual/belief) will be doomed. That’s very confusing. But giving a clear look, you will understand that the quotations are trying to spot the presence of something faulty which is hidden in our faith and which compromises our faith in God. Christ is not just in our religion and belief, Christ is in you, Christ is in me, Christ manifests in the physical world. The enemy is not just the world, the enemy is in our belief too. The traditional tale I earlier narrated about fear, anger and imagination says that the battle of the seven and HE was just to save me from invisibility and beliefs- this is that enemy! This tells us that the enemy deceives us by coming in the name of our faith. Through this means, the enemy brings in crises among the different beliefs scattered on the surface of the earth. Soon I will interpret the chapter that talks about Babylon.

14 ”I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on

were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood flowed out of the

interpretation: “cloud” as it is used here talks about “secret” and “harvest”
as it is used here talks about the salvation of the “righteous ones” the verses are saying that the identities of
those to be saved remains secret and unknown. The “cloud” there reveals that
those that will be saved may not be those people you think.
“Still another
angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud
voice to him who had the sharp sickle, 'Take your sharp sickle and gather the
clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.” 19 The
angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into
the great winepress of God’s wrath"
these verses also say that those people to be damned may not be those people you think.
