Then they will deliver you up to suffer affliction, and will put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written. The deliver will come from Zion, He will banish all ungodliness from Jacob;

You are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone.

You yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night.

Let no one deceive you by any means. For it will not come until after the Great Apostasy, and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the son of perdition, the adversary, who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God, or is an object of worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, and vaunts himself as God. read more. Do you not recall that I often told you this, when I was with you? And now you know what is holding him back, to the end that he may be revealed in his appointed time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only there is one who is hindering and will continue to hinder till he be removed; and then the lawless one will be revealed. Him the Lord will consume with the breath of his lips, and destroy with the brightness of his appearing; even he whose coming is according to the energy of Satan, in every power and sign and lying wonder, and with all deceit of unrighteousness for those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth for their salvation.

All things are pure to the pure; but to the contaminated and the faithless nothing is pure, nay, their very minds and consciences are tainted.

Fear not what you are about to suffer! Behold, the devil is indeed going to put some of you in prison, that you may be tested, and you will have persecution for ten days. Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.

And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they bore.

And there was given to each one of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for yet a little time, until the number should be completed by their fellow slaves and their brethren who were about to be put to death as they had been.

And when he opened the seventh seal, there followed a silence in heaven, about the space of half an hour.

and swore by him who lives forever and ever, who created the heaven and all that is in it, and the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it,

And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell; and there were killed in the earthquake seven thousand persons; and the rest were frightened and gave glory to the God of heaven. "The second woe is passed; and there is a third woe soon to follow." read more. And the seventh angel blew his trumpet; and there followed great voices in heaven, and they said, "THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD ARE BECOME THE KINGDOM OF OUR LORD AND OF HIS CHRIST, AND HE WILL REIGN FOREVER AND EVER." Then the four and twenty Elders who are seated before God on their thrones, fell upon their faces and worshiped God, saying. "We give thee thanks, O Lord God, The Almighty, who art and who wast; For thou hast taken thy great power, And begun to reign. The nations raged, and thy wrath came, And the time for the dead to be judged; The time for rewarding thy slaves, the prophets And the saints, and those who reverence thy name, Both small and great; And the time to destroy those who are destroying the earth."

The nations raged, and thy wrath came, And the time for the dead to be judged; The time for rewarding thy slaves, the prophets And the saints, and those who reverence thy name, Both small and great; And the time to destroy those who are destroying the earth." Then the temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen inside his sanctuary; and there followed lightnings and voices and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.

The beast was allowed to wage war upon the saints, and to conquer them; and there was given him authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation;

And I saw another beast ascending from the land; and he had two horns like a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon;

And he was permitted to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast should speak; and so that any one who would not worship the image of the beast should be put to death. And he makes all men, low and high, rich and poor, freemen and slaves, to have a brand put upon their right hands or upon their brows, read more. so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the brand of the beast, or the number of his name.

The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the bottomless pit, and to go into perdition. And those who dwell on the earth shall wonder, those whose names have never, from the foundation of the world, been written in the Lamb's Book of Life, when they gaze on the beast; how he was and is not, and is to come.

The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the bottomless pit, and to go into perdition.

And I saw heaven opened, and lo! a white horse; and he who sat upon him was named "Faithful and True"; and in righteousness does he judge and make war.

and flung him into the bottomless pit, and shut and sealed it over him, so that he should seduce the nations no more, until the thousand years were completed. After that it is necessary to loose him for a little while.

And there came to me one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the last plagues, and he spoke to me, saying. "Come hither! I will show you the bride, the Lamb's wife."

And he showed me the river of the Water of Life, clear as crystal, Flowing out from the throne of God, and of the Lamb, In the middle of the broad street of the City. On each side of the river was a Tree of Life, Bearing twelve kinds of fruit, Each month yielding its own fruit. And the leaves of the tree Were for the healing of the nations. read more. And there will be no more curse But in it will be the throne of God and of the Lamb. And his slaves will serve and worship him. They will see his face. His name will be on their foreheads. Night will be no more. They will need no lamplight nor sunlight, Because the Lord God will give them light; And they will reign forever and ever. Then he said to me. "These words may be trusted, and are true. the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his slaves what must soon take place. "And behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book." And I, John, am he who heard and saw these things. And after I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me. But he said to me. "See thou do it not. I am only a fellow slave with you and your brothers, the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this Book. "WORSHIP GOD!" And he said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book; for the crisis is near. He who is wicked, let him be wicked still; He who is filthy, let him be filthy still; He who is righteous, lit him practise righteousness still; And he who is holy, let him be made holy still. Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, To give to each man what his actions merit. I am the Alpha and the Omega, The First and the Last, The Beginning and the End. "Blessed are they who wash their robes, so that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in by the gates into the City. Without are the dogs, the sorcerers, the immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and all who live and make a lie. "I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright and morning Star. "And the Spirit and the Bride say 'Come!' And let him who hears, say 'Come!' And let him who thirsts, come; And whoever wills, let him take the Water of Life freely." I testify to every man who hears the words of the prophecy of this book. If any man shall add to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book; and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the Tree of Life, and in the Holy City, about which this book is written. He who testifies this says, "Yea, I am coming quickly." Amen! Come, Lord Jesus! The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with the saints!
