Listen to the illustration of the sower. When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand, the evil one takes away that which was sown in his heart. This is what was sown by the roadside.
Then he asked: Do you not understand this illustration? How will you understand any of the illustrations? The sower sows the word. These are they by the wayside where the word is sown. When they have heard; Satan comes and takes away the word that has been sown in them.
Now the illustration is this: The seed is the word of God. Those by the side of the road are they who have heard. Then the devil comes and takes the word from their hearts that they may not believe and be saved.

His tail swept a third of the stars of heaven, and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered. He was ready to devour her child as soon as it was born. She gave birth to a male-child, who was to rule all nations with a rod (scepter) of iron. Her child was caught up to God and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God. There they feed her a thousand two hundred and sixty days. War broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon and his angels. The dragon lost and no place in heaven was found for him any longer. The great dragon was thrown down, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was hurled down to the earth, and his angels with him. I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now has come the salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power (authority) of his Christ: for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accused them before our God day and night. They conquered (overcame) him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they did not love their lives when faced with death. Therefore rejoice (be glad), you heavens, and you that dwell in them. But woe to the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having fierce anger, because he knows that he has only a short time. When the dragon saw that he was thrown to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male-child. Two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time (one thousand two hundred and sixty days), out of the serpent's reach. The serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. But the earth rescued the woman, and the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed up the flood that the dragon spewed out of his mouth. The dragon was furious with the woman and waged war with the remnant of her seed. These are the ones who obey the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

I saw an angel come down from heaven. He had the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He seized the dragon, the old serpent that is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He hurled him into the bottomless pit, and shut it and sealed it over him. He could not deceive the nations anymore till the thousand years ended. After that he must be let loose for a little while.

He will destroy excessively (cause great devistation) and will prosper and do anything he wants to do. He will destroy the mighty ones and the holy people. Through his policy he will cause deceit to prosper in his hand. He will boast about himself in his heart. In their security they will destroy many. He will even stand up against the prince of princes; but he will be destroyed without human power. The vision told about the evenings and mornings is true: but seal up the vision. It belongs to the future.

Through his policy he will cause deceit to prosper in his hand. He will boast about himself in his heart. In their security they will destroy many. He will even stand up against the prince of princes; but he will be destroyed without human power. The vision told about the evenings and mornings is true: but seal up the vision. It belongs to the future.
There was given me a reed like a measuring rod: and the angel stood, saying: Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and those who worship there. Do not measure the court outside the temple for it is given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months. I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth. read more.
These (witnesses) are the two olive trees, and the two lamp stands standing before the God of the earth. If any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and devours their enemies. If any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These (two witnesses) have power to shut the sky so that it will not rain in the days of their prophecy. They have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. When they finished their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit will make war against them and conquer them, and kill them.

The dragon stood on the shore by the sea. I saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns. His horns had ten crowns on them. Blasphemous names were on his heads. The beast I saw looked like a leopard. His feet were like the feet of a bear. His mouth was like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power, his throne, and great authority. One of his heads appeared to have had a fatal wound. His fatal wound had healed, and the entire world followed the beast with admiration. read more.
Men worshiped the dragon that gave power to the beast. They worshiped the beast, saying: Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him? A mouth speaking great things and blasphemies was given to the beast. And authority to act was given to him to continue forty-two months. He opened his mouth to blaspheme God, to slander his name, and his dwelling place, and those who live in heaven. It was granted to him to wage war with the holy ones, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all tribes, and tongues, and nations.

I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse; and he who sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns (diadems). He had a name written that no man knew, but himself. He was clothed with a garment dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. read more.
The armies in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with a rod of iron. He treads the winepress of the fierceness and anger of Almighty God. He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Then I saw an angel standing in the sun. He cried with a loud voice to all the fowls that fly in midheaven: Come and gather yourselves together to the supper of the great God; that you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of military commanders, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great. I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him who sat on the horse, and against his army.
