Revelation...Amplified to Simplicity...Part II
CHAPTERS 7-14
Jesus said:
Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels (Mark 8:38).
Please brothers & sisters, don't let this be your testimony to Father God. Now is the time to get fully dressed:
Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil (Ephesians 6:11).
If no other time than ever before ... Don't let God down. He loves us so much and wish to make our lives fearless. Many of his children today still (eat up) the deceits of the world, which causes Father God to feel as though they don't care anything about him. Make Jesus Christ your first love.
With that being said I will again quote the scriptures as God spoke them...then I will amplify it for you. So "let’s ask a word of wisdom from Father God in Jesus precious name".
Chapter 7
1: And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four comers of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
1a (John then saw the four angels standing on the eastern, western, northern, and
southern coastal of the earth. They were waiting for GOD to give the ok to release the four winds upon the earth. (The best example of the four winds is that which is in EZEKIEL CHAPTER 37, which is the spirit of GOD).
2: And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living GOD: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
2a (Another angel came up east from the sunset with the seal of GOD meaning:
(touch not my anointed) in his hand. This angel yelled to the four
angels of the winds)
3: Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our GOD in their foreheads.
3a (Saying to hold off from hurting the earth, seas, and trees until the servants of GOD had been sealed in their foreheads. In other words (Hold off until the children truly understand GOD word so they won't be tempted by deception.)
4: And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed a hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
4a (John could hear the number of servants protected with GOD seal. There were one hundred and forty- four thousand from the tribes of Israel. (The number 144 means spirit led or chosen people as in DEUTERONOMY 32-11 when it is related to GOD as the eagle when he spreads his wing over his children to protect them... known as his elects.)
5: Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand, Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
5a (From the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed , the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand . The tribe of Gad twelve thousand)
6: Of the tribe of A-ser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe
of Nep-tha-lim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Ma-nas-ses were sealed twelve thousand.
6a (From the tribe of A-ser twelve thousand Tribe of Nep-tha-lim twelve thousand
From the tribe of Ma-nas-sen twelve thousand.)
7: Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Is-sa- char were sealed twelve thousand.
7a (From the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand The tribe of Levi twelve thousand. The tribe of Is-sa-char twelve thousand)
8: Of the tribe of Zab-u-lon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
8a (From the tribe of Zab-u- Ion twelve thousand The tribe of Joseph twelve thousand. From the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand (Notice the tribe of Dan and E-phra-im is omitted from this list...It was because of idol worship but they are reinserted in EZEKIEL 48 and lets thank GOD for that.)
9: After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man
could number, of all nations, and kindred's, and people, and
tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed
with white robes, and palms in their hands;
9a (John then saw a great multitude which he could not number they all were at the throne of GOD wearing white robes (righteous acts). Palms in the hand mean they came out of captivity and accepted JESUS as the LAMB or the final day of tabernacle.
10: And cried with a loud voice, saying, SALVATION TO OUR GOD WHICH SITTETH UPON THE THRONE AND UNTO THE LAMB.
10a (They cried loud- salvation to our GOD and the LAMB, which sit upon the throne.)
11: And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped GOD,
11a (Then all the angels, elders, and four beasts began to worship the throne around GOD. (They bowed at his feet in love for GOD.) Okay now here is where we pick back up...When Jesus takes the book of life from God...
12: Saying, A-men: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might, be unto our GOD for ever and ever. A-men.
12a (They spoke saying A-men. Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might be unto GOD forever and ever A-men. (Seven things as in the fifth chapter but riches are replaced with thanksgiving because they have received their reward).
13: And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
13a (John was then asked by one of the elders: who are all these in white robes & where did they come from?)
14: And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
14a (John answered: do you know? The elder then explained these are the ones who came out of great tribulation and washed their sins away in the Lambs blood. (They have washed away their sins that they occurred in the flesh because the spirit is clean. Man will fall short in the flesh. Remember to repent daily).
15: Therefore are they before the throne of GOD, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
15a (They will forever serve around GOD throne day and night in his temple and he will be with them forever. (Father GOD shall be with us forever more at this time.) -
16: They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
16a (They shall never be hungry or thirst again. Neither shall the sun or heat bother them ever anymore.)
17: For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and GOD shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
17a (The Lamb will feed them forever and give them new water, living water. Then GOD shall take away all sadness from their eyes. (GOD will blot out all that do not belong and no tears will be shed anymore for the unsaved. It will seem as though they never existed).
CHAPTER 8
1: And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
1a (When the seventh seal was opened there came a great silence in heaven for thirty minuets. (This is the hour of temptation Satan will be among man here on earth).
2: And I saw the seven angels which stood before GOD; and to them were given seven trumpets.
2a (Then seven angels were given seven trumpets ready to blow. (The angels were standing before GOD getting instructions from GOD).
3: And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
3a (Another angel came and stood at the golden altar of GOD. He had a golden censer (incense holder) and many incense given to him, to offer as gifts along with the saints prayers. ( incense smoke are essence of our prayers going up to GOD).
4: And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before GOD out of the angels hand.
4a (Then the angel offered all of the saints prayers to GOD burning the much incense given as gifts. (Our prayers are helped by the angels and heard by GOD).
5: And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thundering, and lightings, and an earthquake.
5a (After which the angel filled the holder with fire (now remember GOD is a consuming fire Deuteronomy 4 / 24) from the altar and released it on the earth. Thunder and lighting along with earthquakes were seen all over the earth. (This is the beginning of the answers to prayers which are the labor pains.)
6: And the seven angel which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
6a (Meanwhile the seven angels were preparing to blow the seven trumpets. (Action, lights, get ready the show is about to begin).
7: The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
7a (When the first angel blew hail and fire mingled (mixed) with blood was spread to the earth which burned a third of the trees and all green grass. Just like the fires we fight today, many of God children shed blood. (The hand of GOD will be upon the earth he will be making his appearance at this time. Zechariah chapter 1 explains the 4 carpenters. )
8: And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
8a (When the second angel sounded a fireball the size of a burning mountain turned a third of the sea into blood. (The waters always represent the people and the blood in their bodies' GOD truth will be on them. Let the burning hand of our father be on us. Now two...which is the second trumpet, means the father and the son}.
9: And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
9a (Then a third part of the sea world was destroyed along with a third of ships in the sea. (Ships represent commercialism, which is one of the four hidden dynasties such as education, political, economy, and religion. All of these are in one body and again the body of water represents the people.)
10: And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of water;
10a (After the third angel blew a third part of the rivers and fountains of waters were
destroyed with a burning star from heaven. (The lamp is the light that is suppose to bring truth and brightness, but it is the false lamp you can read about this as CHRIST explains in Luke chapter 10- 18 and Isaiah chapter 14 as he speak of the fake light. Satan).
11: And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
11a (This star is called Wormwood (this was called wormwood, which mean bitterness, which explains why this light is not our father s light. The true light is at the second trumpet GOD light always comes before Satan light). A third part of this water turned to Wormwood and destroyed many people that drank of it (these could not see the truth and took in the bitter water and their spirit died. Being mislead, deceived, and controlled through the four dynasty's.)
12: And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
12a (When the fourth angel sounded a third part of the sun, moon and stars were
darkened. Daylight lost a third of its brightness and nighttime lost a third of its darkness. (This to is a sign from GOD when the darkness comes. Yes. We are the children of light not the children of darkness they are Satan seeds. Remember to watch and pray always).
13: And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
13a (Then John looked and saw an angel (the manuscripts say eagle instead of angel circling warning the children of GOD of the great danger about to approach. This eagle is spoken of in Deuteronomy chapter 32-11 in the song of Moses. Meaning our fathers wings are over us protecting his children from the deception which is about to be placed on the earth. ) Circling around heaven shouting: Woe, Woe, Woe beware all people on the earth. Get ready for the next three angels to sound their trumpets. (Please. Always pay close attention to the Woes.)
Chapter 9
1: And the fifth angel sounded and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.
1a (After the fifth angel sounded his horn (remember this is a woe trump) ... And a star fell from heaven; (CHRIST said in Luke chapter 10-18 I beheld Satan as a star fall from heaven this is it) ... holding the key to the bottomless pit: (abyss-where souls will be destroyed also a holding place for Satan demons or evil spirits). Remember to always recognize Satan method of operation wanting to be GOD.)
2: And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit,
2a (Satan then opened the pit (to turn the demons loose). Smoke arose like a burning furnace then darkness (keep in mind this is a sign from GOD ... darkness is always of Satan) smoke covered the Earth Day & Night ... Just as it did with the 2017 Eclipse.)
3: And there carne out of the smoke locusts upon the earth; and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
3a (Also locusts (Satan camp ... Only men full of deception) appeared on earth with wealth (power) as the scorpions of the earth have power today. (Think about it ... Scorpions are small, but man stay clear of them, they're deadly. This is why this is a woe. Satan's deception will be all over man at this time.)
4: And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of GOD in their foreheads.
4a (GOD warned them that they could not touch the greenery of the earth (this let's you know they were not regular locust insects which only eat the green plant. This is another Sign from our father) nor could they touch his anointed saints who knew him and his plan. Only temp the ones who claim to want nothing to do with GOD (Joel chapter 2-25 as you will see ... GOD allows this army. Its part of his plan. Just like in the beginning when he harden Pharaoh heart, the reward will be so great in the end). Father God assure us that he will be in the midst of this and we will not be ashamed. This is the same prophecy that Joel spoke of on Pentecostal day Acts chapter 2-16. Read Mark 13-6 also as CHRIST explains how Satan at this time would try to convince all that he is the LORD.)
5: And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he streiketh a man.
5a (GOD commanded Satan's army that they had no power to destroy any of his children. However, they had only five months to entice them into loving their leader. They would be tormented as the torment of a scorpion when he has struck. (Let me explain this ... GOD shorten this period from a three in a half year period to five months for the elects sake Mark 13/20. This is another sign from GOD. As he says it will be the time of the locust, which is from May-September. Now let us discuss the scorpion when it has struck. First, the scorpion has no stomach. When it strikes it turns the organs into mush. After which it will suck the organs from the body ... giving example of how Satan will pull man in with his so-called love. Then, suck your soul from you. However, don't forget GOD warned him he could not kill any of the unlearned. Only cause them to love him so much until they turn to mush.)
6: And in those days shall men seek death and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
6a (During this time many would rather die than choose, (they will be ashamed because they really loved our father, but did not take the time to read the letter he left us, his word. This is what JESUS warned us of in Mark chapter 13-17 when he said woe to those who are with child and to them that give suck in those days. Keep in mind GOD says in that great book of Joel my sons and daughters will not be ashamed. Will you be ashamed?) Yet man will have to face reality not religion for it will do them no good. (Remember GOD is reality not religion ... No more I don't believe for an excuse. Many will know they have been deceived many that truly loved CHRIST).
7: And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
7a (Each locust was shaped like a soldier on a horse, going to battle (in other words coming with full power). They wore crowns on their heads like gold (claiming to be royalty, but it is like gold because it is not gold it is fake). Keep in mind ... they were only men (deceived men chosen by Satan).
8: And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
8a (The soldiers had beautiful hair and looked gentle as women, but their teeth were as mean as lions. (Please look at the digression our father uses trying to warn us. Explaining the luring in of women, but showing how the lion takes his teeth and bite into his victims neck. Then, shake and shake· until it gives in to him. (this is also quoted in the book of Joel chapter 1-6).
9: And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
9a (They had chest of iron (looking very religious as if they wore a priest breastplate, but it was made of iron which means hard and unfriendly) and their vehicles had many horsepower's (in other words nice transportation prepared to take on any task) .
10: And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.
10a (They carried poison in their spirits only trying to encourage the unlearned to join their organization. Explaining how they could live as they do. Initiating for only five months. (Again the five-month period is emphasized from May-September the life of the locust or you may say from Passover to the end of Tabernacle. (CHRIST would say in Mark chapter 13-20 for the elects sake he shorten the days else no flesh would be saved. Can you now see why we have to understand Revelation? Deception will be so strong in the world.)
11: And they had a king over them which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name is the Hebrew tongue is A-bad-don, but in the Greek tongue hath his name A-pol-Iy-on.
11a (They had a king over the bottomless pit, which is Satan. Whose name in the
Hebrew is A -bad-don (meaning a destroying angel) but in the Greek he is called A -pol-Iy-on (meaning a destroyer that is Satan.)
12: One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more here after.
12a (The first woe have passed but remember you got two more. (Ready for them? GOD children are.)
13: And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before GOD,
13a (When the sixth angel sounded ... there was a voice, which came from the four horns (each corner of GODS thrown, his power). Now remember who comes on the sixth trumpet, sixth vial, and sixth seal? Satan. Stay sharp now. Listen close.)
14: Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great Euphrates.
14a (Do the Euphrates mean anything to you? This is the boundary where Satan beguiled Eve spiritually separating the children of GOD from the children of Satan. Let me document from the new testament as Paul warns the Corinthians of the coming of Satan, how he beguiled (meaning holy seduced) Eve and for us to stay as virgins until CHRIST returns, 2nd Corinthians chapter 11-1.} GOD had just released the fallen angels that were bound at the Euphrates. Father God would not bound good angels. Think.)
15: And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
15a (Then the four angels were released and prepared for one year, one month, and one hour to slay the third part of men that followed Satan when he fell. (Keep in mind CHRIST said they could not kill their flesh so they will be seducing the spirit of man no genders specified men and women).
16: And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
16a (The number of angles ready for battle was two hundred thousand, thousand. (At this time Satan will have power over the whole world, but the children with the seal of GOD in their forehead, the ones who have uncovered our father's beautiful Revelation. GOD said touch not my anointed.)
17: And thus I saw the horses in the vision and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
17a (The horses in the vision John saw had breast shields of fire (open hearts) and Jacinth (blue color) with brimstone (raging red and orange) chest. Their faces were as lions (still trying to deceive many as if they were from the lion tribe, which is the tribe of David. Yet, not containing father's fire ... that consuming fire a fire of peace.) GOD is the author of peace not confusion 1st Corinthians 14-33).
18: By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
18a (Three leaders of this army killed a third part of men with fire, smoke, and by brimstone from their mouth. (Does this tell you something? Fire, smoke and brimstone do not come from our fathers mouth. GOD can perform a miracle with one touch or word. This means Satan will be deceiving, lying, and showing great wonders enticing all Mark 13 says, even the elect if it were possible.)
19: For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
19a (See their power is in the tongue they don't have truth, their tails are of their father. Satan, the snake rather than serpent's tail. They will be head over many things even our churches (2nd Corinthians chapter 11 verse 14-15 study GOD word) for their venom it will kill.)
20: And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
20a (The men, remaining are whom they were sent to tempt; the ones that did not die by being tricked or deceived out of their lives. The ones whom didn't repent of wrongdoings or who fell for Satan's temptation by worshiping wickedness, gold, silver, brass, etc. (Those who stayed blind worshiping the system. Christ is only to be worshiped)
21: Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornications nor of their thefts.
21a (Neither did they repent for murders, drug pushing, fornication and stealing. (They murdered spirits by leading GOD children to Satan. Giving illusions as to how drugs taint the mind Introducing false gods that don't exist causing many to fornicate, and stealing the love of our father the true GOD from his children's heart.)
Chapter 10
1: And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
1a (Then another angel came down from heaven in the clouds, with a rainbow up over his head. His face was as bright as sunshine. His feet look like burning fire. (There should be no doubt that this is the' angel of the LORD. The sun represents the glory of our father. His rainbow from his angel is an overshadowing that brings the warmth from GOD.)
2: And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,
2a (In his hand was a little open book. The angel stood one feet on the seashore and the other in the sea. (Remember the waters are the people as it will soon be identified and the seashore is the earth.)
3: And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
3a (He cried from deep within, when he cried seven loud thunders hit. (Keep in mind that GOD uses symbolism for a reason. We all know how man reacts to thunder.)
4: And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices. I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not,
4a (After the thunder stopped, John was about to write what he heard. Then, a voice from high told him not to write about the thunder. Why did our father tell John not to write about the thunder? What perceives thunder? Lighting-Luke chapter 10-18. In other words, if you ignored the lighting and heard the thunder ... Apparently you did not make it. After the thunder starts, it will be too late for salvation.)
5: And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
5a (Then the angel standing at the seashore gave a signal with his hand toward the sky.)
6: And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
6a(Giving surety in GOD name that it was no longer any need to hold back. (In other words when the seventh trumpet sounds ... everything's over. It is now time to move into another dispensation.) Don't forget. Father God returns at the seven seal, seven trump, and seven vial..
7: But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of GOD should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
7a (One thing is sure ... When the seventh angel blows his trumpet, GOD will no longer be a mystery anymore. Exactly as the prophets declared it. (Those prophets in his word Moses, Mark, Isaiah, Daniel, etc.).
8: And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
8a (Then a voice came from up high again saying: take the little open book from the angel at the seashore. (Did the angel force the book on John? No. GOD said you go get it. That same book that sit on the shelf or table that never get opened. That book we store our departed love ones in or whatever we use it for you know ... the Bible. GOD said you get it and still today he says it. Just seek and you will find.)
9: And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book, And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.
9a (John then went to the angel and asked for the little book. The angel told John to take the book and eat it assuring him his belly would be bitter or better.">bitter ... However, going down it would taste as sweet as honey. (Even when John approached the angel and asked for the book the angel told John No ... You must take it from me. Remember we have to come willing to GOD he will never force himself upon us).
10: And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
10a (John did as the angel commanded; and the book did taste as honey, but John felt a bit sick to his stomach. (Why is it sweet going down, but bitter or better.">bitter in our stomachs? When you unfold the mystery of GOD it's beautiful knowing we have a chance and how much our father loves us. Yet, when you present it ... many will persecute & talk against you. Just as it was done to JESUS. With most beliefs in traditional doctrine this hurt GOD elects. Man cannot put new wine into old wine-skins Matthew chapter 9-17. Don't forget ... Many are called, but few are chosen Matthew chapter 22 verse 14.) However, if you have to take a little bitterness don't worry it's good for you. Plant the seed and our father will cause it to grow if it is his will. Even so ... Never ever become second class citizens compromising on GOD word. When it is revealed to you that Satan comes first ... You are one of GOD elects.)
11: And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
11a (Then the angel said: keep what you've learned in your heart and mind then preach this too many people. In all the nations of many tongues. (John was told to take this truth and preach it to all the races, in all the languages over the face of the land Acts chapter 2).
Chapter 11
1: And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of GOD, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
1a (John was then given a reed (which is a stick or long rod used for cleansing or destruction in the Greek. Lamentations 2:7) then told to measure the church, altar, and all the congregations that worshiped GOD.)
2: But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
2a (He was told not to measure any streets or areas which did not have a church on it. John was informed that the whole city would be holy for forty-two months Keep in mind. (Moons and months are always prophecies of Satan, but days are pertaining to GOD. )
3: And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days clothed in sackcloth.
3a (GOD explained he would give two witnesses power and they would preach to the unlearned on the streets for 1203 days (solar is days so our father is speaking to the children of the light. Now Christians in sackcloth represent mourning).
4: These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the GOD of the earth.
4a (These witnesses are the two olive trees (which will represent JESUS & GOD also the two churches they are pleased with Smyrna & Philadelphia. (GOD told us what the candlesticks meant in Revelation chapter 1:20. So if they represent the churches where are the other five? Worshiping the anti-Christ of course. They had not been taught the Kenites ... So, they did not recognize them. If your church is not teaching Revelation 2:9 or Revelation 3:9 &10, you are being mislead Zechariah 4:11-14)
5: And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
5a (If any man try to harm them GOD word would protect them. If anyone tries to murder them, they will be destroyed. This is the fire that was spoken of in 2nd Kings 1:10. Remember GOD allowed Satan to temp man on earth at this time. However, he made it clear ... Do not take any lives.
6: These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
6a (In JESUS they have power to get GOD attention at any time. It will not rain on the streets why they prophesy. They can do the same miracles as Moses had the power of GOD to achieve. Turning the waters (meaning people) back to the blood (JESUS death on the cross for our sins ... which is the blood to turn back to).
7: And when they shall have finished their testimony the beast that ascended out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them and kill them.
7a (When they (two .. witnesses) have preached to all the nations the beast, which is (Satan-Revelation 17:8. We'll cover this in more detail as we reach that chapter. Yet, this will help you stay in tune with what's going on at this point. There is a very good movie I recommend called "The Omega Code". It perceives the two witnesses very well) the Anti-Christ will make war against them and kill their flesh. (GOD said touch not my anointed).
8: And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our LORD was crucified.
8a (These two witness, their bodies will lie in the streets (meaning an arena in the Greek) of Egypt spiritually known as Sodom exactly where JESUS was crucified.)
9: And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
9a (Everyone will see their bodies laid down in the streets yet will not try to bury them. (Why? It is obvious, many believe they are fakes. They will be left in the street to prove to everyone that they will not resurrect as JESUS had done).
10: And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
10a (The unlearned will be celebrating and hosting parties in honor of their departure.)
11: And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from GOD entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
11a (After three in a half days, GOD will bring life back into their bodies & they will rise to their feet. Everyone that sees them will be afraid. (We don't know the instant GOD will return, but he did give us signs and seasons. We will know the hour. GOD said he would return three in a half days after this event. WATCH & PRAY.)
12: And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
12a (All shall hear a great voice say: come up here, they will then float up into the sky. (They will be the only ones ascending into the heavens. No others will drift into the clouds.)
13: And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the GOD of heaven.
13a (At that same hour (meaning hour of temptation) an earthquake will hit, and a tenth parts of the city will).">shall be destroyed. (Do you know what causes this earthquake? Zechariah chapter 14 when GOD feet touch the earth.) This earthquake will kill seven thousand ungodly men. (These seven thousand are the ones we read about in the first six chapters of Jude the (fallen angels.) The remnant will become frighten, but will glorify GOD.)
14: The second woe is past; and behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
14a (The second woe the angel warned about has passed and now the third woe comes next.)
15: And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD ARE BECOME THE KINGDOMS OF OUR LORD, AND OF HIS CHRIST; AND HE SHALL REIGN FOR EVER AND EVER.
15a (The seventh angel sounded (praise GOD this is when we gather back to CHRIST) and a loud voice came from the sky saying: the king and his dominion of this world. This kingdom of the LORD and his CHRIST will).">shall reign forever and ever. (Heaven will be here on earth. Let no man tell you that GOD will take us up in the skies with him).
16: And the four and twenty elders which sat before GOD on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped GOD,
16a (Then all four and twenty elders (apostles, prophets, and disciples) fell down and praised GOD.)
17: Saying, We give thee thanks, 0 LORD GOD Almighty- which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
17a (Saying: we give you thanks (thank you JESUS) it is finally over and this is your kingdom forever.)
18: And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
18a (Then many nations will).">shall be angry because it will be time for judgment. The dead (meaning dead spirits) will be judged first. Many will).">shall have no good work to reward and they will have to watch GOD children getting their rewards for their good work. All that destroy (which means, corrupt) the word of GOD ... Will then be removed.)
19: And the temple of GOD was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament; and there were lightning's, and voices, and thundering, and an earthquake, and great hail.
19a (As GOD's temple will open in heaven, there will).">shall be the ark of his testament (this let you know that the ark of the covenant is in heaven with GOD. Why do many say they are in search of it? It will never be found here on earth, until fathers return) Lighting, thunder, earthquakes, and hail will be heard all over.)
Chapter 12
1: And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
1a (Then a woman (Israel) appeared in the sunlight with the moon shadow above her head. She wore a crown of twelve stars (which represented the twelve tribes.)
2: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth and pained to be delivered.
2a (The women looked as if she was in labor and in pain ready to deliver. (Remember GOD speaks in parables, which represent the new earth age about to be birth.)
3: And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
3a (Satan appeared in heaven also as the great red dragon. Having seven heads (which means seven head of offices), ten horns (which are ten leaders), and seven crowns (these are some of the third of GOD children that followed Satan when he fell.) The ones father wants back.
4: And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth; and the dragon stood before the women which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
4a (His feet led a third of GOD children to earth. Trying to convince the women into delivering each tribe to him as they were formed. (Satan stood before the woman in the garden trying to devour her child before it was even born, JESUS Christ ...Then he sent Cain. Another time he sent his fallen angels to Noah cohabiting with women causing terrible results. Always remember this is Satan MO. which means method of operation, he will do this again in our generation. This is why I stress you should understand Genesis before you even attempt to understand Revelation.)
5: And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto GOD and to his throne.
5a (The women produced a male child JESUS ... to rule over all the tribes with great power. Then, sit at the right hand of GOD's thrown. Also, a third of GOD children had followed Satan, which meant they did not love him anymore. Again. Why did GOD create man? For his pleasure to love him. Then, he sent JESUS (for GOD so loved the world he sent his only begotten son. GOD want them back.)
6: And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of GOD, that they should feed her thee a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
6a (The women went into the earth 1203 days where GOD would take care of her (this 1203 are the days that Daniel spoke of giving the exact season 1897 AD give or take five or ten years. From that time change ... which is from the nineteenth to the twentieth century other things would begin to happen. You would see the generation of the fig tree. This happened in the year of our LORD nineteen hundred and forty eight AD when the nation of Israel would be inhabited both by the good and bad fig spoke of in Jeremiah chapter 24). Waiting for GOD plan (judgment day).
7: And there was war in heaven: Mi-cha-el and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
7a (This irritated Satan. Michael the ark angel could not put up with him any longer. Michael argued GODS word against Satan (remember GOD is the author of peace not confusion), Satan and his army shouted back against Michael and his army.)
8: And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
8a (Michael the ark angel prevailed and Satan was kicked from heaven onto earth. (Beware at this point Satan is among us watch close, pray and study GOD word. Second Thessalonians chapter 2:3-4)
9: And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
9a (When the dragon (called that old Serpent, Devil, and Satan) that deceived the whole world (even the elects if it were possible) and his angles were all cast down from heaven. They did not care who got in their way. They only mission was to recruit many as they could for battle.) Keep in mind that Locust army...
10: And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our GOD, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them, before our GOD day and night.
10a (A loud voice was announced in heaven that Satan had been cast out from there, and no one would ever have to hear his grumble again. Accusing GOD children of loving and living for him. (Job chapter 1-6:11)
11: And they overcame him by the blood of the LAMB, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
11a (They overcame him by the blood of the LAMB (meaning all that know the truth overcome Satan and his angles by the shed blood on the cross the true CHRIST.) and by their testimony as to whom the true CHRIST is. (Especially the two witnesses gospel).
12: Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhibiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
12a (So, they celebrated in heaven, but warned on earth that Satan was very angry and wanted anyone that would follow him. His time is running out. (Remember in the ninth chapter you were told the time has been shorten from three in a half years to five months).
13: And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
13a (When he landed on earth the first souls he tempted was the woman "Mary" whom brought fourth the male child, which are the children of GOD.)
14: And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from, the face of the serpent.
14a (However, the woman (Israel) was given two wings of a great eagle ... Deuteronomy chapter 32:10-11) for protection. While she waits for time (meaning one year); times (which equal two years) and a half time (which equal half a year referring to the three in a half year time that was shorten to five months}. She would be protected from the face of the snake rather than serpent.">Serpent. (GOD gives us a clue here. Notice he called Satan the snake rather than serpent.">Serpent because he will be here to seduce, just as he did in the garden when he was called the snake rather than serpent.">Serpent. Paul will explain it in one, two, etc.">2 Corinthians chapter 11:2-3).
15: And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the women, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
15a (Satan (the snake rather than serpent.">Serpent) begged Israel to join him offering all he had. Telling a flood of lies hoping to entice the children. (He will say he is JESUS coming to rapture his children out. Remember flesh and blood cannot stand next to GOD.)
16: And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
16a (But, the people of the earth kept GOD word. Reminding one nation after another that the dragon was not GOD. (GOD gives us another clue by referring to Satan again as the dragon. In this office he will be in the end times as the anti-Christ).
17: And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of GOD, and have the testimony of JESUS CHRIST.
17a ( After the dragon (Satan) saw there was no tempting the woman (Israel or 12 tribes) he was raged and went after the unlearned).
Chapter 13
1: And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
1a (John then stood in the sand. There he saw Satan rising up from the sea (which are the waters. Meaning people ... Revelation chapter 17/15. In other words, he rises from the nations. This is one of the four dynasties I spoke to you about, the political system. Another introduced at this point will be the religious system.) Satan still had the seven heads (seven offices) but this time he has ten horns (powerful nations with him). All had crowns ... which means the heads or leaders of their land. All wore Satan name upon their heads. (At this point Satan is grooming man to commit the unpardonable sin ... to blaspheme the Holy Spirit).
2: And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
2a (This beast ... Which is the political system) was like a leopard (meaning his spot is not as our spots, they change Deuteronomy 32/5). His feet was as the feet of a bear ... Best described as the old bear of Rush ... the children of Esau Genesis chapter 35/37), and his mouth was like the mouth of a lion (meaning ... he will viciously take his prey. Spiritual speaking ... a lion mouth will rip and destroy. Remember our father speaks in parables). Now the dragon (Satan) gave them their power, their seat in office and their great authority.)
3: And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
3a (John then saw one of the heads (nations) as it was wounded to death (the deadly wound will be ... "The New World Order". This is when all the nation's team together to make ... One world, one money, and one nation. However, there will be one nation that will not agree.) With all the world wondering after this new political system or beast. (Satan will arrive with an answer to resolve this situation. (Coming in prosperously and peacefully. Please remember to watch and pray)
4: And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
4a (They all worshiped the dragon (Satan) saying who else could cause war to cease and cause such peace. What did JESUS say in Mark 13:7 about wars? When you hear wars and rumors of wars fear not. Yet, when the peace comes know JESUS is right at the door. Read 1 Thessalonians 5:3-5 for more insight)
5: And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
5a (The mouth of the nations (which is Satan) began to speak in his favor telling how good he was and asking all to believe in him. GOD allowed Satan to do this for forty-two months. (Remember prophecy given in months or moons is of Satan or his children. Our Father has shorten the forty-two months to a five-month period. Keep in mind ... anything speaking of GOD and his children are spoken of in days ... Solar. We are the children of light.)
6: And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against GOD, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
6a (Then Satan out of his mouth speaks profanities against GOD, his name, his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. (2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 this is our gathering back to GOD please don't get caught up. Listen to our father.)
7: And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindred's, and tongues, and nations.
7a (Father God granted Satan the permission to make the saints very angry with his lies. Try to convince them by any means to convert. Buy them if necessary.
8: And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the LAMB slain from the foundation of the world.
8a (Satan was informed that anyone whose name was not found in the book of life would worship him. (Revelation 17/8).
9: If any man have an ear, let him hear.
9a (GOD hope that we know what is being said ... if you don't understand Satan is coming first, you will worship him. (We are now about to get into the religious part of Satan office.)
10: He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
10a (If you're led to Satan you will go to Satan. If you won't read GOD word ... Which is the two-edged sword) you will follow Satan words. Saints, please stay strong in GOD words. Study your Bibles daily)
11: And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
11a (When Satan comes to earth he will have two horns meaning ... two main offices (preacher & great leader) he will look like JESUS, but will speak blasphemy.)
12: And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
12a (He will try to convince all the earth that the first beast (which is the political system) is the only leader of this world. Announcing how he has healed the problem with the deadly wound and caused peace. (Many churches will follow convinced they are about to be ruptured out.)
13: And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
13a (Satan performs all kinds of tricks ... Causing illusions of fire (lighting) to come from heaven and hit the ground, in the sight of man. (Many will whore after him.)
14: And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
14a (He tries to convince every man to make images of gold, silver, wood, brass, etc. of himself & give thanks to them. Testifying he is JESUS that was crucified and now he lives. (At this time if you know that this is Satan and you do worship him, it will be the unforgivable sin. Luke 12/9-12 this is the hour of temptation).
15: And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
15a (Satan has power to give the one world order a big boost. Snapping your fingers and getting lighten to hit the earth will definitely get man's attention. Using this scare tactic to convince the weak saints to follow him. Explaining ... if they stay around they will miss JESUS and lose their souls. GOD said keep your mouth shut and the Holy Spirit will guide you as you're delivered to death (which is another name for Satan), father God will speak for you. Mark 13/10-11)
16: And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
16a (Some will work in the temple with their hands. Doing work to help the church get stronger ... Mark in the hands. Others will believe in their brain ... which is in the far back of your head ... that Satan is JESUS ... Mark in the forehead.
17: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
17a (Not allowing anyone to receive or trade any goods ... Unless they believe in him. Don't worry about trading with Satan he cannot read your mind. However, try to stock up on silver, gold, brass, copper, etc. to avoid any confusion. It will be very valuable at this time.)
18: Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
18a (Remember Satan returns on the sixth (seal), six (trumpet), and six (vial) it is his number. Count is the message in the Greek, it means stone or false pebbles. Read Ty-rus the fake rock Ezekiel 28:1-19).
Chapter 14
1: And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Zion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
1a (John looked and saw the Lamb (JESUS) standing at Mt. Si-on (in Jerusalem). He was with 144 thousand saints (these are the elects and chosen ones from the second rebellion). All had GOD name (YA) in their minds (Revelation chapter7:1-12). They loved him. (Remember the trumpets and vials are in order. However, the seals are not. We have to learn father God chronological order of events.)
2: And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
2a (John then could hear many waters (different languages) he heard a loud hard voice coming from heaven and there was music of harps playing.)
3: And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
3a (They song a new song around throne ,before the four beast and the elders. This is the song of Moses Deuteronomy chapter 32:1-43). No one could learn it who had not received it on earth from GOD's word.)
4: These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the first fruits unto GOD and to the LAMB.
4a (These saints were true to GOD from the beginning and did not follow Satan in the first earth age. Neither in this dispensation. They have been with JESUS all the way. (Are you one of GOD elects?)
5: And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of GOD.
5a (They have never ever loved Satan or spoke against GOD in any earth age.)
6: And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on earth, and to every nation and kindred, and tongue, and people,
6a (Another angel came down in a form of transportation and flew over everyone. Preaching the everlasting gospel in every tongue to every nation. This will be the first day of the millennium (the thousand years teaching period. There will be strict discipline at this time. Please accept and love our father now. He will not judge anybody's soul until they have heard the true gospel with understanding. Many who claim to be Christians and have attended churches for many years, some has never been truly blessed with the understanding of our fathers word).
7: Saying with a loud voice, Fear GOD, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that make heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
7a (Another angel announced fear (love) GOD and give him glory for the hour of judgment had come. This hour of judgment is what JESUS spoke of in Isaiah 61. GOD is about to clean up the earth and rid us from all the elements and rudiments that offend. This is payday for the saints that overcame. They will be rewarded. Some will be made priest to teach in the millennium. As GOD enter all will worship and praise him ... He made everything.)
8: And there followed another angel saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the, wine of the wrath of her fornication,
8a (Then another angel shouted: all Babylon (confusion) was about to become clear. Also, all that worshiped false gods were foolish. (At this point is when many want the mountains to fall on them Luke 23/30).
9: And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead or in his hand,
9a (As another angel shouted that if anyone had made gold, brass, and silver, also wood, glass, etc. images of the beast or worshiped him in any way)
10: The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of GOD, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the LAMB.
10a (They would see just how angry it had made GOD ... Without any doubt his rage would be well known. (JESUS asked: Father is there any other way this cup could pass? Matthew 26/39). They surely were about to be shamed and would live this way for a long, long time in the presence of the angels and the Lamb.
11: And the smoke of their torment ascended up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image" and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name
11a (They would have no rest day or night because they believed in the beast (Satan) and helped him in his church. Now, how do you think you would feel if you had worship Satan, then find out you had been worshiping the wrong GOD? This would make you feel pretty bad in the presence of our father.)
12: Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of GOD, and the faith of JESUS.
12a (Look at all the elects. These are those who kept GOD commandments, studied the living word (JESUS), and did not give in to the cares of the world.)
13: And I herd a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the LORD from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
13a (Then the voice spoke to the elect that died before the judgment day, those who followed GOD, loved him and believed his word. As the angel explained that all the work they had done from their hearts would not go unnoticed. Saying today they would be rewarded. (These are the ones who had departed this life before the judgment, those that died in CHRIST some examples are: grandmothers, grandfathers, mothers, fathers, kin, etc. Always remember you can take nothing with you when you die the first death. Only righteous acts meaning-your works. Please saints don't look over this statement ... Your works are very important in the eyes of GOD. Our robes we receive in heaven make up our righteous acts. Please don't get caught on judgment day naked in heaven. So smile, plant a seed, help our fellow brothers & sisters when possible. Believe me it will not go ignored. Think about it like this ... Anything that doesn't work is useless. )
14: And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
14a (When John looked he saw a white cloud with JESUS sitting upon it. The son of man wore a golden crown upon his head. He carried a sharp sickle in his hand. Sickles are used to harvest grain. CHRIST is coming to harvest and this sickle is for the ones who don't care anything about him.)
15: And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
15a (Then another angel came out the temple of GOD and shouted to JESUS, it was time to start the reaping on the earth. This is judgment day and our father is always fair. If GOD ever corrects you ... thank him and repent. GOD wrath is never intended toward his children).
16: And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
16a (JESUS gave his OK by tossing his sickle to the earth and faces were sadden.)
17: And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
17a (The next angel came out of the temple of GOD with a sharp sickle.)
18: And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
18a (Another angel that had power over fire came out from the altar of GOD and told the angel with the sickle to toss it to earth. Gather the clusters of the vine for her grapes were fully ripe. (Let me explain this. Remember in John 15:1-8 when JESUS said I am the true vine and my father is the gardener. Well he is about to prune the branches.)
19: And the angel thus in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of GOD.
19a (Then the angel brought down the sickle and gathered the vines of the earth then tossed them into the wrath of GOD. Now you could be tossed into that same wine-press and no harm would come to you. Why? Because GOD is not angry with you. This goes out to those that deserve it. In a just way. Please keep in mind, I am speaking in a spiritual sense. )
20: And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
20a (The wine-press was trodden. Blood would shed from the wine-press, even to the horse bridles by a thousand and six hundred furlongs. Now what are furlongs (One hundred and eighty to two hundred miles. Now who are these horsemen? We will read about them in chapter nineteen when CHRIST returns on that beautiful white steed other than that umbel way he entered Jerusalem at the first advent. Riding on a lonely ass when he came as Savior. This time he comes as king of kings and lord of lords and believe me he is a great disciplinarian. )
