Revelation
22:7-21
7
AND BEHOLD, I AM COMING SPEEDILY,
Blessed
(happy and to be envied) is he
WHO
OBSERVES AND LAYS TO HEART
AND
KEEPS THE TRUTHS OF THE PROPHECY--
The
Predictions, Consolations and Warnings--
Contained
in this Little Book.
8
And I John am he
Who
heard and witnessed these things.
And
when I heard and saw them,
I
fell prostrate before the feet of the Messenger (angel)
Who
showed them to me, to worship him.
9
But he said to me,
Refrain!--You
must not do that!
I
am [only] a fellow servant
Along
with yourself and of your brethren the Prophets,
And
those who are mindful
And
practice [the truths contained in]
The
Messages of this Book.
WORSHIP
GOD!
10
And he [further] told me,
DO
NOT SEAL UP THE WORDS
OF
THE PROPHECY OF THIS BOOK
And
make No Secret of them;
For
the time when things are brought to a Crisis
AND
THE PERIOD OF THEIR FULFILLMENT IS NEAR.
11
He who is Unrighteous (unjust, wicked)
Let
him be Unrighteous still,
And
he that is Filthy (vile, impure)
Let
him be Filthy still,
And
he that is Righteous
(just,
upright, in right standing with God)
Let
him do Right still,
And
he who is Holy
Let
him be Holy still. [Dan. 12:10.]
12
BEHOLD I AM COMING SOON,
And
I shall bring My Wages and Rewards with Me,
To
repay and render to each one
Just
what his own actions and his own work merit.
[Isa.
40:10; Jer. 17:10.]
13
I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA
The
First and the Last
(The
before all and at the End of all)
[Isa.
44:6; 48:12.]
14
BLESSED (happy and to be envied)
Are
those who cleanse their garments
That
they may have the Authority and Right
To
[approach] THE TREE OF LIFE
And
to enter in through the Gates
To
the City. [Gen. 2:9; 3:22, 24.]
15
[BUT] WITHOUT ARE THE DOGS
And
those who Practice Sorceries (magic arts)
And
Impurity (the lewd, adulterers)
And
the Murderers and Idolaters
And
every one who loves and deals win Falsehood--
Untruth,
Error, Deception, Cheating.
16
I, JESUS HAVE SENT MY MESSENGER (ANGEL)
To
you to Witness and to give you assurance of these things
For
the Churches (assemblies).
I
AM [BOTH] THE ROOT (THE SOURCE)
AND
THE OFFSPRING OF DAVID,
The
Radiant and Brilliant Morning Star. [Isa. 11:1,10.]
17
The (Holy) Spirit and the Bride
[the
Church, the true Christians]
SAY,
COME!
And
let him who is listening say, COME!
And
let everyone come who is THIRSTY
[Who
is Painfully Conscious of his need
Of
those things
By
which the soul is refreshed, supported and strengthened];
And
whoever [EARNESTLY] desires to do it,
LET
HIM COME AND TAKE AND APPROPRIATE (DRINK)
THE
WATER OF LIFE WITHOUT COST. [Isa. 55:1.]
18
I [personally solemnly]
WARN
EVERY ONE WHO LISTENS
To
the statements of the Prophecy
[The
Predictions and the Consolations
And
Admonitions pertaining to them]
IN
THIS BOOK:
If
anyone shall add anything to them,
God
will add and lay upon him the Plagues—
The
Afflictions and Calamities--
That
are recorded and described in THIS BOOK.
19
And if anyone cancels or take away from the statements
OF
THE BOOK OF THIS PROPHECY--
These
predictions relating to Christ's Kingdom
And
its Speedy Triumph,
Together
with the Consolations and Admonitions
(WARNINGS)
Pertaining
to them—
GOD
WILL CANCEL and TAKE AWAY FROM HIM
HIS
SHARE IN THE TREE OF LIFE
And
in the City of Holiness (pure and hallowed)
Which
are Described and PROMISED in THIS BOOK.
20
HE WHO GIVES THIS WARNING
And
Affirms and Testifies to these things, says,
YES—IT
IS TRUE.
[SURELY]
I AM COMING QUICKLY—
SWIFTLY,
SPEEDILY.
AMEN—SO
BE IT! YES, COME, LORD JESUS!
The
Grace (blessing and favor)
Of
the Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah
Be
with all the Saints—God's Holy People
[Those
Set Apart for God, to be, as it were, Exclusively His].
Amen—so
let it be!
(Revelation
22:7-21, AMP)
Christ Jesus warned us:
Be always on the
Watch,
And pray that you will
be able to Escape
All that is about to
happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND
Before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is Raging Against God,
Rushing toward
Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in it's Present Form is Passing Away.
(1
Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being Ground to Powder
Because
of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done,
On
Earth as in Heaven!
