IF ANYONE WORSHIPS THE BEAST

 

9 A Third Angel followed them

And said in a Loud Voice:

“IF ANYONE WORSHIPS THE BEAST

AND ITS IMAGE

AND RECEIVES TS MARK

ON THEIR FOREHEAD

OR ON THEIR HAND

10 THEY TO 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 MAKE 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 HEARD A VOICE FROM HEAVEN

SAY, WRIT THIS:

BLESSED ARE THE DEAD

WHO DIE IN THE LORD FROM NOW ON.”

“YES SAYS THE SPIRIT,

THEY WILL REST FROM THE LABOR,

FOR THEIR DEEDS WILL FOLLOW THEM.”

(Revelation 14:9-13, NIV)
