Revelation 14:9 - Forerunner Commentary

Revelation 14:9

7 saying with a loud voice, ^a“Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judgment has come; ^band worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and springs of water.”

8 And another angel followed, saying, ^a“Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because ^bshe has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”

9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, ^a“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his ^bmark on his forehead or on his hand,

10 he himself ^ashall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is ^bpoured out full strength into ^cthe cup of His indignation. ^dHe shall be tormented with ^efire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

11 And ^athe smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

12 ^aHere is the¹ patience of the saints; ^bhere are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying¹ to me, “Write: ^a‘Blessed are the dead ^bwho die in the Lord from now on.’ ” “Yes,” says the Spirit, ^c“that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow ^dthem.”

Reaping the Earth’s Harvest

14 Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a sharp sickle.

15 And another angel ^acame out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, ^b“Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come¹ for You to reap, for the harvest ^cof the earth is ripe.”
