  1. A revelation & prophecy of Jesus Christ is given to John. The time is at hand. I am the alpha & omega, the first & the last, the beginning & the ending. He comes in majesty surrounded by 7 golden candlesticks & 7 stars, which are the 7 angels of the 7 churches of Asia. #Rev1<\/li>
  2. Jesus has John write to the angels of the churches. Ephesus is hard-working but forsook love. Smyrna is a synagogue of Satan. Pergamum is Satan\u2019s throne, with idol worship & sexual immorality. Thyatira follows Jezebel\u2019s seductions. Repent! He that hath an ear, let him hear. #Rev2<\/li>
  3. Sardis, I have not found thy works perfect. Philadelphia, I will keep thee from the hour of temptation. Uphold my word to become a pillar in the new Jerusalem. Laodicea is not hot nor cold but lukewarm. Buy of me gold to be rich, that the shame of thy nakedness disappears. #Rev3<\/li>
  4. John has a vision of heaven. On a throne He is surrounded by 24 elders in white worshipping Him forever, & by 4 beasts\u2014lion, calf, man, eagle\u2014with eyes before & behind. The beasts give glory, honor, & thanks to Him. Thou art worthy, O Lord, for thou hath created all things. #Rev4<\/li>
  5. I saw a scroll with writing on both sides sealed with 7 seals. No one is worthy to read the book but the Lion of the tribe of Judah, a slain Lamb with 7 eyes. The 4 beasts, 24 elders & 10000×10000 angels worship Him forever, saying Worthy is the Lamb, blessings be unto Him. #Rev5<\/li>
  6. The Lamb opens the seals. From the 1st seal, a white horse of conquest; 2nd, a red horse of power; 3rd, a black horse of measures; 4th, a pale horse of Death & Hell; 5th, an altar over the souls of martyrs; & the 6th, a great earthquake & the great day of His wrath. #Rev6<\/li>
  7. Four angels from the 4 corners of the world put seals on the foreheads of 12000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel. A multitude dressed in white stood before the throne. Never again will they hunger, for the Lamb at the throne will lead them to springs of living water. #Rev7<\/li>
  8. When the 7th seal was opened, 7 angels with trumpets stood before God. An 8th angel cast a golden censer. The trumpet of the 1st angel sounded, bringing hail & fire mixed with blood; the 2nd, seas of blood; the 3rd, a star fell; the 4th, the moon, Sun & stars were smitten. #Rev8<\/li>
  9. When the 5th angel\u2019s trumpet sounded, a star fell, opening an abyss from which a woe of locusts came (whose king was the Angel of the Abyss), torturing mankind. When the 6th angel\u2019s trumpet sounded, a woe of angels & riders came, killing 1\/3rd of mankind by fire & sulfur. #Rev9<\/li>
  10. And I saw an angel standing upon the sea and earth open a small scroll. I heard a voice from the heavens saying things, but I wrote them not. The angel gave me the scroll saying, Take it, it shall taste of honey but make thy belly bitter. And so it was. Thou must prophesy. #Rev10<\/li>
  11. The 2nd woe calling mankind to repentance ends when a beast from the abyss kills those trampling on the holy city. An earthquake will kill many & destroy the city. The 3rd woe comes with the sounding of the 7th angel\u2019s trumpet, opening God\u2019s temple in heaven with the ark. #Rev11<\/li>
  12. A great wonder in heaven appeared: a woman clothed with the Sun & moon & pregnant with child, & a great red dragon with 7 heads & 10 horns. The dragon prepares to devour the male child that the woman delivers, but is stopped by Michael & his angles and cast out of heaven.  #Rev12<\/li>
  13. A beast with 7 heads and 10 horns rose up from the sea & spoke great blasphemies, but is worshipped by the world. A second beast with 2 horns came from the Earth & deceived by miracles. He made all to be marked on their hand or forehead. The number of the beast is 666. #Rev13<\/li>
  14. I saw 144000 sing before the throne, the 4 beasts & the elders. I saw angels say Fear god, & give glory to him. Babylon is fallen. If any man worship the beast, he shall be marked: Thrust in thy sickle & reap. Grapes of wrath were trodden in the winepress & blood came out. #Rev14<\/li>
  15. I saw in heaven 7 angles with 7 plagues to complete God\u2019s wrath on man. And I saw the victorious with harps singing a song of Moses glorifying the Lord. And I saw the temple of the tabernacle of the ark filled with the smoke of God\u2019s glory & the 7 angles with the plagues. #Rev15<\/li>
  16. They pour out 7 bowls of God\u2019s wrath onto the land, sea, rivers, sun, throne of the beast, Euphrates & air. Even the sores, blood, darkness & fire called forth do not make blasphemers repent. Kings are called to the battle of God at Armageddon, amid earthquakes & plagues. #Rev16<\/li>
  17. One of the angels carried me into the Spirit of Wilderness, where I saw a woman, drunk with blood, on a beast with Babylon the Great, The Mother of Prostitutes written on her forehead. The 10 horns on the beast signify kings who wage war against the Lamb, who will triumph. #Rev17<\/li>
  18. Another angel from heaven shouted, Fallen is Babylon the Great, a dwelling for demons. Her sins are piled up to heaven; kings committed adultery with her; merchants gained wealth from her. They cry, Woe, woe to you, you mighty city of Babylon, in one hour your doom comes. #Rev18<\/li>
  19. Then I saw a great multitude, 24 elders & the 4 beasts falling down and worshipping God. Amen! Hallelujah! For the wedding of the Lamb is come. Heaven opened, & a horse emerged with a rider called The Word of God, his sword slaying the beast, the kings, & their armies. #Rev19<\/li>
  20. I saw an angel come down from heaven & bind Satan in the abyss for 1000 years. Satan returns to deceive Gog & Magog before being cast into fire & brimstone. And I saw a great white throne & God reading the book of life. Those not in the book are cast into the lake of fire. #Rev20<\/li>
  21. And I saw a new heaven & a new earth, where the righteous suffer no more, & the evil burn. One of the 7 angels showed me the holy city, the new Jerusalem, with walls of precious stones & gates of pearl. The Lord God & the Lamb are its temple, & the glory of God its light. #Rev21<\/li>
  22. And then I saw a river of the water of life, with the tree of life on either side. There will no longer be any curse or night, and they shall see His face. I John saw these things & fell down to worship. He sayeth, Behold, I come quickly, & sent angels to testify. Amen. #Rev22<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
