Let's continue the visions of Gerard dear Dr. Davis I don't know about you but exciting giving all the things that we have seen in Revelation up to this point that we see the vindication of the ram and we see the encouragement that is offered to the church as well as to the hundred 44,000 that are preserved in the tribulation. This shows the faithfulness of God to the church as well as to those that are in the tribulation. The best way for us to prepare for such a scene.

This is to praise God by living a committed Christian life. That is how we prepare for the judgment seat of Christ and our life in eternity. Again, we are still in the prelude were still in the policy before the bowl judgments which happened in chapter 16 that were going to finish chapter 14 and move on to verses six through 20. They should remember I said earlier that chapter 14 has five visions that John records, they are not necessarily in chronological order. They are a series of announcements by angels of dramatic events which are about to take place during the tribulation. We have angels appearing in verses six, eight, nine, 15, 17 and 18 of chapter 14. Each of these Angels announce the coming event and prophetic history that will affect the lives of the people of God who are on earth during the tribulation days.

Again, we covered the hundred 44,000 in verses one through five. But let's begin with the next vision and I versus 67 then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth to every nation tried tongue and people saying with a loud voice, fear God and give glory to him for the hour of his judgment has come and worship him who made heaven and earth see and the springs of the water their keywords in these versus the keywords in verse six are everlasting gospel in verse seven from God and give glory to him for the hour of his judgment has come and worship him made heaven and earth to see in the springs of water. The main message is this angel is to fear God and to worship him. The emphasis of God is the creator of heaven and earth and the sea in the springs of water really mentions nothing of the blood of Christ forgiveness or repentance. Dr. Henry Morris calls out our attention to this fact.

It says if Christ is not the creator. He can hardly be the Savior of the coming King and this is interesting as this has a different vantage point than how we minister in the gospel today. The men of the last days which those that are living in the last days that need to be converted or that need to be saved. They must be called back to believe in a true creation and therefore a real creator God before they can be constrained to come to him as Savior. When you talk to the intellectuals of modern-day evolution is the predominant belief on undercutting the evidence of God, but verse six is the only place in Scripture where the gospel is called the everlasting gospel. This is the original gospel from God. The original gospel is to worship and fear God, let's move on to the next vision in the next vision is in verse eight relation chapter 4 verse eight and another angel followed, saying Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink the wine of the wrath of her fornication was going to treat matters.
