Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Brother Shallieu’s thoughts on Verses 9 and 10 “And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, these are the true sayings of God. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, see thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus:…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) VERSE 9 “Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.” AND HE SAID TO ME: This “he” comes out of nowhere! BUT, if, as suggested, Rev 19:1-10 is actually a part of Chapter 18, the reference does NOT AT ALL seem disconnected, but is a natural reference back to Rev…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Brother Shallieu’s comments on Verses 7 and 8: “Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.” Verse 6 concludes with the fitting climax of the rendering of praise to the…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Brother Shallieu’s thoughts on Verses 5 and 6: “And a voice came out of the throne, saying, praise our God, all you his servants, and you that fear him, both small and great. And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thundering’s, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigns.” The voice coming out of the…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) VERSE 4 “And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, “Amen! Alleluia!” AND THE TWENTY-FOUR ELDERS: — all of the testimony of God’s pre-written plans AND THE FOUR LIVING ONES: — the personifications of God’s own attributes FELL DOWN: — the visible action representing total respect, dedication, and worship AND WORSHIPPED GOD: — by having been fulfilled and understood SAYING, AMEN….
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Brother Shallieu’s thoughts on Verse 3: “And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.” For the “much people in heaven” to repeat “Alleluia” indicates they will be pleased—even thrilled—to see the judgment rendered. Not satisfied to say once, “Alleluia . . . he hath judged the great whore,” they, on second thought, exclaim again, “Alleluia”! This is the spirit of prophecy. Christians should sympathetically imbibe the same…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Verses 1 and 2 as noted in Brother Shallieu’s Revelation study: “And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, unto the Lord our God: For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.” Brother…
Revelation Chapter 19 UNIVERSAL REJOICING (Rev 19:1-10) Introductory Remarks Chapter 19 divides clearly into two sections. The first 10 verses are an extension of Chapter 18 showing the rejoicing following the destruction of Babylon and the glorification of the Church and Great Company. Its impact would probably be more powerful had the editors of the Bible placed the chapter division after verse 10. Verses 11-21 are significant in that they provide the LAST descriptive picture of the destruction of Churchianity…
Revelation Chapter 18 VERSE 24 “And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth.” AND IN HER WAS FOUND: once it is all over, people will probe her ruins — investigate her history and her secrets. THE BLOOD: — the spilled blood, the mis-used life and merit OF PROPHETS: — of Old Testament teachings AND OF SAINTS: — of the Gospel Age faithful AND OF ALL WHO HAVE BEEN…
Revelation Chapter 18 Brother Shallieu gives another unique perspective of Verses 22 and 23 “And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee; And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and…
