Good afternoon, everyone!
Today I read Revelation 13-16.
In today's reading, the beast appears. And the beast does miracles, including a fatal wound healing. And the world marvels and worships the beast. The beast speaks blasphemies against God and is allowed to make war with God's people.
Then another beast appears. This one has all the authority of the first beast and causes all those on earth to worship the first beast. This second beast is a deceiver. And it is given to this beast to cause those who do not worship the image of the first beast to be put to death.
Those who do not accept the mark of the beast will be killed also.
After this time, Jesus appears with the 144,000, and these chosen sing a song of praise to God.
After this, God's word will be preached throughout the earth.
And some will heed the warning and choose God.
After this, there will be seven plagues upon the earth, yet no one will repent, instead cursing and blaspheming God because of their torment.
Yikes! That was a lot today! I confess that I didn't understand all of what I read today, but I tried to give you an overview of what I did understand.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Revelation 17-19.
