XVI. “The Seal of GOD”
The
deepest cravings of human ideals are denied when the authority of the Word of GOD is renounced. To not
tenaciously cling to the Holy Promises of His Deliverance from the arrogant ignorance, cruel indifference, and tyranny that
rules this world is to renounce every childhood dream for justice, mercy and love. But to live a life of
selfish gratification, with its temporary pleasures, is synonymous with the act of committing suicide. We
were not created to die! There was only One born into this world whose sole purpose was to die that we
might live: “the Christ of God.” Despite GOD’S efforts, putting all His powers on the stretch to redeem
His children from their afflictions, death has become the choice of most, by choosing to remain in a life of sin.
GOD, Who will never force the will, must allow for this decision. The Scriptures teach that the
vast majority of the human race have chosen this fate. Even among those professing Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism,
Islam, and Christianity, they choose of their own freewill to remain deaf to His “still, small voice” of “love.”
“The kingdom of heaven” is calling for us, to become a part of the tapestry of riches and knowledge
that all the wealth of earth, the insatiable appetite for things of no lasting value, and the vain glory of unholy pursuits:
none of the rewards of this world can compare to the future achievements that are promised to the few who live to see “the
new earth:” “As it is written, Eye
hath not seen, nor ear heard; neither hath entered into the mind of man the things that GOD hath prepared for them that love
Him” (II Cor.2:9). Evidence of life’s
basic disappointment is found in the life of King Solomon. He was granted everything a man could desire
from this world. And as an wise old man he came to the simple conclusion that many will learn too late:
“I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and behold, all is vanity [an emptiness in the end]
and vexation of spirit [an insatiable appetite in all things]. Eccl.1:14.
This lesson must be understand in light of GOD’S original intention for His Creation. There
was once an infinite span of time before there were any stars, angels, or man, when GOD sat alone on His throne.
The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit devoted this infinite expanse of time to the solemn contemplation
of how to proceed with the Creation of Life. This age of time was devoted by our Creator to one purpose
and one purpose alone according to the words of Jesus Christ: “that
your joy might be full.” Jn.15:11.
To be held in torturing shackles in some dark, cold dungeon with the companionship of Christ and the knowledge of His
Love is infinitely better than sitting on the throne of the world without it! Therefore, it has always
been the faithful Christian’s focus to uplift Christ by obeying the counsel of GOD’S Word, for Scripture was the
tutor that fortified the faith of Christ Himself. Therefore, Bible believing Christians take great pleasure
in exploring the infinite value of one verse: “Seek ye out
of the book of the LORD and read: no one of these shall fail.” Isaiah 34:16.
1. What is “the seal of GOD?”
Exodus 31:13-17 Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for ____ ____ ____
_______ ______________ ____ _____ _____ throughout your generations; that ye
may know that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for
it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever
doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people. Six days
may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath,
to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant. (v.17) It is ___ _______ between me and the children of Israel _____ ________: for in
six days the LORD made heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.
The basis of
all trust lies in our confidence in the assurances given. When GOD finished Creation “He rested on the seventh day”
rejoicing in the successful completion of His work. He rested in the knowledge that His established laws governing life
and nature guaranteed the perpetual safety and happiness of all life—for all eternity! The Sabbath hours are a time of solemn
joy for GOD because He rests in the knowledge of His perfect provision for all life: a tranquility that is to stand for all
eternity. Adam and Eve shared in the joy of GOD’S rest: His Holy Promise that gave assurance for their eternal
security and joy (Genesis 2:1-3).
Man’s
Sabbath rest was threatened the moment Satan waged war against the human family. In fact, Satan’s entire campaign
centers on attacking the Sabbath rest: GOD’S promise of universal tranquility for all life. In seducing
Adam and Eve to share in his sin against the Commandment of GOD the peace and tranquility of every creature came to an end.
By aligning themselves to Satan, Adam and Eve handed the dominion of Earth over to Satan. As
a consequence, every affliction of life is the direct result of Satan’s jurisdiction. This is why Jesus called
him, “the prince of this world” (Jn.14:30).
But four thousand years later when “the LORD our Maker”
left the courts of heaven and came to live among men, in the person of Jesus Christ, His victory over sin and the
grave promises the restoration of universal tranquility, of which the Sabbath rest is the seal of our faith in His victory.
The rest that was lost through the intrusion of Satan’s cruel, tyrannical government will one day be restored
through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As “the LORD” completed His creation of the Earth
in six days, Jesus completed His creative work of salvation on the sixth day, carrying “the sin of the world”
to the grave and left it there. He obeyed the 4th Commandment by resting in the grave on the seventh day.
The seventh day Sabbath is the seal of His sacrifice, His victory, and our salvation, through faith in Him. “Behold
the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Jn.1:29.
The Creator of Life had to risk His Very Existence and become “the Christ” to restore the
Sabbath Joy of His Father. It was stolen from Him through the rise of greed in the mind of Lucifer, the
once great and holy angel who alone introduced the concept of war to assault the holy tranquility GOD provided to all living
things, “In the beginning.” Through Jesus Christ, holy angels and men are now provided with a future and
a hope to enter the Father’s joy, of which the Sabbath rest is “the seal of God” (Rev.9:4).
To repose in gratitude that our life has been redeemed from the
world’s destruction, and that GOD’S assurance is worthy of our trust! Of this wonder yet to come, Paul’s
words deserve repetition: “But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart
of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” I Cor.2:9. Human comprehension cannot grasp the
scope of what joys are to come to those who “the LORD” says, “love me and keep my commandments.” Ex.20:6.
2. Will
the ruling churches of earth ever acknowledge their
loyalty to GOD as Creator and Redeemer?
Jeremiah 44:16,17 As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, _____ _______ ______ ______________
______ ______. (v.17) ______ _____ ______ ________________ ____ ____________________
________ ________ _______ ______ ____ _____ _____ ___________, to burn incense unto
the queen of heaven [whose counterpart today is the worship of and prayers to the Virgin Mary, being heralded by Catholic
leaders as “Queen of the Universe”], and to pour out drink offerings unto her as we have done, we and our fathers,
our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then
had we plenty of victuals [bread], and were well, and saw no evil.
Revelation 19:19,20 And I saw the beast [the pope of Rome (Rev.13:17)], and the
kings of the earth [the leaders of nations], and their armies, gathered together _____ ________ ______ ___________
______ that sat on the horse, and against His army. And _____ ___________ [the king of Christendom, the Pope]
was taken, and with him ______ __________ ____________ [apostate Protestantism] that
wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image.
_________ _______ were cast alive into ___ _______ ____ _______ burning with brimstone.
3. What
is the moment of history when the world's
civilization has decided to either obey or disobey
permanently the Gospel of Jesus Christ?
Revelation 22:11 He that is unjust,
let him be _________ ________: and he which is filthy, let him be _________ ________: and he that is righteous,
let him be ______________ still: and he that is holy, let him be _______ still.
Hebrews
6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made
partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of GOD, and the powers of the world to come, (v.6) _____
_______ _________ ______ _________, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves
the Son of GOD afresh, and put Him to an open shame.
To “fall away” in
the Greek text does not refer to a “backslider” in the church (Jer.3:12)
or one who has fallen into sin (Mal.3:6,7). It means to “forever renounce” or “apostatize” one's
faith in GOD and His Word. There are many examples in Scripture of men who fell prey to all manner of wickedness and
cruel indifference, but who came to know GOD'S voice once more and returned to His call to salvation. His “still,
small voice” led them to repent of their great and many sins, and thus receive pardon as GOD so mercifully said, “I
have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto Me; for I have redeemed thee.”
Isa.44:22.
His salvation
is not to be trifled with, as is too often the case with Christians, who use the obedience of Jesus as a license for disobedience.
Scripture admonishes us: “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.”
Rom. 6:12.
4. What will happen when everyone has made up their mind
to either obey or disobey
the Gospel of Christ?
Revelation
15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from His power; and no man was able to enter into
the temple, till _____ __________ _____________ of the seven angels were fulfilled.
Revelation 16:1-4,8-12,17-21 And I heard a great voice out
of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of GOD upon the earth. (v.2) And
the first angel went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell ___ ______________ _____ ______________
________ upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. (v.3) And the second angel
poured out his vial _______ _____ _____; and it became as the blood of a dead man:

_________ ____, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.... (v.17) And the seventh angel poured out
his vial into ______ ______; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is
done. And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men
were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities
of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before GOD, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness
of His wrath. And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. (v.21) And there fell upon men ____ _________
________ out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent [approx. 50+ lbs. each plus the increased weight from their
speed]: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague was exceeding great.
Joel 1:10-12,17-20 The field is _____________, the land
________________; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth. (v.11) Be ye ashamed, 0 ye husbandmen;
howl, 0 ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is ______________. (v.12) The
vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are ________________: _____________ _____ ____ ________________
_______ from the sons of men.... (v.17) The seed is rotten under their clods, the garners are laid desolate, the barns are
broken down; for the corn is withered. (v.18) _____ ____ _____ __________ __________! the herds
of cattle are ________________, because they have ____ _____________; yea, the flocks of sheep are made ______________.
0 LORD, to Thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees
of the field. (v.20) The beasts of the field ______ also unto Thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath
devoured the pastures of the wilderness.
Amos 8:3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the LORD God: there shall be
________ ________ ___________ ____ ________ ________; they shall cast them forth with silence.
Jeremiah 25:31-35 A noise shall
come even to the ends of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with the nations, He will plead with all flesh; he will
give them that are wicked to _____ __________, saith the LORD. (v.32) Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Behold, evil shall
go forth _______ ___________ ____ ___________, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts
of the earth. (v.33) And _____ __________ ____ _____ ________ shall be at that day from ______
______ ____ _____ __________ _______ ______ _____ ________ _____ ____
_____ __________: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be upon the ground. Howl, ye
shepherds [unrepentant, shameless ministers of apostate religion], and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal
of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.
How our religious
leaders can deny the prophecies of the Earth’s ruin leading to the 2nd Advent of Christ defies reason. Their
extent of denial is identical to when Christ was raised from the dead and the Roman guards who witnessed the event rushed
to tell the Jewish priests how an angel came down from heaven and opened the tomb, and they saw Jesus walk out of the tomb
in Glory. And the priests response, “Here’s fifty bucks: keep your mouth shut” (paraphrase of Matthew
28:11-15). It is just as Jesus said, “If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded,
though one rose from the dead.” Lu.16:31. As the animals are ignorant to the threat of cars and trucks, so man
is ignorant to the threat of Satan and Sin.
5. When will the Bible disobedient church learn that their
chosen path has not led
them to heaven but rather to
stand condemned before the GOD they claim to serve?
Revelation 16:10 And the fifth
angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was ______ ____ _______________; and they

doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold _______________; for brightness, but
we walk in ______________. We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had
no eyes: we stumble at noon day as in the night; we
are in desolate places as dead men. We
roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for
salvation, but it is far off from us. (v.12) For our transgressions are multiplied before Thee, and our sins testify against
us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities,
_____ ________ ________; In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking
oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.
Nahum 2:10 She is empty, and void, and waste: and the heart melteth, and the knees
smite together, and _______ _______ is in all loins, and the faces of them all __________ _______________.
Zechariah 14:13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among
them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbor, and his hand shall rise up _________ _____
________ ____ _____ _______________.
Step by step the Vatican-ordained theocracy exalting the ancient
day of sun worship is taking control over the civil authorities of earth. To give you an idea of the extent of Rome’s
power over the world economy, in Muslim Pakistan they work on Friday (Islam's holy day) but they don't work on Sunday.
This is a leading reason Pakistan’s leaders are being threatened by militant Muslims. Why do the leaders transgress
Islam’s holy day of Friday? Because world commerce demands that every day but Sunday is for labor that economic
security be maintained. Step by step this religious theocracy exalting Sunday sacredness is forming, but Jehovah is
not on the mercy seat of the temple—the
pope is (II Th.2:4). One sinful man desires
the power of heaven’s theocracy but not the laws on which it was founded nor the character of its redeeming qualities.
All throughout history the popes
of Rome have had others do their dirty work: claiming innocent hands while leading others to stand condemned with them in
sin (Dan.11:21; Rev.13:4). The pope is no different than Pontius Pilate who symbolically washed his hands of his own sin of
sending the Innocent Christ to the crucifix (Matt.27:24). This has always been the danger of uniting church with state.
It
was the union of church and state that crucified the world’s Redeemer (Jn.19:15). It was the union of church and
state that worked to destroy Christ’s faithful ones throughout the centuries: generations of noble commandment-keeping
Christians such as: the Albigenses, the Arnoldists, the Berengarians, the Celts, the Claudians, the Henricians, the Insabbatati,
the Jacobites, the Leonists, the Lollards, the Messiahans, the Nazarenes, the Passagians, the Paterines, the Paulicians, the
Petrobusians, the Runerians, the Saint Thomas Christians, the Subalpini, the Vaudois, and the Waldenses. These
faithful-to-Christ brethren lived in the mountain regions throughout Europe and the British Isles, extending even throughout
Asia. It was their missionary work and sacrifice that sparked the Reformation movement through the Waldensian missionary,
Lollard, a Sabbath keeper who enlightened John Wycliffe [“the Morning Star of the Reformation (Rev.12:14-17)] to Rome’s
arrogance against GOD’S Holy Law and His Word. Wycliffe’s followers were even known in the region as Lollards. Then, one hundred years later came John Huss, who was burned at the stake (by
command of the pope). The LORD would not allow him to suffer in the flames: his voice sang the Psalms of David as His breath
went away. His followers were the Hussites. Then a hundred years later came Luther and
the Lutherites who became the Lutherans. There is a host of other great names who were unified in the faith of Jesus:
unified that the Word of GOD must always reign supreme in the life of the believer.
But over time and several generations, Rome has regained her
power and influence through espionage via the Jesuit Order whose covert activities spearheaded the counter-reformation to
remove anything injurious to “his holiness” the pope. As a result of their success, Bible prophecy
declares that the union of church and state will rise to power in our generation and bring the final religious tyranny (Rev.13:15).
The pawn for the Vatican today is Rome’s “children,” in Protestant America (Rev.2:21-23). Rome
always comes out smelling like a rose while entire nations take the fall for her; and the U.S. will swiftly fall to national
ruin when this apostasy of Sunday is legislated into federal law, as “the LORD” warned, “Therefore this
iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out of a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.”
Isa.30:13.
But the day is
coming when the wicked will realize that Rome is evangelizing the world into universal transgression against the Holy Law
of Jehovah (Rev.16:10-14) and the aroma of the rose coming from the Vatican will be discovered to be nothing more than a Glade
Air Freshener, masking the stench of the very principle used to crucify the world’s Redeemer: “the tradition of
men.” Said the LORD, “Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? …Thus have
ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition.” “For laying aside the commandment of God, ye
hold the tradition of men…Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” Matt.15:3,6;
Mk.7:8,9. In essence, the Bible warns all of us of the condemnation of multitudes of Catholics and Protestants alike
because of their worship of and obedience to the renegade religion of the Vatican (Rev.13:16-18) masquerading as the servants
of Christ. In reality they are merely the continuation of the age-old idolaters of Nimrod, who worshipped a sinful man
and his religion above the GOD of man’s salvation (Rev.14:9,10). At the tower of Babel GOD miraculously prevented
the global unification of men. But He will
not prevent it today! Sin must be allowed
to play out that all may see its true objective: the destruction of all life.
Man’s war against GOD’S salvation has only one destination as it is written: “But he that sinneth against
me wrongeth his own soul: all they that hate me love death.” Prov.8:36. This is why the prophecy of Christ’s
2nd Advent is so profound in both its promise and warning: “And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is
come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets,
and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.”
Rev.11:18.
All should prayerfully
consider the magnitude of the grand deception of the end times, because for multitudes of professing Christians its discovery
will be too late.
6. Will GOD protect His faithful children during the seven
last plagues and from the
threat of men who have
legislated the death sentence against the saints?
Zechariah 2:8 For thus saith
the LORD of hosts; After the glory hath He sent Me unto the nations which spoiled you: _____ ____ _______
_____________ _____ ____________ _____ _________ ____ _____ _____.
Psalm 91:1-12 He that dwelleth
in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge
and my fortress: my GOD; in Him will I trust. Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome
pestilence. He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and
buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that
walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noon-day. (v.7) A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand
at thy right hand; but ____ _______ _____ _______ _______ _______. Only with thine eyes
shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High,
thy habitation; (v.10) There shall ____ _______ _________ _______, neither shall _____
____________ come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall
bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

wicked, when it cometh. For _____ ________ ________ ____ _____ ________________, and shall

of rocks: bread shall be __________ him; his waters shall be ________.
Isaiah 41:17,18 When the poor
and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel
will not forsake them. I will _______ _________ in high places, and ______________ in the midst of the valleys: I will
make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.
7.
Is the Second Advent of Jesus Christ a rescue
of His
“brethren” from man’s legislated death decree?
Psalm 50:3-5
______ ______ ________ ________ and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before Him, and it shall
be very tempestuous round about Him. He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people.
Gather My saints together unto Me; those that have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.
Isaiah 25:7-9 And He will destroy in this mountain the face
of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations. (v.8) He will swallow up death in victory;
and the LORD God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and _____ ___________ ____ _____ ___________
_______ ____ _______ _______ from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. (v.9) And it shall be
said in that day, ____, _______ ____ ______ ______; ____ ________ ___________ _____

and rejoice in His salvation.
Micah 7:10
Then she that is mine enemy shall see it, and _________ _______ ________ _____ which said unto me,
Where is the LORD thy God? mine eye shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
There are many Bible passages
that warn all men to steer clear of sin, and yet, Paul’s words fall on deaf ears: “Now all these things happened
unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.” I Cor.10:11.
8. In the final battle in the
long-standing civil war of
Christianity, will Christ's brethren lift up arms?
John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: ____ ____ ______________
_______ ____ _______ __________, _______ _________ ____ ___________ __________,

II Corinthians 5:20 Now then ____ _____ ___________________
_____ _________, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to GOD.
9. What
is promised for those “which were not defiled with
women; for they are virgins....And in their
mouth was
found no guile: for they are without fault before the
throne of GOD?”
Revelation 14:3 And they ________
____ ____ ________ ____ ______ _______ before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the
elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
Isaiah 11:6-9 The wolf also shall
dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the
lion shall eat straw like the ox. And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put
his hand on the cockatrice' den. (v.9) They shall _____ _______ _____ ____________ in all My holy mountain:
for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
Isaiah 65:21 And they shall _________ houses, and inhabit
them; and they shall __________ vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall
not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree [immovable] are the days of My people, and Mine elect shall long enjoy
the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble; for they are the seed of the blessed
of the LORD, and their offspring with them. And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they
are yet speaking, I will hear. The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the lion shall eat straw like the bullock: and
dust shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, saith the LORD.
Revelation 21:10-12 And He carried
me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, _____ _______ __________________
descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a
jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names
written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
Revelation 21:21-22:7 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls;
every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. And I saw no
temple therein: for the LORD God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither
of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them
which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. And the
gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honour
of the nations into it. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination,
or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life. And he shewed me a pure river of water of life,
clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of GOD and of the Lamb. (22:2) In the midst of the street of it, and on either
side of the river, was there _____ _______ ____ _______ which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded
her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for _____ ___________ ____ _____ ___________.
And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and His servants shall serve Him:
And they shall see His face; and His name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no
candle, neither light of the sun; for the LORD God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. And he said
unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the LORD God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto His servants
the things which must shortly be done. Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this
book.
