The first angel’s message in Revelation 14 is a call to worship Him “who made heaven and earth”—a direct reference to the fourth commandment. Most Christians believe that the seventh-day Sabbath is for Jews, but the Bible reveals a completely different picture than what you’ve been told.

Revelation 12 gives us with an overview of history from Christ’s birth to the final events.

Near-death experiences reinforce the popular belief among Christians that souls go to heaven or hell as soon as the body dies.

The first angel of Revelation 14 proclaims a judgment that occurs before Jesus comes in glory. This judgment begins at the end of the longest time prophecy in Scripture—the 2,300 days of Daniel 8:14. Once every case has been decided in the courtroom of heaven, Jesus will return with His rewards.

In Revelation 13, a second beast forces the whole world “to worship the first beast” by accepting “a mark on their right hand or … foreheads.” Comparing this mark to the seal that God places on the foreheads of His followers, we can know that these marks are symbols of one’s eternal allegiance.
