Peaceful or scary???
After this I looked and there was a door that had been opened in heaven. The first voice that I had heard, which sounded like a trumpet, said to me, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” 2 At once I was in a Spirit-inspired trance and I saw aContinue reading “Peaceful or scary???”
Hallelujah
After this I heard what sounded like a huge crowd in heaven. They said, “Hallelujah! The salvation and glory and power of our God!His judgments are true and just, because he judged the great prostitute, who ruined the earth by her whoring, and he exacted the penalty for the blood of his servants from her hand.” Then they saidContinue reading “Hallelujah”

Then I saw another great and awe-inspiring sign in heaven. There were seven angels with seven plagues—and these are the last, for with them God’s anger is brought to an end. 2 Then I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mixed with fire. Those who gained victory over the beast, its image, andContinue reading “Song of Moses and the Lamb”
River of life
Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb through the middle of the street of the city.

They cried out in a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God whoContinue reading “White robes…”
