Sermons From Revelation For Lent And Easter
In the last book of the Bible, John the elder has a great vision of the earth ending in subjection to God's will. He speaks of a great tribulation full of cataclysmic events, persecution, and suffering. It arrives gradually through the breaking of seven seals by the Lamb of God. But before the final seal is broken to usher in the terrible day of Lord's anger, the servants of God are sealed on their foreheads as a mark of their salvation, the ones who are allowed to stand before the Lord's wrath, numbering 144,000 of the tribes of Israel and more than can be counted from other nations.
