In time, the message of this scroll also became sweet to "the great crowd . . . out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues" who were found to be sighing on account of the destestable things they saw being done in Christendom. (Revelation 7:9; Ezekiel 9:4) These too, vigorously proclaim the good news, using sweet, gracious words to describe Jehovah's marvelous provision for sheeplike Christians. Psalm 37:11, 29; Colossians 4:6) But to goatlike people, this is bad news? Why? It means that the system in which they trust-and which may even have brought them a transitory satisfaction-must go. For them, the good news spell doom. - MATTHEW 25:31-34, 41, 46; compare Deuteronomy 28:15; 2 Corinthians 2:15, 16.
