REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Thirty EIght - Happy Are Those Invited - Continue

 The angel adds that "these are the true sayings of God." This word "true" translates the Greek A-le-thi-os' and means "genuine"  or  "dependable."  Since these sayings are really from Jehovah, they are faithful and reliable.  (Compare John 4:1-3;  Revelation 21:5; 22:6.) As one invited  to that marriage feast, John must have been filled with Joy at hearing this and at contemplating the blessings ahead for the bride class. He was so deeply moved, in fact, that the angel had to give him counsel, as John relates: "At that I fell down before his feet to worship him. But he tells me: 'Be careful! Do not do that! All I am is a fellow slave of  you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing to Jesus.  Worship God.' " - REVELATION 19:10a.
