REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Forty - Judges for a Thousand Years

Thrones -1444,000 of them-are prepared for these anointed conquerors who are "bought from among mankind as firstfruits to God and to the Lamb." (Revelation 14:4)  Yes, continues John, "I saw the souls of thsoe executed with the ax for the witness they bore to  Jesus and for speaking about God, and those who had worshiped neigther the wild beast nor its image and who had not received the mark  upon their foreheads or their hand." (Revelation 20:4b)  Among those kings, then, are the anointed Christian martyrs who earlier, at the opening of the fifth seal, asked Jehovah how long he would wait to avenge their blood. At that time, they were given white robe and told to wait a little longer.  But now they have been avenged through the devastation  of Babylon the Great, the destruction of the nations by the King of kings and Lord of lords, and the abyssing of Satan. - REVELATION 6:9-11; 17:16; 19:15, 16.
