"Angels We Have Heard On High"


 
John and Doves,
In Revelation 14: 6, 7
we see an angel flying through the heavens above with a strong pronouncement. 
He is warning the remaining people below to fear God.

My perception is that this takes place after the Midnight Rapture of the saints. Rev. 11:18.

Most interpreters translate "fear" as 'being in awe of God.'

While that is true, I think the proclamation here has a stronger meaning than that, and that is this:

1. To fear judgement in eternal fire.
"Fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul:
But rather fear HIM which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell."
Matthew 10:28. 

This being one of the final messages
that God is giving to mankind, it is one of supreme importance.
Gloria in Excelsis Deo!

If this angel is giving out a global warning to worship God, then there must be global authorities below crushing the assembling of people together in order to honor,  worship, and give Glory to God Almighty at this time.

We see that happening even now while we are outside of the Great Tribulation.
Governor Gavin Newsom of California has banned all church attendance, has banned all singing of worship songs
a n d has banned all home Bible studies and fellowshipping. 
Did he miss anything?

2. We are magnificently told that this circling angel:
A. will actually preach to us the Good  News (the Gospel) 

B. that God became man and dwelt amongst us;

C. that this 
God-Man-Jesus 
died in our place for our sins; 

D. that HE alone, Jesus, forgives our sins when we repent of them;   

E. that this same Jesus arose from the dead and is a Living real-time God; 

F. and that He gave us the Holy Spirit to live inside of us, and Who will bring Believers home to heaven, to live eternally with the 
God-head forever.

What Good News !!!!!
What refreshing knowledge to those who have never before heard--- or realized-- the Truth, the whole Truth, and nothing but the Truth.
What pure Hope and Joy for people being trodden under daily by cruel hopelessness.

A n d with a LOUD voice this messenger of God
reminds us to worship our Maker, Our Creator God.
"In the beginning God"...

What Mercy God shows to us in these few verses!
Here mankind is...abandoned by any righteous authorities, without places of worship, without any crosses, Bibles or any sign of the true God, having no fellowship or encouragement or example,
a n d yet our loving God parts the curtains of heaven and reveals to desperate man a clear message of hope.

Where are the haughty, arrogant men of pride who disdain God with their godless mandates!
Most likely they are loosening their loins by now as they are so boldly confronted. 
Daniel 5:6

The hour of His judgment is come!
