"RE: John B: 09.21.14: missing piece of the puzzle"


 
John B,
You had asked a question in your letter:

"Now....do you really believe that all these trillions of witnesses of this event in heaven and on earth would be this excited and elated if the seven seals and the scroll contained horrible judgments? Absolutely and definitely not !!!!!!!"

Well, later in the book they do:
Revelation 18:17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
 18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!
 19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
 20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.
 21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

Revelation 19:1 ¶ And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God:
 2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
 3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever.
 4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
 5 ¶ And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.
 6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
