“THE SEAL”

Revelation 1:3

Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

Note: Listening to the word, you get informed. When you believe and do something, you are transformed.

Revelation 9:4

And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

Luke 21:26 (The Powers of heaven will be shaken).

Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Matthew 24:21

For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

Revelation 12:12

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Acts 5:32 (The obedient are filled with the Holy Spirit).

And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

Note: Not having any feelings is being ignorant. Ignorance is the biggest sin. “Do not be ignorant”.

 

The Sin of Ignorance

 

It is expressly said, “That if any soul sin through ignorance, he shall bring a sin-offering” (Numbers 15:27, 28).

  1. Ignorance is a transgression of the law of God, for it is contrary to that knowledge which the law requireth: but every transgression is sin (1 John 3:4).
  1. Ignorance is a defect of that image of God, after which God at first created man; for knowledge was a part of that image (Colossians 3:10).
  1. Ignorance is the cause of many other sins (Galatians 4:8; 1 Timothy 1:13).
  1. Judgments are denounced against ignorance, as against a sin (Hosea 4:6; 2 Thessalonians 1:8).
  1. Ignorance is a punishment of other sins (Isaiah 6:10; John 12:40). Though ignorance be a sin, yet ignorant persons are here brought in as a fit object of compassion. Christ renders this ground of His praying for the Jews that had a hand in crucifying Him (Luke 23:34). And Peter allegeth it as a ground of His tendering mercy unto them (Acts 3:17). Ignorance is a spiritual blindness, so as they see not the dangerous course wherein they walk.

Revelation 1:7

Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
