Revelation 5

 

***

 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne

a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

² And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice,

Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

³ And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth,

was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

⁴ And I wept much,

because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

⁵ And one of the elders saith unto me,

Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David,

hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

⁶ And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts,

and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain,

having seven horns and seven eyes,

which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

⁷ And he came and took the book

out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

⁸ And when he had taken the book,

the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb,

having every one of them harps,

and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

⁹ And they sung a new song, saying,

Thou art w o r t h y to take the book,

and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain,

and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood

out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

¹⁰ And hast made us unto our God kings and priests:

and we shall reign on the earth.

¹¹ And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne

and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was

ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

¹² Saying with a loud voice,

Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power,

and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

¹³ And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth,

and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying,

Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power,

be unto him that sitteth upon the throne,

and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

¹⁴ And the four beasts said, Amen.

And the four and twenty elders fell down

and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

GOD’S WONDERFUL PLAN OF SALVATION

~

 

 

**********

Acts 16:30-31

”Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

And they said,

“Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,

and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”

**********

***

Romans 10:8-13

But what saith it?

The word is nigh thee,

even in thy mouth,

and in thy heart:

that is,

the word of faith, which we preach;

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth

the Lord Jesus,

and shalt believe in thine heart

that God hath raised Him from the dead,

thou shalt be saved.

For with the heart man believeth unto

righteousness;

and with the mouth confession is made unto

salvation.

For the scripture saith,

Whosoever

believeth on Him

shall not be ashamed.

For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek:

for the same Lord over

ALL

is rich unto

ALL

that call upon Him.

For whosoever shall CALL upon the NAME of the Lord

SHALL BE SAVED.

**********

***

 

 

The plan of salvation is simple.

Believe that the Lord Jesus Christ,

died for your sins and rose again from the dead.

Ask Him to forgive you of your sins.

Invite Him into your heart to be the Savior of your soul.

**********

**********

**********

When you’re crying yourself to sleep,

know that Jesus is lending His shoulder to you.

When you’re pushed to the ground,

know that Jesus is holding out His hands to you.

When you feel like dying,

know that Jesus died to let you live.

When you feel like no one loves you,

know that Jesus loves you more than you can imagine.
