The Message Of The Angel

Message of the Angel - Revelation 14
"And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his Judgment is come; and worship him that made heaven and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. " (Revelation 14:6, 7.)


We call this the first angel, because John calls it "another angel, " from the fact that he had previously seen an angel flying through the midst of heaven, after the fourth angel had sounded, announcing the last three trumpets as woe trumpets. See Revelation chapter 8:13. " So John saw another angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people. Rev. 14:6. The burden of this angel was to be the same gospel which had been before proclaimed; in addition the message is showing the proximity of the kingdom - "saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his Judgment is come; and worship him that made heaven and earth, and the seas, and the fountains of waters. 

Christ is coming the second time, with power unto salvation. To prepare us for this event is the message of this angel. This angel represents those who receive the truth, and with power open the gospel to the world. 

Why Are The Messages Of Revelation 14 given? 
God has given us these messages because he sees that the principles of the churches have become corrupted. (Revelation 14:6-10). The prophet sees some who are not worshiping the beast, and who have not received his mark in their foreheads or in their hand. "here is the patience of the saint," he declares, "here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." (Revelation 14:12-20)

Giving Glory To God
In order to give glory to God we must reveal his character in our own lives, and then make him known to others. Therefore whatever way you make known the Father or the Son, you glorify God.

Worship Him That Made Heaven And Earth, The Seas And Fountains Of Water
The world has disregarded the only commandment which points out the true God, and has torn down the Sabbath, God's memorial of creation. 

God made the world in six days and rested on the seventh, sanctifying this day, and setting it apart from all others as holy to Himself, to be observed by His people throughout their generations.

Thus the heavens and the earth were completed and all the hosts. (the hosts of heaven refers to the sun, moon and stars.) By the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.…(Genesis 2:1-2).

God has a controversy with the churches today, they are fulfilling the prophecy of John, "All nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication." they have divorced themselves from God by refusing to receive His sign. (Ezekiel 20:20) Keep my Sabbaths holy, that they may be a sign between us. Then you will know that I am the LORD your God." The people of the world in giving their sanction to a false Sabbath, (Sunday) and in trampling under their feet the Sabbath of the Lord, have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. (Revelation 14:8).

The Sabbath question will be the issue in the great conflict of this world, yes my friend, all the world will act a part in this great drama. (revelation 13:4-8) this entire chapter is a revelation of what will surely take place. (Revelation 13:11; 15-17). 


Give him your hearts today friends, He is faithful, and He is able to save all who come to him. for he ever lives to make intercession for you.
