Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 14 refers to the seven sprinklings of blood in front of the Ark of the Covenant. It refers to the flesh suffering of the church of God together with Jesus. This is the last purification for the church of God to reach the flawless quality or perfection.

Revelation 14 is divided into three parts as follows:

  1. Verse 1-5 = the Church's following Jesus (It is explained in General Service in Malang, August 15,2021 until Prayer Service in Malang, October 14, 2021).
  2. Verse 6-13 = the judgment (It is explained in General Service in Malang, October 17,2021).
  3. Verse 14-20 = the harvest on earth.

We learn the second point, namely the judgement.

Revelation 14:12-13
14:12  Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
14:13  Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, "Write: 'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.'""Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them."

We try to avoid the punishment of God through "the patience of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus". Those are important. The meaning is that we must increase in spirituality from faith, hope, and love, up to the perfection (it is explained in Bible Study Service and Holy Communion in Malang, November 16, 2021).

The faith is written by James the apostle, the hope by Cephas the apostle, and the love by John the apostle.

Galatians 2:9
2:9  and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised(Israel).

Thus, the servant of God who has faith, hope, and love is like James, Cephas, and John who gave the right hand of fellowship.
It means that the servant of God who have faith, hope, and love will be employed in the revival of the building of the perfect body of Christ. It starts from marriage, shepherding, inter-shepherding, up to Israel and the Gentiles become one perfect body of Christ that is ready to greet the second coming of Jesus. We enter the Paradise and the New Jerusalem. We are freed from the punishment.

"the pillar" means that the servant of God who has faith, hope, and love will be employed as the pillar in the building of the body of Christ.

For that reason, we must worship God a lot and be watchful always for the following purposes:

  1. We become the pillar and never stop in ministry until we reach the New Jerusalem.
  2. We will not become the negative pillar as follows:


    • The pillar of salt like the wife of Lot.
      Genesis 19:26
      19:26 But his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

      Matthew 5:13
      5:13  "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

      The pillar of salt is the salt that loses its flavor.
      It means the servant of God without the anointing of Holy Spirit.

      The facts found in it as follows:

      • Losing heart = disappointment, despair, pride, up to denying God.
      • The deed are tasteless = disobedience.
        Luke 9:61-62
        9:61.And another also said, "Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house."
        9:62.But Jesus said to him, "No one, having put his hand to the plow, and
        looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God."

        "looking back" = unfaithfulness like the wife of Lot.
        If we are disobedient and unfaithful to God, our life loses its flavor.

      • The words are tasteless = the vain words, lie, gossip, slander, up to blasphemy to God or the true teaching word.

      If the salt loses its flavor, the results are as follows:


      • One cannot stand facing the decay.
        The cause of decay is the virus and the bacteria up to the peak, namely the worm of sin.
        It means living and enjoying in sins up to the peak that is the sins of eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage.

        The sign of enjoying in sins is that one gets angry when he is corrected. Such a life cannot be helped anymore. He is in decay. Be careful!

        If one decays, he will be employed in Babylon that will perish in hell.

      • Being thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.
        Matthew 5:13
        5:13  "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

        He will enter the persecution of the Antichrist for three and a half years. There are two possibilities that happen as follows:

        1. Being martyr. He refuses to worship the Antichrist, but he keeps worships Jesus even though he is tormented until beheaded. When Jesus comes a second time, he will be risen in the glorious body and he becomes the Bride of heaven. He redeems his life by his own blood.

        2. Receiving the sign from the Antichrist because one cannot stand the persecution. He will live comfortably in physical life, but when Jesus comes a second time, he will perish forever.


    • The gallows of Haman, fifty cubits high.
      Esther 7:9
      7:9  Now Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, said to the king, "Look! The gallows, fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good on the king's behalf, is standing at the house of Haman." Then the king said, "Hang him on it!"

      The number fifty refers to the Pentecost. Unfortunately, it was used for hanging Mordecai, the righteous man.

      It is the same as one without the anointing of Holy Spirit.
      The facts found in it are as follows:


      • Arrogance, being conceited, and looking for power.
        Esther 3:5-6
        3:5  When Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow or pay him homage, Haman was filled with wrath.
        3:6  But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him of the people of Mordecai. Instead, Haman sought to
        destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus--the people of Mordecai.

        Even though we have power, do not be powerful!
        Husband in household must not be powerful, but he must become the head who loves his wife. Wife or children must not be powerful, or else the household will be in chaos.

      • Verse 6 = hating the righteous man, or hatred without reason.
        Esther 3:13
        3:13  And the letters were sent by couriers into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to annihilate all the Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar, and to plunder their possessions.

        This is the prophecy of the mass murder in the age of the Antichrist.

      Thus, the gallows of Haman is the same as the Antichrist.
      Before, the pillar of salt has two possibilities. Here, the gallows of Haman will definitely become the same as the Antichrist who will be destroyed forever.

The way out is that we must reconcile with God and others.
Mark 9:50
9:50  "Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another."

Reconciling with God = confessing the sin to God.
Reconciling with others = confessing and forgiving the sin of each other.

If the peace happens with God and others, the blood of Jesus will wipe all our sins, so we will live in righteousness and experience the peace in heart. It is the place of Holy Spirit. We will experience the anointing of Holy Spirit abundantly.

The functions of Holy Spirit are as follows:

  1. Holy Spirit renews us from the carnal man to the spiritual one like Jesus, namely being strong and of good courage.

    Titus 3:5
    3:5  not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit,

    Being strong and of good courage means as follows:

    1. We are not disappointed or desperate or proud and do not deny God. We always give thanks to God.
    2. Being faithful and fervent in ministering to God.
    3. Being humble and obedient to the true teaching word. We do not commit any sin.
    4. We keep on worshiping, believing, and hoping to God whatever the risk may come. We never worship the Antichrist.

    This is the pillar.

  2. Holy Spirit is like the horses and chariots of fire all around us.
    2 Kings 6:16-17
    6:16  So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them."
    6:17  And Elisha prayed, and said, "LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see." Then the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold,
    the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

    The meanings are as follows:

    1. Holy Spirit is able to protect and care us who is small and powerless in the midst of the difficulties in the world until the age of the Antichrist. We will fly away to the wilderness. We will be cared by God directly. The Antichrist cannot see or touch us.

    2. Holy Spirit gives the victory over the enemies.
      2 Kings 6:21,23
      6:21  Now when the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, "My father, shall I kill them? Shall I kill them?"
      6:23  Then he prepared a great feast for them; and after they ate and drank, he sent them away and they went to their master. So the bands of Syrian raiders came no more into the land of Israel.

      All the problems are finished. We can love each other until we love those who are against us. We can repay the evil with kindness. Such a life will be surrounded by God.

      Holy Spirit gives the peace. Everything become easy and light.

  3. Holy Spirit is able to lift us up to heaven.
    2 Kings 2:11
    2:11  Then it happened, as they continued on and talked, that suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, and separated the two of them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.

    Holy Spirit is able to give the beautiful and successful future in the midst of impossibilities.

    Holy Spirit changes us to become perfect like Jesus is. When Jesus comes a second time, we will be lifted up to the glorious clouds with crying out "Alleluia". We enter the Paradise and the New Jerusalem. We are freed from the punishment. Day and night we worship God.

We need many things, but Holy Spirit will work for us.

God blesses us.
