Revelation 19:19-21

The fall of the two wicked beasts Revelation 19:19-21: We have waited to see the war between the Lamb and the beasts and now it is all over. The beasts were ready for the war, but they were totally unable to fight against the Lamb. The beast and the false prophet were seized and overpowered. Those lead astray by the false prophet were stamped with the number 666. Now they are all hurled alive into the fiery lake that burns and blazes with brimstone.

Revelation 19:21 describes the downfall of the Roman Empire in general. "And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh." God's weapon of choice for this war was the sword that issued from His mouth. He that sat on the white horse is the Christ; and His sword is His word - the unadulterated Gospel. Satan is now losing all of his support. In Revelation twenty we will observe the fall of the Satan himself.

Christians who overcome the sorrows and tribulations of life will ultimately be in the very presence of God, and shall participate in the joys of heaven forever. The blood of the Lamb and the joy awaiting the redeemed should motivate us to obey God quickly. Those who obey the gospel are washed in the precious blood of Jesus. To obey the gospel one must hear the salvation message (Romans 10:17), believe in Jesus (John 8:24), repent of sins (Acts 17:30), confess Jesus as Lord and Christ (Acts 8:37), and be baptized to be saved. (1 Peter 3:21) Have you obeyed the Almighty? Obey now because tomorrow might be too late!
