나이 들어갈수록 드러나는 환상의 이미지

요한계시록 14:1-13

by 아이얼

나이 들어갈수록 요한계시록에 나타난 그 환상의 이미지를 보다 선명하고 구체적으로 그리고 느끼게 됩니다.

말씀이 소리로, 이미지로 나타나는 현상..

그래서 당시 늙은 사도요한은 이러한 환상적 기록물을 써 내려갈 수 있지 않았을까 싶습니다..


12. 성도들의 인내가 여기 있나니 그들은 하나님의 계명과 예수에 대한 믿음을 지키는 자니라

13. 또 내가 들으니 하늘에서 음성이 나서 이르되 기록하라 지금 이후로 주 안에서 죽는 자들은 복이 있도다 하시매 성령이 이르시되 그러하다 그들이 수고를 그치고 쉬리니 이는 그들의 행한 일이 따름이라 하시더라

#요한계시록14장


오늘은 이 말씀을 그려보며 내게 주어진 하루를 지키고 감당하겠습니다. 성령님 함께 하소서!

할렐루야~ 아멘!!

“Then I looked again and I saw the Lamb. He was standing on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. There were 144,000 people there with him. The Lamb's name and his Father's name were written on the front of those people's heads. Then I heard a loud sound which came from heaven. The noise was like water that pours along a river very fast. It was like the loud noise of thunder. The sound was like people who were making music with harps. The 144,000 people were singing a new song that they had learned. They sang it in front of the throne. They sang in front of the four beings that are alive and in front of the leaders. Only these 144,000 people could learn the new song. They are the people that God had saved from among the people who lived on the earth. These 144,000 people have kept themselves pure, as men who have never had sex with women. They follow the Lamb everywhere that he goes. God has saved them from among the people of the world and he has paid for their sins. They are the first people to become a gift to God and to the Lamb. They have not spoken any lies. They have done nothing wrong. Then I saw another angel who was flying high in the sky above me. He brought God's message of good news that is always true. He came to tell this news to everyone who lives on the earth. He would tell it to people from every nation, from every tribe and from every language. He said in a loud voice, ‘Respect God and give him honour! Now it is time for him to judge people. He made the sky and the earth and the sea. He also made the springs of water. So worship him!’ A second angel followed the first one. He said, ‘God has destroyed Babylon! It is no longer a great city! It has caused people everywhere to do the same bad things as it enjoys. She is like a prostitute who makes men become drunk and have sex in a wrong way. She has caused them to turn away from God.’ A third angel followed the other two angels. He said in a loud voice, ‘If anyone worships the wild animal and its idol, God will punish them. If anyone receives that animal's mark on their head or on their hand, God will punish them. God will be very angry with all those people. They will be like people who must drink God's strong wine. When they drink wine from the cup of God's anger, they will have terrible pain. Fire and sulphur will burn them. God's angels and the Lamb will watch while God punishes them. The smoke will rise for ever while they burn. They will have no rest during the day or during the night. This will happen to everyone who worships the wild animal and its image. It will happen to everyone who receives the mark which shows its name.’ This means that God's people must continue to be patient and strong. They must continue to obey God's rules. They must continue to trust Jesus. Then I heard a voice that spoke from heaven. It said, ‘Write this: From this time, people who continue to believe in the Lord and then they die will be very happy.’ God's Spirit says, ‘Yes, they will rest from their work. God will not forget the good things that they have done.’”
