Be Standing in the Sun

The first and second parts of the seventh and last heptad (group of sevens) of The Revelation show the quick and ultimate victory of King Jesus and His Church over the Beast and anti-christian world powers, philosophies, and religions on Judgment Day by the call and answer of fowls from heaven to eat the carcasses of the enemies after the battle of Armageddon, and by their enemies being thrown into the Lake of Fire to burn forever. The victory in the final battle is so swift and complete, that the annihilation of the anti-christian opposition in the world is almost anti-climatic. Two key OT allusions are explored to fully appreciate the meaning behind symbols of the text: 1 Samuel 17:44-54, and Ezekiel 39:1-4, 17-20. It all makes us glad to “Be Standing in the Sun”, vs. 17.
