Introduction

​
Special thanks and prayers to my godfather for his beautiful song.
​
Hi, my name is Claude Moreau
​
I want to tell you a bit of story.
​
Five years ago, I was in this exact spot, here in the cemetery crying. I wasn’t crying for the normal reasons that people cry in a cemetery, I was crying more out of a little bit of self pity, if you want. And this is basically my story. This is what happened five years ago. I was basically just informed the previous evening by fr. Peter from St. Augustine’s seminary, from the archdiocese of Toronto that I will not be invited to continue in my studies of theology to become a deacon. This was after one year of propaedeutic discernment for me to see if it is something that I want, to see if I am being called for this. Anyhow I really enjoyed my propaedeutic studies with my wife Lorraine. There were 24 other deacon couples, and we grew found of them and we really enjoyed it. But for some reason, God did not want me to continue in this path. So basically, I was crying partly because of that, but that wasn’t the only reason.
​
Here I am working as a caretaker in the cemetery, I pulled over in this vacant part of the cemetery so that I didn’t run over any stones because of my teary eyes. I was thinking God what do you want from me. I take this job working in the cemetery, I joined the deaconate trying to learn a little bit more about my faith, learn a little bit more about God; and that door was closed. I really just couldn’t comprehend. Later on, that day, I got a call from fr. Silvio Eluga the pastor of St. Anne’s church and he told me; “Claude maybe the church doesn’t need any deacons”. And that really wasn’t totally comforting to me because I knew that there were 24 other couples that were continuing. So, I was still a little bit loss, a little bit upset, and a little bit angry even. But later on, that day, God sent me a messenger. This messenger came in a red Toyota pickup truck. She may not think that she is a messenger but for me she was. She came to me from a conversation that we had previously, and she said: “Claude you’re going to be great at evangelizing.” And I couldn’t bring myself to telling her at that point that I wasn’t continuing at the deaconate, I’m not in theology, that door seemed closed. I just really didn’t see it.
​
Anyhow, I continued working at the cemetery, and as I was working at the cemetery, I found several young men born in my birth year, (1962) that passed away. Five in all, and I was born on May 5th and this number kind of resonated with me – five young men born in 1962. I thought wow, like what is God trying to tell me here, what is he trying to show me. Later on, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, intermediate prostate cancer. I thought well God is really sending me a message here that I need to get closer to him. I told him, God I’m not really ready, I thought I needed to know more. I thought maybe I should do a bible study. I heard of these bible studies, so I took the Jeff Cavins - Great Adventure Bible Timeline. And the week that we started our Great Adventure Bible Timeline COVID hit, the churches were locked down. And I was just furious. I thought, how come. How can this happen to me. What ended up happening is that I called Ascension Presents and they allowed us to have access to the bible timeline through recordings. Through video recordings. So, I said great. I organized it. I was basically the facilitator if you want, fr. Daniel was the host and we continued. We had 18 couples and I kept on basically preparing all of the work I found that the priest would always go into theology, which to me didn’t really always match exactly the written word. Anyhow, we finished that bible study and I felt quite fulfilled. It was great because it covered the three sets of fourteen generations from Abraham all the way to Jesus. Later on fr. Ram Babu, a young Indian priest from India approached me and said: “Claude how would you like to do a Bible Study.” I said that I just did one. He said that this one is different to which I replied. I think that they should all be the same, but I asked what is this one. He said Well this on is DR. Scott Hahn, its Genesis to Jesus. I said Ok lets do that. So, we did this one. I found it very informative but again a lot of information that basically tilted towards theology. That’s ok.
​
Later on, I decided that I’m going to go a little bit deeper. I thought that there was something missing. What was missing to me was a conclusion. I didn’t really feel fulfilled. I felt comfortable in the stories as they were stories that I already heard. Fifty years of going to church and hearing from the Old Testament and the New Testament and the readings. I kind of already new it all, or knew what they talked about. They helped to piece everything together, but I still thought that there was something missing. What was missing to me, was the conclusion. So, what I decided to do was with my 30 years of design, engineering, architectural, mechanical, aeronautical, and structural, that I am going to look at the details of the book of the apocalypse. The very last book of the bible.
​
I’d have conversations with the priests and they would say that, that is just erroneous theology. I would say that it is from the written word, its from sacred scripture. What’s wrong with what I’m seeing, with what I’m discerning. Bit by bit I started putting these together and I put together a book called the Custodian’s Guide to the Apocalypse. In that I found that in the very first chapter. Chapter 1 vs 3 "Blessed is he who reads and understands the words of this prophecy". In chapters two and chapter three, seven times you will see, "let he with an ear hear the words of this prophecy." You will hear do not add to this prophecy. Do not take away from this prophecy. It is very tight. It is very solid. Chapters 21-5 and 22-6 you will see “this prophecy is faithful and true”. Which means we can count on it. We can count on these things happening. It is just a matter of discerning what is the message behind it.
​
What I have done, is that I’ve written a book called “The Prequill”. It’s available on Amazon. What I have done is that I have pulled out the five warnings that are in the book of the apocalypse, that warn us of, basically an evil, seductive, corruptive force that is basically enticing us and causing us to fall away from God. From a corrupt government, to science fiction which is not necessarily telling us all of the truth, to a weak church. You will find all of these beings are prophesized in the book of the apocalypse and they are manifested in our lives today. My book "The Prequill" is available on Amazon, but I’m going to go through each chapter of the book of the Apocalypse starting with chapter one through to chapter twenty-two and go basically chapter by chapter and share with you, how I was basically brought to the realization of what we are facing in our lives today.
​
So, if you want to join me, welcome.

Welcome to the Apocalypse
The Book of the Apocalypse is a blessing and a gift from God for those who chose to follow him.
​Good evening.
My name is Claude Moreau, I am the Custodian
​
I have not been making videos lately because, I have been struck with a degenerative disease that has affected my appetite, my energy and my physical endurance. I have lost a lot of weight in a eight-week period. I am five foot eleven inches tall, and my standard weight was about 185 lbs, and I am presently at 140 lbs.
I have done numerous blood, urine and stool tests and at first, they have found nothing to be concerned about as my PSA was around 6. I went for an endoscope and a colonoscopy on June 6 and the surgeon found that my colon and my prostate are fine. She has found a large tumor in my stomach and has taken biopsies and has just confirmed for me that they are cancerous. I was scheduled for a CT scan on June 21 to see the extent of the growth and if other organs are affected. On Friday June 28, I received a call from my surgeon. The cancer is advanced with several limp nodes in my digestive track. It is non-operatable and therefore terminal. I have appointments with the Radiologist, the Medical Oncologist and Dietary specialist in the next week. They will look at ways to mitigate the pain and suffering. So far, besides a little discomfort and indigestion, I am fine.
​
I have been looking at some miracle cures that have left me wondering. Some look promising but then they resort to infomercials and celebrities to pitch and promote their product, without showing positive testimonies of success. A wise man, Dr George Berniosky once told me that actors are professional liars. Their career is based on convincing you that they are someone that they are not. If an infomercial is using an actor, you are probably being lied to as the success of the actor has nothing to do with what they are promoting.
I was introduced to a video called run from the cure. They promote medical marijuana and hemp oil with a few testimonies of recovered health. I thought, why not. After taking a grain sized drop of hemp oil from a trusted source I sat in my lazy boy chair and looked at the T.V. As I sat in front of the T.V. I found that my senses were awakened, and I was speaking more than usual and the details from the images on the T.V. were more detailed than usual. I was hallucinating. I passed out for a short while and when I woke up, I felt out of control. I was off balance and needed my wife Lorraine to support me while I walked to the washroom and my bedroom. I felt nauseous and began vomiting profusely. I could not stop for four hours and felt my lungs collapsing as my empty stomach kept heaving trying to push out the tumor that was in my stomach. I was suffocating and tried to pray the Lord’s prayer for comfort and had trouble finding the words. I asked Lorraine to help me, and we got through it. After a while I was able to catch some sleep and my stomach settled down. The person that introduced me to the video and the hemp oil had the best intentions however this is not an experience which I will attempt a second time.
​
Why do people fear death of their mortal bodies? We know that it is coming, but for some reason, we feel unprepared and fight it. I believe that it is because of the fear of the unknown. The truth lies in the bible; however, it has been hidden from us. It brings me to the time when Jesus is asleep in a boat with the apostles and a big storm came upon them. They were fearful for their lives and woke up Jesus in fear that they were going to drown. Jesus called them out for having little faith. Faith comes from knowledge. Knowledge comes from reading and understanding sacred scripture.
I have come across a few passages about health in the bible.
​
Ecclesiasticus 38:11-12
Give place to the physician. For the Lord created him.
​
This has put physicians in a position which they do not all deserve. We blindly follow the physicians to save our lives. Some people suggest that some day they’ll have a cure for all cancers. This goes against our creation of being mortal human beings.
This should be looked on with the following verse which qualifies the physician.
​
Ecclesiasticus 38:14
And they shall beseech the Lord, that he should prosper what they give for ease and remedy.
​
This shows us that physicians should pray and put their faith in God. Not all people that practice medicine are physicians in the eyes of the Lord.
​
St Matthew 16:25
For he that will save his life, shall lose it; and he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it.
​
We are always quick to ask for prayers for health and long life. We tend to run away from our mortal destinies and in that we fail to comprehend God’s will for our souls. Jesus died at 33 for a great cause, The salvation of our souls. He ascended to heaven which is our destiny should we choose it. We never know when we will be called to the Lord, and for this reason, we should always be prepared and not fear mortality.
​
St Luke 5:31
They that are whole, need not the Physician.
​
Sometimes a person being a sinner, may need a little more time to get themselves right with the Lord. Some people take this time of calling to understand the will of God while others fight to simply stay alive and chase a bucket list and others rush and take their lives before they are called.
I believe that it is important to live healthy lives, eat well and exercise which is getting more and more difficult with our busy lives. We have been conditioned to eat fast foods and snacks that have been heavily processed and cause damage to our bodies. The health care system does little to warn us of poor eating habits. There are many bible verses regarding the use of natural herbs for remedy.
I have recently put my notice at the church that I cannot continue working for them. I am not in any real pain, just discomfort that can be looked at as a bitter stomach. The apostle John went through a similar situation when he was writing about the seventh seal being opened.
​
The Apocalypse - Chapter 10:8-10 - The cry of the seventh mighty angel
And I heard a voice from heaven again speaking to me, and saying: Go, and take the book that is open, from the hand of the angel who standeth upon the sea, and upon the earth. And I went to the angel, saying unto him, that he should give me the book. And he said to me: “Take the book and eat it up: and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as honey. And I took the book from the hand of the angel, and ate it up: and it was in my mouth, sweet as honey: and when I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
​
I believe that the sweetness is in understanding that God is in control, and he is a just God who will reward all that have accepted him. We need to surrender to God. The bitterness is in knowing that there are many that will deny God and his great sacrifice regardless of our efforts to lead them to the truth.
​
The Apocalypse - Chapter 10:11
And he said to me: Thou must prophecy again to many nations, and peoples, and tongues and kings.
​
Short of a miracle, this will probably be my last video.
I listen to many podcasters, some fighting for truth in politics, some fighting for truth in faith. There is an evil trinity in effect that most people have missed. I believe that the message that I have received is deeper and has not been covered to its full capacity. I believe that this message is a message that was given to me, not to keep to myself, but to share. You can’t fix something if you do not know that it is damaged.
​
Some people have asked me if I have a bucket list?
Being a design engineer, I have designed a custom aluminum catamaran off a Stradbroke yacht out of Australia. Their yachts are 52 feet long. They come with hybrid diesel electric engines and the latest in electrical generation, Navionics, water purification and sail rigging. I increased the length to 55 ft with a ketch design, consisting of a mizzen mast, an extra meter on the keel with a telescopic 1100 lb boom crane to retrieve the dinghy, a larger convertible sun lounge to star gaze and a tool chest at the cockpit to help with repairs.
My wife and I have taken a live aboard sailing course and learned the basics of sailing which we both enjoyed. I have thought of sailing the world in my custom yacht with my wife. This may be a fun and exciting journey that may give joy to my mortal body, however It is materialistic and does not do anything for my eternal soul. This is the temptation of the world. There are unlimited choices to distract us from the reality that we are mortal and must someday face our ultimate destiny and pass through this portal into eternity. Have we made the right choices?
Jesus walked on water and had no need of Space X rockets to ascend to heaven and I have no need of a 55 ft custom yacht to follow Jesus. This is the ultimate journey that we will all face some day. The journey of our souls. Are we prepared?
​
I have spent 30 years as a design engineer in many different fields. I can honestly say that there is nothing on earth that tempts me away from following my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The thought of my soul spending an eternity in heaven as described in the Bible. This is the greatest journey. That as well as bringing as many people as possible with me. We spend our whole lives feeding our earthly desires to support our mortal bodies and no time thinking of our eternal souls. Some people would ask why would God deny you of your dreams? Perhaps because God, being the creator and our father knows what is best for us. Heaven is described as better than anything than we have ever experienced on earth, so why would we resist God’s call to join him? I believe that is the big question. Is heaven what it is said to be? Have we done everything that we need to do to enter the gates of heaven and find ourselves at the altar of God? Chapter 21:5 and 22:6 tell us that the prophecy is faithful and true. I have been blessed with a good life and visions that have shown me some of the beauty that awaits. We just need to get more familiar with sacred scripture to understand the will of God and follow what he teaches. Jesus tells us: “this is the day of the Lord, repent and believe in the gospel”. If we are right with God, we have no reason to fear.
​
My introduction video on my web site www.theprequill.org takes us for a ride through St Anne’s cemetery in Penetanguishene and the music stops, looking down towards what is known as the resurrection monument. The following is the inscription on the monument. “I AM THE RESSURECTION AND THE LIFE” St John 11:25
A better understanding of this message is found in the Gospel of Jesus according to St. John chapter 11 verses 25 and 26. This is where Jesus is speaking to Martha the sister of Lazarus.
The Gospel of Jesus according to St. John 11:25-26
“I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live: And everyone that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die forever.”
I have been studying scripture over the past five years spending a great deal of time looking at the book of the apocalypse. This is the final book in the bible. Some bibles call it the book of revelations. In my opinion, this is the most powerful book in the bible as it is our end time prophecy. This book is for everybody. It is for our Muslim brothers and sisters, our Jewish brothers and sisters, our Christian brothers and sisters and our Atheist brothers and sisters. We will all suffer the woes and plagues outlined therein regardless of our faiths and we will all be judged based on our acceptance of the sacrifice that God has provided through his only begotten son Jesus Christ.
I believe that this book is the greatest treasure in the bible. The more you understand the will of God, the more you will see the importance of trusting God, obeying God and following God. You will see that it is the only way to live in complete freedom, love and truth.
I have already prepared several videos that are available on my web site www.theprequill.org. I have also published a book available on Amazon entitled “The Prequill – Moreau”. The – Moreau may be required to find it as Amazon seems to be suppressing my work.
I will provide you with a five point summary of what I have grown to understand over my time of reflection studying the book of the Apocalypse.
The first point that I would like to make is that everybody should read the book of the apocalypse at least once a month. It can be read in one evening. It should become imbedded in your mind, so that it becomes a reflex action. Sort of like in the movie the karate kid. You should commit it to memory so that your soul will be awakened when an evil spirit crosses your path. It is like when you have seen a movie and then you see another movie with a similar plot. It will be familiar and your conscience will remind you, that you have seen this before. This will put you in a position to resist the temptation to follow evil. This is how you can prepare your soul for what we are facing in our world today.
I can tell you that I am comfortable with what I am facing with my health, because I know that God is with me. I first started to ask people for prayers. I then realized that I should have been more specific. I know where I am going. The only prayers that I need is in being strong in discerning the will of God and not to be distracted from my destiny. I realize now that the people that I have been asking for prayers need prayers themselves.
​
The Apocalypse 1:3
Blessed is he who reads and hears the words of the prophecy.
​
I have been blessed in reading, hearing and understanding the words of the prophecy of the book of the apocalypse. In understanding the book of the apocalypse, I have grown to understand the will of God, the temptations of the world and ultimately my salvation. I will try to share some of the highlights that I have discerned over the years.
​
The book of the apocalypse can be broken down into five major points.
​
The first point is covered in chapters one to three.
It involves accepting Jesus and building your faith and the church which is the bride of Christ according to the will of God. This is done by following the seven letters to the seven churches. Christianity is in trouble today because we have over 45 thousand divisions from people that have separated from the church of Christ to form their own churches. Reflecting on the seven letters will allow you to see where your church may need help in returning to its roots. The key is in repentance.
​
The next four points are highlighted in chapters four to six.
This is an amazing section as it shows the altar of God. It also shows the highlights of what is to come in the apocalypse. The highlights are shown as the four horsemen that are called out by the four living creatures at the altar of God to come and see. Each horseman highlights the four stages of the apocalypse which are described in the subsequent chapters.
​
Chapter four describes the throne of God. This is also described in the prophecy of Ezechiel. The two accounts of the altar of God from the prophet Ezechiel and the apostle John although a little different from one another has helped me to understand the details and the reality of its existence. They are both describing the same altar that they have witnessed with their own eyes.
​
Chapter five shows that only Jesus was worthy to release the prophecy to mankind. No other faith has this end time prophecy. Only by accepting Jesus can a person be brought to the truth and save their souls.
​
Chapter 6 shows the interaction of the four living creatures at the altar of God and the four horsemen that are called out to come and see. When chapter four describes the altar of God, it does not mention the four horsemen. The four horsemen are not at the altar of God in the prophecy of Ezechiel nor in the account of the apostle John. The horsemen are the souls of the people on earth that are called out to fight for truth. These are the four highlights of the apocalypse that affect us. The first three are the woes that are put on mankind. The fourth is the wrath of God and the angel of death that will remove sin from the world in the battle of Armageddon. The final battle between good and evil.
​
Let us begin.
The Apocalypse 6:2
A white horse, and he that sat on him had a bow, and there was a crown given him, and he went forth conquering that he might conquer.
​
This was the first woe. This was the pandemic that swept across the world attacking all races and nations.
​
The Apocalypse 9:5
And it was given to them that they should not kill them; but that they should torment them five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when he striketh a man.
​
A scorpion has front claws that restrict the movement of its prey and then the scorpion injects its prey with venom. On October 2021 people were in lock downs and told that they needed to get vaccinated or lose their jobs. On February 2022 people’s souls were awaked as we saw the freedom convoy in the middle of Canada’s cold white winter drive their transport trucks to the nation’s capital to protest. This awakened the souls of the people into action. This is the power of the white horsemen that stopped the mandates after five months of torment as prophesied in the bible.
​
The Apocalypse 13:5
And there was given to him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemies: and power was given to him to do two and forty months.
​
This is the 7 headed beast of the sea (the G7 leaders following the W.H.O. and the W.E.F) with the lock downs, the vaccines and the tracking using QR codes during the pandemic. According to the W.H.O. The pandemic started in December 2019 and lasted until May 2023 which is 42 months as prophesied in the Apocalypse.
​
The Apocalypse 6:4
A red horse, and to him that sat thereon, it was given that he should take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another, and a great sword was given to him.
​
This is the second woe. The details can be discerned from apocalypse 9:13 to apocalypse 11:13 This is the war between Russia and Ukraine. Russia wants to prevent his sister Ukraine from joining the globalist ideology from the W.E.F. and NATO that has infiltrated the G7 governments. On June 13 of this year the G7 got together to re-enforce Ukraine with American made F16 fighter jets and money from the trade sanctions that they imposed on Russia. The great sword that is keeping people in line is the use of hypersonic ICBM nuclear missiles which Russia possesses. We are helping to fund a war against a Christian nation which possess nuclear power, without understanding the implications. We are trusting the same people that have corrupted our governments, damaged our economies and our healthcare, closed our churches and given us bad science to make decisions on peace negotiations. Like misbehaving children, the G7 leaders should have been grounded after the pandemic response. We are allowing them to put us in the path of nuclear war. We need to pray for peace.
We may or may not prevent or survive a nuclear war, however we can save our eternal souls by accepting Jesus. Repent and believe in the Gospel.
​
The Apocalypse 6:5
A black horse, and he that sat on him had a pair of scales in his hand.
​
This is telling of a great famine.
​
The Apocalypse 11:14
The second woe is past: and behold the third woe will come quickly.
​
The third woe is a world famine that will come quickly because of a nuclear war and the lost of many people and farms that provide food for the nations. AI will be offered to control the world and its remaining resources. AI is cold, heartless and has no soul. We will be tested to maintain our faith in Jesus and resist the mark of the beast.
The Apocalypse 6:8
A pale horse, and he that sat upon him, his name was death, and hell followed him. And power was given to him over the four parts of the earth, to kill with sword, with famine, and with death, and with the beast of the earth.
​
This is the wrath of God, that will take away all the sin of the world. The three evil spirits: the red dragon, the beast of the sea and the false prophet will be no more. The great harvest of the Lord where 1600 stadia up to a horse’s bridle will be filled with the blood from the winepress of the wrath of God. This is like 1600 Olympic size hockey rinks up to the side boards. It would take approximately 1.2 billion people to realize this amount. This shows that there is much sin in the world that needs to be cleansed. God says vengeance is mine. He will save us from the wickedness.
Those that have accepted Jesus will be brought to the new heaven and the new earth as prophesied in chapters 21 and 22. This is the destiny that God wants for us. The three evil spirits like frogs have clouded this vision from us.
The red dragon, the beast of the sea and the false prophet. This is the final battle of Armageddon, the battle between good and evil.
The church has been infiltrated by the red dragon and we have been conditioned to obey him with false teachings. The throne is not in Rome. The magisterium is the bride, which we are to love, honor and cherish. We should be obeying Jesus who is on the proper throne in heaven. Jesus is the bridegroom which we are to love honor and obey.
Our governments have been corrupted by the W.E.F. into following a global ideology of one government, one economy and one religion without God. This is the beast of the sea that demands that we trust them as we have elected them. We are to trust Jesus who is Lord and King.
Science has seduced us with many innovations that have made life on earth a little more comfortable but has enslaved us in debt to enjoy these fleeting temporary luxuries. We are told to follow the science. We should be following Jesus.
We trust, obey and follow human principalities who are all imposters that we have chosen over God. For us to be free and live in peace, truth and love we need only trust, obey and follow Jesus who is the only King and Lord over humanity. We need to follow the truth.
Some people believe that the traditional Latin mass is in a schism against the Catholic Faith. Archbishop Marcel Lefaive was a loyal servant of God and the holy mass. He knew that he was stepping over the line when he appointed 4 bishops. Why did he do it? He asked the magisterium to help him to appoint some bishops to carry out the traditional mass. After several rejections he was given a choice of conscience. Should he allow the traditional mass to simply die with him or should he push himself pass his capabilities and appoint some bishops. This was a difficult decision for him as well as many of the laity and priests of the traditional mass to this day. In his interview he says that if it is in God’s will, it will prosper and if not, it will die. The SSPX has prospered with many vocations to the priesthood. They are like the church of Philadelphia in chapter three in the book of the Apocalypse. They are small but strong in faith being spared the temptations of the world as they are led in truth.
​
Jesus reprimanded his apostles when they told him that they forbade some people from doing miracles in his name. It wasn’t right for the apostles, and it is certainly not right for the pope, cardinals and bishops today to stop the traditional mass. The mass responsible for most of the known saints.
​
I love the Catholic church; however, I feel that in its silence it is not guiding people to the truth. The silence has put the church in darkness. It was once a strong flourishing church before it took on the modern views of Vatican II, accepted the Novus Ordo mass, and the political visions of today.
I have been baptized in the Traditional Latin Rite. When I pass, I wish my final funeral celebration to be in the Traditional Latin Rite. God does love the details of this most holy mass.
I would like to finish this video with a special 5-part prayer for all of the confused and lost souls.
It consists of the Lord’s prayer; three Hail Mary prayers and a Glory be.
The Lord’s prayer because he is Lord and King
Three Hail Mary’s, because
First - As a young virgin, she accepted the message of an angel in accepting to be mother of our Lord and Savior.
Second - She raised Jesus and was present for his great passion, sacrifice and resurrection.
Third - She is the new covenant that can intercede for us to her son Jesus Christ. The Ark of the Covenant carried the law (the Ten Commandments), the bread of life (manna) and the priesthood (Aaron’s rod). She also carried all three in her womb as she is the mother of Jesus who is the law, the bread of life and the highest priest.
And finally, the Glory be, because all is for the trinity of God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
​
Our Father, who art in heaven
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come; thy will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from Evil.
Amen
​
Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou among women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary, mother of God
Pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen
​
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost. AMEN
​
Thank you and God bless you and your families!
​

Life, Chess and Armageddon​
​
-
What I forgot to teach my children about chess and life.
Chess is very much like life. Each player has its own distinct responsibility and function.
The pawns are the citizens.
The castles represent wealth and power.
We will use Elon Musk as the leader of science and technology. He is leading the world with Tesla, Space X, The Borring company, A.I. and Twitter-X.
We will use his new brand X to represent the castles.

The knights enforce diplomatic law – The G7 global leaders imposed mandates on their citizens during the pandemic. We couldn’t travel, go to school, or keep our jobs unless we were vaccinated and took the QR code that went with it. They were following the unelected World Health Organization W.H.O.
We will use the QR code to represent the knights.

​
The bishops represent the church.
The formation of the Catholic church and its priests is the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) which was edited at the request of seven synod diocesan Bishops. – It was accepted by the CCCB - Conference of Canadian Catholic Bishops – Conference d’Evêques Catholique Canadien and other bishops around the world.
We will use the CCCB/CECC emblem to represent the bishops.

The queen represents the free will of the people.
In 2019 the Canadian mint on behalf of the government minted 3 million of these coins to honor the 50 years of inclusivity of the LGBTQ.
We will use this coin to represent the queen.

And finally, the king. Our democratic leaders are following outside influences like the World Economic Forum (W.E.F.) and the World Health Organization (W.H.O.)
The Canadian Government along with six other global leaders form the G7 a group of countries that are following un-elected global powers.
We will use the W.E.F. emblem to represent the king.

We are living in troubled times. Many people do not recognize the depths that we have fallen. The governments are no longer trusted, science is questioned, the church is weak, morality is compromised, and unelected globalists such as the W.E.F., the W.H.O., and other wealthy philanthropists are making decisions for the world. We have seen during the pandemic that the globalist unelected leaders were forcing all nations to follow an agenda claiming that they were following the science, however no scientific research was gathered or shown. People are starting to question; did they do the right thing.
The leaders were labelling any opposing values as conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories come from man and lacks conviction as they may or may not happen. These were not mere conspiracies as they were prophecies that have been documented in 87 A.D. Prophesies come from God and are faithful and true. We can count on them.
When kingdoms and democratic governments follow God, people lived in peace and freedom. The kingdoms and democracies that oppose God and the freedom given to people collapse. They are in direct conflict with the free will that God has created us with. It goes against human nature. Without this freedom there is an imbalance that becomes evident to the people who resist this false authority.
We can trace the first royal kingdoms from the tribes of Israel which fled Egypt. The first royal king was Saul, then David (David and Golliath) and then Solomon (wisest and most prosperous of all kings). We then had divided kingdoms. These royal kingdoms were to follow God. And when they did, the kingdom including the people lived in peace, prosperity and freedom.
When kingdoms fell away from God we find that the people ultimately lost their freedom to serve the false authority of the king. When kingdoms or democracies force an unnatural authority over the people it causes rebellion. People no longer trusted kingdoms that overtaxed their people and kingdoms were eventually replaced by democracies. The feeling was that if the people elected their government, they can trust them. The elected politicians are elected to serve its people. We see that there is abuse of this power where our freedoms are lost because of bad government that want to control the people for their own greed and power.
Who are these new players that have infiltrated our government, our churches, science and technology, our freedom and our way of life?
This is where understanding the book of the apocalypse comes into play.
Apocalypse 13:18
Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man: and the number of him is six hundred sixty-six. (666)
Not everybody is going to see it right away, however the beast carries his number on all that he does.
What about Elon Musk and his new twitter – X brand
Elon amazed us by bringing rockets from space - fire down from heaven in the book of the apocalypse.
Elon has created the Tesla robot and A.I. - Gave a voice to his creation in the book of the apocalypse.
He is quoted as saying:
“I don’t have an immediate doomsday prophecy, but eventually, history suggests that there will be some doomsday event. The alternative is to become a space-bearing civilization and a multi-planet species”. He is a false prophet confusing the vision given to us in scripture with an alternate vision of space exploration where the bible calls it heaven. People are too quick to forget what happened to the space shuttle program where Challenger and Columbia and all seven of their respective crew members disintegrated. This was 2 out 5 shuttles within 168 missions.
Can he be the beast with horns like a lamb as prophesied in the book of the apocalypse?
When I was a young boy, I was visiting my cousins on a farm and there was a small goat tied to a tree. I approached the goat and it put its head down. I thought it was cute like a puppy dog, so I approached to pet it. The last thing that I saw was that this little goat had tiny horns protruding from the top of its head (It was a ram). It lunged forward and butt me in the forehead knocking me on my backside. Lambs are like goats; the ones with horns will ram you. I knew then that I did not trust goats or lambs with horns no matter how innocent and cute they may be. Elon Musk has this innocence. He succeeds at everything, so people give him complete confidence in all that he does. He is the manifestation of the beast with horns like a lamb which is prophesied in the book of the apocalypse.
His X emblem and can be reconfigured to show overlapping 6 6 6.

Can the G7 be the beast of the sea with seven heads as prophesied in the bible?
The G7 governments at the time of the pandemic were forcing closures, mandates and control, citing that we need to follow the science. Canada imposed lockdowns and closed transportation lines and tried to initiate the Arrive-CAN APP with QR codes. All the G7 countries were in-sync trying to do the same thing. One thing that stood out to me was that these QR codes had three ominous squares. They say that they are needed for focusing. This is a deception. I once worked in an R&D facility where we were designing point of sale system that used QR codes that did not require the three squares. These QR codes had a vertical and horizontal line, which are still used today. When you look closely you will find that the squares measure 7 pixels by 7 pixels and the inside square is the value counting 3x3 pixels equals 9 or blank for zero. 6 is a square measuring 2.45 x 2.45 pixels. The (passeport sanitaire) from France that is shown here has the number 6 6 6. The G7 is the manifestation of beast of the sea with seven heads which was prophesied in the book of the apocalypse.

The CCC is the formation of the priest and bishops today.
Can the CCCB/CECC be the red dragon with seven heads that was cast out of heaven?
The Emblem on the CCC is CCCB which stands for Conference of Canadian Catholic Bishops – Conference d’Evêques Catholique Canadien.
It has a disclaimer that has been missed by the bishops and the priests, in Pope John Paul II letter contained within.
Jesus entrusted St Peter to be the head of the church. One head. This has always been clear.
The CCC may have come from the Vatican however it is not from the pope.
This is the disclaimer that I have found in the CCC. Pope John Paul II tells us that he did not write it and he did not request it.
“In 1986, I entrusted a commission of twelve Cardinals and Bishops, chaired by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, with the task of preparing a draft of the catechism requested by the Synod Fathers. An editorial committee of seven diocesan Bishops, experts in theology and catechists, assisted the commission in its work”.
The CCCB or CECC has their own label.
It is not what is in the CCC. It is what is missing.
They have removed sin, repentance, the wrath of God and the Apocalypse. Basically, the warning to mankind. Our golden treasure to salvation.
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
The CCCB/CECC has …
6 x C = 6
Roman Numeral C = 100, 6 x 100 = 600
Cross value of 10, If C cross = 10, 6 x 10 = 60
Total = 666
This gives us a total of 666.
The CCCB is the manifestation of the red dragon with seven heads which was cast down from heaven as prophesied in the book of the apocalypse.
Our governments support the LGBTQ.
Can she be the harlot that seduces mankind as prophesied in the bible?
In 2019 the Canadian mint produced 3 million of these inclusivity coins, promoting the 50th anniversary of the LGBTQ movement.
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
She seduces people into following a life of sin. Anybody that parades in sin instead of repenting will be judged in the last days. Their claim to fame is inclusivity. They are all denouncing God, natural order and creation in their fight for inclusivity.
We need to love our neighbors, not encourage them to be damned in the last days. The harlot comes riding in on the back of the beast. She is supported by the kings of the world, as we have seen with the Canadian Prime minister and other leaders who parade with them. The Harlot will be gone when the kings stop supporting her. She is manifested in our lives today and prophesied in the book of the apocalypse.
​
Our governments follow the W.E.F., the W.H.O., and other unelected world organizations and leaders that aim at controlling the world, without God.
Can the W.E.F. and the W.H.O. be the king of the bottomless pit as prophesied in the bible?
Who are they? W.E.F., The World Economic Forum (W.E.F.), The World Health Organization (W.H.O.), and wealthy philanthropist. They are unelected global leaders that decide what is good for us behind closed doors. They are using false authority to control the people. They are in allegiance with the king from the bottomless pit. They are against the Christian family. We need to follow the true king, Jesus who will shepherd the people to a world of truth, love, peace, harmony, and prosperity.
The king of the bottomless pit is manifested in our lives today and is prophesied in the book of the apocalypse. The W.E.F. have a sickle suspended through their logo. When the sickle is brought up and touches the left side of the bottom O we can see that it forms 6 6 6 with the other letters.

So, there you have it. Five great coincidences. Five leading world authorities in science, politics, faith, morality and world domination that carry the mark of the beast.
I cried for understanding and the truth and the Holy Spirit gave it to me. What was I to do now. When I tried sharing it with people, they thought that I was a lunatic. That I have become extreme. That I was a fanatic. That I was a doomsday prophet. I was told to stop focusing on these things and enjoy my life. I do enjoy my life and I am very pleased to see my destination.
I love what Candice Owens says. She’s an amazing woman of high intellect and morals who fights for truth and freedom. She says that if you knew that there was a venomous snake in your neighbor’s back yard, would you not let them know.
The book of the Apocalypse is the end time prophecy for all of mankind. It shows us that we have one common enemy, Satan, who is after our souls. The book of the apocalypse is for our Muslim brothers and sisters, it is for our Jewish brothers and sisters, it is for our Christian brothers and sisters, and it is even for our Atheist brothers and sisters. There is no other warning. This is it. Only the sacrificed lamb of God (Jesus) was worthy to release it to mankind through the apostle John.
God is father to all. If you are a father, you know that it brings you pain when your children are in conflict. We are commanded to Love God and Love our neighbors.
There are three types of Atheist in the world.
The first have not been introduced to God. They are waiting to be introduced.
The second know God but oppose him.
The third replaced God with idols and false gods.
Atheists are not new, they go all the way back to the Egyptians. The Egyptians were not the first people on the planet. Adam and Eve were God’s first human creation, and they knew God. The Egyptians chose to denounce God the creator and they created their own gods. Their empires failed as all the atheist empires have in the past and will continue to fail in the future if they oppose God. It simply does not work for the good of the people who are created in God’s image. We are created with a soul. These Atheist empires may serve our earthly appetites but have no room for our souls which are eternal.
To recall atheist history that have collapsed, we need to remember this simple five word sentence: Eat A Big Purple GRape.
E is for Egypt, A is for Assyrians, B is for Babylon, P is for Persia, G is for Greece and R is for Rome.
These empires all fell because they were atheist and opposed God.
So what is the importance of these 5 creatures that I have laid out and their symbols. They all have the mark of the beast 666. Which we are commanded to resist.
This is what the people that work towards these abominations can expect. Receiving the character in your forehead or in your hand, implies accepting the vision in your mind or putting your efforts towards the work.
Apocalypse 14:9-12
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice: If any man shall adore the beast and his image, and receive his character in his forehead, or in his hand;
10 He also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mingled with pure wine in the cup of his wrath, and shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the sight of the holy angels, and in the sight of the Lamb.
11 And the smoke of their torments shall ascend up for ever and ever: neither have they rest day or night, who have adored the beast, and his image, and whoever receiveth the character of his name.
If you feel that you have received the mark of the beast, you must repent to save your soul. This is saying sorry to God. Only the true apostolic church maintains the sacrament of reconciliation. This is the power to bind and to loose sins that was given to the apostles by the Holy Spirit.
Adam and Eve had their warning: Do not eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil. They sinned by disobeying God and they did not repent. Adam blamed Eve and Eve blamed the serpent. Repenting did not exist yet as the lamb of God has not been sacrificed. Through Jesus, who is the lamb of God, we are given the opportunity to repent because of his blood that was spilled for us. By recognizing this and repenting we are forgiven.
The Israelites were given the ten commandments to follow. In the early days people obeyed the ten commandments or were punished. Some with death.
We are given the book of the apocalypse to warn us. Not to destroy the beast or to judge it, but to recognize it and to resist it. We created the beast through our disobedience to God. We use to swear on a Holy Bible in a court of law to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The Atheists have infiltrated our institutions and made us ashamed of voicing our commitment and Love for God.
We need to pray for all our brothers and sisters of all nations and all races that have been seduced to follow Satan and pray for the convergence of their souls so that they too can be accepted into heaven. We need to pray for Elon Musk and all people of power and authority, for our political leaders, for our bishops and priests, and for our brothers and sisters that have been seduced to parade in sin. We need to pray that they wake up to see the king of the bottomless pit and turn their devotion to our Lord and Savior. This is what the God of Abraham, the God of Judah and God of Jesus Christ wants from all of mankind.
Thank you for joining me this week as we looked at the importance of reading, hearing, and understanding the book of the Apocalypse. I hope that it has ignited your soul and given you a glimpse of the truth contained in the book of the Apocalypse.
Please join me next time as we unveil chapter 2 of the book of the apocalypse and the first set of letters to the first four churches.
Our Father.
Who art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses.
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory, forever and ever
Amen.
The Tower of Armageddon
I am not a Dr. of Theology.
I am not a deacon, priest, bishop or cardinal.
I am simply the custodian of St Anne s R.C. church in Penetanguishene
which is part of the archdiocese of Toronto.
I prayed for the truth and the Holy spirit has blessed me with understanding
the book of the Apocalypse of St. John the divine apostle of Jesus Christ.
The Apocalypse of St. John the Apostle
In the first, second, and third chapters of this Book are contained instructions and admonitions which St. John was commanded to write to the seven bishops of the churches in Asia. And in the following chapters. to the end, are contained prophecies of things that are to come to pass in the church of Christ, particularly towards the end of the world, on the time of Antichrist. It was written in Greek, in the Island of Patmos, where St. John was in banishment by order of the cruel emperor Domitian, about sixty-four years after our Lord s Ascension.
Chapter 1
Were you blessed to read and hear the words of the prophecy?
Did you keep the word that is written?
THE Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,
2 Who hath given testimony to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, what
things soever he hath seen.
3 Blessed is he, that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those
things which are written in it; for the time is at hand.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace from him that is, and that was, and that is to come, and from the seven spirits which are before his throne,
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth, who hath loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father, to him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also that piecred him. And all the tribes of the earth shall bewail themselves because of him. Even so. Amen.
8 “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
9 I John, your brother and your partner in tribulation, and in the kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island, which is called Patmos, for the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus.
10 I was in the spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard
behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
11 Saying: “What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which are in Asia, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia,
and to Laodicea”.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
13 And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
14 And his head and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire,
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two edged sword: and his face was as the sun shineth in his power.
17 And when I had seen him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying: Fear not. “I am the First and the Last
18 And alive, and was dead, and behold I am living for ever and ever, and have the keys of death and of hell.
19 Write therefore the things which thou hast seen, and which are, and which must be done hereafter.
20 The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.

Are you prepared for the battle of Armageddon?
Chapter 2
Do you have an ear to hear what the Spirit says to the churches?
Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write:
These things saith he, who holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks:
2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them that are evil, and thou hast tried them, who say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
3 And thou hast patience, and hast endured for my name, and hast not fainted.
4 But I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first charity.
5 Be mindful therefore from whence thou art fallen: and do penance, and do the first works. Or else I come to thee, and will move thy candlestick out of its place, except thou do penance.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaites, which I also hate.
7 He, that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches: To him, that overcometh, I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.
​
​
8 And to the angel of the church of Smyrna write:
​
These things saith the First and the Last, who was dead, and is alive:
9 I know thy tribulation and thy poverty, but thou art rich: and thou art blasphemed by them that say they are Jews and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer. Behold, the devil will cast some of you into prison that thou may be tried: and you shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful until death: and I will give thee the crown of life.
11 He, that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches: He that shall overcome, shall not be hurt by the second death.
​
​
12 And to the angel of the church of Pergamus
write:
​
These things, saith he, that hath the sharp two edged sword:
13 I know where thou dwellest, where the seat of Satan is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith. Even in those days when Antipas was my faithful witness, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
14 But I have against thee a few things: because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat, and to commit fornication:
15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaites.
16 In like manner do penance: if not, I will come to thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches: To him that overcometh, I will give the hidden manna, and will give him a white counter, and in the counter, a new name written, which no man knoweth, but he that receiveth it.
​
18 And to the angel of the church of Thyatira write:
These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like to a flame of fire, and his feet like to fine brass.
19 I know thy works, and thy faith, and thy charity, and thy ministry, and thy patience, and thy last works which are more than the former.
20 But I have against thee a few things: because thou sufferest the woman Jezabel, who calleth herself a prophetess, to teach, and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat of things sacrificed to idols.
21 And I gave her a time that she might do penance, and she will not repent of her fornication.
22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed: and they that commit adultery with her shall be in very great tribulation, except they do penance from their deeds.
23 And I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am he that searcheth the reins and hearts, and I will give to every one of you according to your works, But to you I say.
24 And to the rest who are at Thyatira: Whosoever have not this doctrine, and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I will not put upon you any other burden.
25 Yet that, which you have, hold fast till I come.
26 And he that shall overcome, and keep my works unto the end, I will give him power over the nations.
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron, and as the vessel of a potter they shall be broken.
28 As I also have received of my Father: and I will
give him the morning star.
29 He that hath and ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.

Chapter 3
Directions what to write to the angels of Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.
AND to the angel of the church of Sardis, write:
These things saith he, that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, that thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead.
2 Be watchful and strengthen the things that remain, which are ready to die. For I find not thy works full before my God.
3 Have in mind therefore in what manner thou hast received and heard: and observe, and do penance. If then thou shalt not watch, I will come to thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come to thee.
4 But thou hast a few names in Sardis, which have not defiled their garments: and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy.
5 He that shall overcome, shall thus be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6 He that have an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
7 And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia, write:
These things saith the Holy One and the true one, he that hath the key of David; he that openeth, and no man shutteth; shutteth, and no man openeth:
8 I know thy works. Behold, I have given before thee a door opened, which no man can shut: because thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Behold, I will bring of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do die. Behold, I will make them to come and adore before thy feet. And they shall know that I have loved thee.
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon the whole world to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
12 He that shall overcome, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God; and he shall go out no more; and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, and my new name.
13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
​
14 And to the angel of the church of Laodicea, write:
These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, who is the beginning of the creation of God.
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold, nor hot. I would thou wert cold, or hot.
16 But because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, nor hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest: I am rich, and made wealthy, and have need for nothing: and
knowest not, that thou are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold fire tried, that thou mayest be made rich; and mayest be clothed in white garments, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not appear; and anoint thy eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 Such as I love, I rebuke and chastise. Be zealous therefore, and do penance.
20 Behold, I stand at the gate, and knock. If any man shall hear my voice, and open to me the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that shall overcome, I will give to sit
with me in my throne: as I also have overcome, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.
Chapter 4
The vision of the throne of God, the twenty-four ancients, and the four-living creatures.
AFTER these things I looked, and behold a door was opened in heaven, and the first voice which I heard, as it were, of a trumpet speaking with me, said: Come up hither, and I will shew thee the things which must be done hereafter.
2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and behold there was a throne set in heaven, and upon the throne one sitting.
3 And he that sat, was to the sight like jasper and the sardine stone; and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats; and upon the seats, four and twenty ancients sitting, clothed in white garments, and on their heads were crowns of gold.
5 And from the throne proceeded lightnings, and voices, and thunders; and there were seven lamps burning before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God.
6 And in the sight of the throne was, as it were, a sea of glass like crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind.
7 And the first living creature was like a lion: and the second living creature like a calf: and the third living creature, having the face, as it were, of a man: and the fourth living creature was like an eagle flying.
8 And the four living creatures had each of them six wings; and round about and within they are full of eyes. And they rested not day and night, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is to come.
9 And when those living creatures gave glory, and honour, and benediction to him that sitteth on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever;
10 The four and twenty ancients fell down before him that sitteth on the throne, and adored him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying:
11 Thou art worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory, and honour, and power: because thou hast created all things; and for thy will they were, and have been created.
Chapter 5
The book sealed with seven seals is opened by the Lamb, who thereupon receives adoration and praise from all.
AND I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne, a book, written within and without, sealed with seven seals.
2 And I saw a strong angel, proclaiming with a loud voice: Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 And no man was able, neither in heaven, nor on earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look on it.
4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open the book, nor to see it.
5 And one of the ancients said to me: weep not; behold the lion of the tribe of Juda, the root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 And I saw: and behold in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the ancients, a Lamb standing as it were slain, having seven horns and seven eyes: which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.
7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.
8 And when he had opened the book, the four living creatures, and the four and twenty ancients fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints:
9 And they sung a new canticle, saying: Thou art worthy, O Lord, to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; because thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God, in thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation,
10 And hast made us to our God a kingdom and priests, and we shall reign on the earth.
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne, and the living creatures, and the ancients; and the number of them was thousands of thousands,
12 Saying with a loud voice: The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power, and divinity, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and benediction
13 And every creature, which is in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them: I heard all saying: To the Lamb, benediction, and honour, and glory, and power, for ever and ever.
14 And the four living creatures said: Amen. And the four and twenty ancients fell down on their faces, and adored him that liveth for ever and ever.
Chapter 6
What followed upon opening six of the seals.
AND I saw that the Lamb had opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures, as it were the voice of thunder, saying: Come, and see.
2 And I saw: and behold a white horse, and he that sat on him had a bow, and there was
a crown given him, and he went forth conquering that he might conquer.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature, saying: Come, and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and to him that sat thereon, it was given
that he should take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another, and a great sword was given to him.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying: Come, and see. And behold a black horse, and he that sat on him had a pair of scales in his hand.
6 And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying: Two
pounds of wheat for a penny, and thrice two pounds of barley for a penny, and see thou hurt not the wine and the oil.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living
creature, saying: Come, and see.
8 And behold a pale horse, and he that sat upon
him, his name was Death, and hell followed him. And power was given to him over the four parts of the earth, to kill with sword, with famine, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
9 And when he had opened the fith seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held.
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying: How long, O Lord (holy and true) dost thou not judge and revenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given to every one of
them one; and it was said to them, that they should rest for a little time, till their fellow servants, and their brethren, who are to be slain, even as they, should be filled up
12 And I saw, when he had opened the sixth seal, and behold there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sack-cloth of hair: and the whole moon became as blood:
13 And the stars from heaven fell upon the earth, as the fig tree casteth its green figs when it is shaken by a great wind:
14 And the heaven departed as a book folded up: and every mountain, and the islands were moved out of their places.
15 And the kings of the earth, and the princes, and tribunes, and the rich, and the strong, and every bondman, and every freeman, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of mountains:
16 And they say to the mountains and the rocks: Fall upon us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth upon the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb.
17 For the great day of their wrath is come, and who shall be able to stand?
Chapter 7
The number of them that were marked with the seal of the living God, and clothed in white robes.
AFTER these things, I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that they should not blow upon the earth, nor upon the sea, nor on any tree.
2 And I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the sign of the living God; and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 Saying: Hurt not the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees, till we sign the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them that were signed, an hundred forty-four thousand were signed, of every tribe of the children of Israel.
5 Of the tribe of Juda, were twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Ruben, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand signed:
6 Of the tribe of Aser, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Nephthali, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Manasses, twelve thousand signed:
7 Of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand signed:
8 Of the tribe of Zabulon, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand signed: Of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand signed.
9 After this I saw a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne, and in the sight of the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying: Salvation to our God, who sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and the ancients, and the four living creatures; and they fell down before the throne upon their faces, and adored God,
12 Saying: Amen. Benediction, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, honour, and power, and strength to our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the ancients answered, and said to me: These that are clothed in white robes, who are they? And whence came they?
14 And I said to him: My Lord, thou knowest. And he said to me: These are they who are come out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and have made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve him day and night in his temple: and he, that sitteth on the throne, shall dwell over them.
16 They shall no more hunger nor thirst, neither shall the sun fall on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb, which is in the midst of the throne, shall rule them, and shall lead them to the fountains of the waters of life, and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
Chapter 8
The seventh seal is opened: the angels with the seven trumpets.
AND when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven, as it were for half an hour.
2 And I saw seven angels standing in the presence of God; and there were given to them seven trumpets.
3 And another angel came, and stood before the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer of the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar, which is before the throne of God.
4 And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints ascended up before God from the hand of the angel.
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it on the earth, and there were thunders and voices and lightnings, and a great earthquake.
6 And the seven angels, who had the seven trumpets, prepared themselves to sound the trumpet.
7 And the first angel sounded the trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast on the earth, and the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
8 And the second angel sounded the trumpet: and as it were a great mountain, burning with fire, was cast into the sea, and the third part of the sea became blood:
9 And the third part of those creatures died, which had life in the sea, and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded the trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, burning as it were a torch, and it fell on the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters:
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 And the fourth angel sounded the trumpet, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day did not shine for a third part of it, and the night in like manner.
13 And I beheld, and heard the voice of one eagle flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice: Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth: by reason of the rest of the voices of the three angels, who are yet to sound the trumpet.
Chapter 9
Locusts come forth from the bottomless pit: the vision of the army of horsemen.
AND the fifth angel sounded the trumpet, and I saw a star fall from heaven upon the earth, and there was given to him the key of the bottomless pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit: and the smoke of the pit arose, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke of the pit.
3 And from the smoke of the pit there came out locusts upon the earth. And power was given to them, as scorpions of the earth have power:
4 And it was commanded them that they should
not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree: but only the men who have not the sign of God on their foreheads.
5 And it was given unto them that they should not kill them; but that they should torment them five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when he striketh a man.
6 And in those days men shall seek death, and shall not find it: and they shall desire to die, and death shall fly from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle: and on their heads were, as it were, crowns like gold: and their faces were as the faces of men.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women; and their teeth were as lions:
9 And they had breastplates as breastplates of iron, and the noise of their wings was as the noise of chariots and many horses running to battle.
10 And they had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails; and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had over them.
11 A king, the angel of the bottomless pit; whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek Apollyon; in Latin Exterminans.
12 One woe is past, and behold there come yet two woes more hereafter.
13 And the sixth angel sounded the trumpet; and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar, which is before the eyes of God,
14 Saying to the sixth angel, who had the trumpet: Loose the four angels, who are bound in the great river Euphrates.
15 And the four angels were loosed, who were
prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year: for to kill the third part of men.
16 And the number of the army of horsemen was twenty thousand times ten thousand: And I heard the number of them.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision: and they that sat on them, had breastplates of fire and of hyacinth and of brimstone, and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions: and from their mouths proceeded fire, and smoke, and brimstone.
18 And by these three plagues was slain the third part of men, by the fire and by the smoke and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
19 For the power of the horses is in their mouths, and in their tails. For, their tails are
like to serpents, and have heads: and with them they hurt.
20 And the rest of the men, who were not slain by these plagues, did not do penance from the works of their hands, that they should not adore devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and wood, which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
21 Neither did they penance from their murders, nor from their sorceries, nor from their fornication, nor from their thefts.
Chapter 10
The cry of a mighty angel: he gives John a book to eat.
AND I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud , and a rainbow was on his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire.
2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot upon the earth.
3 And he cried with aloud voice as when a lion roareth. And when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me: Seal up the things which the seven thunders have spoken; and write them not.
5 And the angel, whom I saw standing upon the sea and upon the earth, lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 And he swore by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things which are therein; and the earth, and the things which are in it; and the sea, and the things that are therein: That time shall be no longer.
7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound the trumpet, the mystery of God shall be finished, as he hath declared by his servants the prophets.
8 And I heard a voice from heaven again speaking to me, and saying: Go, and take the book that is open, from the hand of the angel who standeth upon the sea, and upon the earth.
9 And I went to the angel, saying unto him, that he should give me the book. And he said to me: Take the book, and eat it up: and it shall make my belly bitter, but in my mouth it shall be sweet as honey.
10 And I took the book from the hand of the angel, and ate it up: and it was in my mouth,
sweet as honey: and when I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.
11 And he said to me: Thou must prophesy again to many nations, and peoples, and tongues, and kings.
Chapter 11
He is ordered to measure the temple: the two witnesses.
AND there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and it was said to me: Arise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar and them that adore therein.
2 But the court, which is without the temple, cast out, and measure it not: because it is given unto the Gentiles, and the holy city they shall tread under foot two and forty months.
3 And I will give unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophecy a thousand two hundred sixty days clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks, that stand before the Lord of the earth.
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire shall come out of their mouths, and shall devour their enemies. And if any man will hurt them, in this manner must he be slain.
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with all plagues as often as they will.
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast, that ascendeth out of the abyss, shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8 And their bodies shall lie in the streets of the great city, which is called spiritually, Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord also was crucified.
9 And they of the tribes, and peoples, and tongues, and nations, shall see their bodies for three days and a half: and they shall not suffer their bodies to be laid in sepulchres.
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry: and shall send gifts one to another, because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt upon the earth.
11 And after three days and a half, the spirit of life from God entered into them. And they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon them that saw them.
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven, saying to them: Come up hither. And they went up to heaven in a cloud: and their enemies saw them.
13 And at the hour there was made a great
earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell: and there were slain in the earthquake names of men seven thousand: and the rest were cast into a fear, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe is past: and behold the third woe will come quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded the trumpet: and there were great voices in heaven, saying: The kingdom of this world is become our Lord’s and his Christ’s, and he shall reign for ever and ever. Amen.
16 And the four and twenty ancients, who sit on their seats in the sight of God, fell on their faces and adored God, saying:
17 We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, who art, and who wast, and who art to come: because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and thou hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest render reward to thy servants the prophets and the saints, and to them that fear thy name, little and great, and shouldest destroy them who have corrupted the earth.
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven: and the ark of his testament was seen in his temple, and there were lightnings, and voices, and an earthquake, and great hail.
Chapter 12
The vision of the woman clothed with the sun: and of the great dragon her persecutor.
AND a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And being with child, she cried travailing in birth, and was in pain to be delivered.
3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads, and ten horns: and on his heads seven diadems:
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered; that, when she should be delivered, he might devour her son.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with an iron rod: and her son was taken up to God, and to his throne.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, that there they should feed her a thousand two hundred sixty days.
7 And there was a great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels:
8 And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And that great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, who seduceth the whole world; and he was cast unto the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying: Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: because the accuser of our brethren is cast forth, who accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of his testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death.
12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you that dwell therein. Woe to the earth, and to the sea, because the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman, who brought forth the man child:
14 And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman, water as it were a river; that he might cause her to be carried away by the river.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river, which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
18 And he stood upon the sand of the sea.
Chapter 13
Of the beast with seven heads: and of a second beast.
AND I saw a beast coming out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads names of blasphemy.
2 And the beast, which I saw, was like to a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his own strength, and great power.
3 And I saw one of his heads as it were slain to death: and his death’s wound was healed. And all the earth was in admiration after the beast.
4 And they adored the dragon, which gave power to the beast: and they adored the beast, saying: who is like the beast? And who shall be able to fight with him?
5 And there was given to him a mouth speaking great things, and blasphemies: and power was given to him to do two and forty months.
6 And he opened his mouth unto blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. And power was given him over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth adored him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb, which was slain from the beginning of the world.
9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that shall lead into captivity, shall go into captivity: he that shall kill by the sword, must be killed by the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
11 And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns, like a lamb, and he spoke as a dragon.
12 And he executed all the power of the former beast in his sight; and he caused the earth, and them that dwell therein, to adore the first beast, whose wound to death was healed.
13 And he did great signs, so that he made also fire come down from heaven unto the earth in the sight of men.
14 And he seduced them that dwell on the earth, for the signs, which were given him to do in the sight of the beast, saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make the image of the beast, which had the wound by the sword, and lived.
15 And it was given him to give life to the image of the beast, and that the image of the beast should speak; and should cause, that whosoever will not adore the image of the beast, should be slain.
16 And he shall make all, both little and great, rich and poor, freemen and bondmen, to have a character in their right hand, or on their foreheads.
17 And that no man might buy or sell, but he that hath the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man: and the number of him is six hundred sixty-six.
Chapter 14
Of the Lamb, and of the virgins that follow him. Of the judgements that shall fall upon the wicked.
AND I beheld, and lo a lamb stood upon mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty-four thousand, having his name, and the name of his father, written on their foreheads.
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the noise of many waters, and as the voice of great thunder; and the voice which I heard, was as the voice of harpers, harping on their harps.
3 And they sung as it were a new canticle, before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and the ancients; and no man could say the canticle, but those hundred forty-four thousand who were purchased from the earth.
4 These are they who were not defiled with women: for they are virgins. These follow the Lamb withersoever he goeth. These were purchased from among men, the firstfruits to God and to the Lamb:
-
And in their mouth there was found no lie; for
are without spot before the throne of God.
6 And I saw another angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the eternal gospel, to preach unto them that sit upon the earth, and over every nation, and tribe, and tongue, and people:
7 Saying with aloud voice: Fear the Lord, and give him honour, because the hour of his judgement is come; and adore ye him, that made heaven and earth, the sea, and the fountains of waters.
8 And another angel followed, saying: That great Babylon is fallen, is fallen: which made all nations to drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice: If any man shall adore the beast and his image, and receive his character in his forehead, or in his hand;
10 He also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is mingled with pure wine in the cup of his wrath, and shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the sight of the holy angels, and in the sight of the Lamb.
11 And the smoke of their torments shall ascend up for ever and ever: neither have they rest day or night, who have adored the beast, and his image, and whoever receiveth the character of his name.
12 Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying to me: Write: Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord. From henceforth now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; for their works follow them.
14 And I saw, and behold a white cloud; and upon the cloud one sitting like to the Son of man, having on his head a crown of gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 And another angel came out from the temple crying with a loud voice to him that sat upon the cloud: Thrust in thy sickle, and reap, because the hour is come to reap: for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust his sickle into the earth, and the earth was reaped.
17 And another angel came out of the temple which is heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
18 And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire; and he cried with a loud voice to him that had the sharp sickle, saying: Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vineyard of the earth; because the grapes thereof are ripe.
19 And the angel thrust in his sharp sickle into the earth, and gathered the vineyard of the earth, and cast it into the great press of the wrath of God:
20 And the press was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the press, up to the horses’ bridles, for a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
Chapter 15
They that have overcome the beast, glorify God. Of the seven angels with the seven vials.
AND I saw in heaven, great and wonderful; seven angels having the seven last plagues. For in them is filled up the wrath of God.
2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire, and them that had overcome the beast, and his image, and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having the harps of God:
3 And singing the canticle of Moses, the servant of God, and the canticle of the Lamb, saying: Great and wonderful are thy works, O Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, O King of ages.
4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and magnify thy name? For thou art holy: for all nations shall come, and shall adore in thy sight, because thy judgements are manifest.
5 And after these things I looked; and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:
6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed with clean and white linen, and girt about the breasts with golden girdles.
7 And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden vials, full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.
8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the majesty of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.
Chapter 16
The seven vials are poured out: the plagues that ensue.
AND I heard a great voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels: Go, and pour out the seven vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth, and there fell a sore and grievous wound upon men, who had the character of the beast; and upon them that adored the image thereof.
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea, and there came blood as it were of a dead man; and every living soul died in the sea.
4 And the third poured out his vial upon the rivers and the fountains of waters; and there was made blood.
5 And I heard the angel of the waters saying: Thou art just, O Lord, who art, and who wast, the Holy One, because thou hast judged these things:
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.
7 And I heard another, from the altar, saying: Yea, O Lord God Almighty, true and just are thy judgments.
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun, and it was given unto him to afflict men with heat and fire:
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who hath power over these plagues, neither did they penance to give him glory.
10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom became dark, and they gnawed their tongues for pain:
11 And they blasphemed the God of heaven, because of their pains and wounds, and did not penance for their works.
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon that great river Euphrates; and dried up the water thereof, that a way might be prepared for the kings from the rising of the sun.
13 And I saw from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth
of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs.
14 For they are the spirits of devils working signs, and they go forth unto the kings of the whole earth, to gather them to battle against the great day of the Almighty God.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.
16 And he shall gather them together into a place, which in Hebrew is called Armagedon.
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial upon the air, and there came a great voice out of the temple from the throne, saying: It is done.
18 And there were lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and there was a great earthquake, such an one as never had been since men were upon the earth, such and earthquake, so great.19 And the great city was divided into three parts; and the cities of the Gentiles fell.
19 And great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the indignation of his wrath.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21 And great hail, like a talent, came down from heaven upon men: and men blasphemed God for the plague of the hail: because it was exceeding great.
Chapter 17
The description of the great harlot, and of the beast upon which she sits.
AND there came one of the seven angels, who had the seven vials, and spoke with me, saying: Come, I will shew thee the condemnation of the great harlot, who sitteth upon many waters,
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication; and they who inhabit the earth, have been drunk with the wine of her whoredom.
3 And he took me away in spirit into the desert.
And I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was clothed round about with purple and scarlet, and gilt with gold, and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand, full of the abominations and filthiness of her fornication.
5 And on her forehead a name was written: A mystery; Babylon the great, the mother of fornications, and abominations of the earth.
6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And I wondered, when I had seen her, with great admiration.
7 And the angel said to me: Why dost thy wonder? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast which carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8 The beast, which thou sawest, was, and is not, and shall come in out of the bottomless pit, and go into destruction: and the inhabitants on the earth (whose names are not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world) shall wonder, seeing the beast that was, and is not.
9 And here is the understanding that hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven montains, upon which the woman sitteth, and they are seven kings:
10 Five are fallen, one is, and the other is not yet come: and when he is come, he must remain
a short time.
11 And the beast which was, and is not: the same also is the eighth, and is of the seven, and
goeth into destruction.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest, are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom,
but shall receive power as kings one hour after the beast.
13 These have one design: and their strength and power they shall deliver to the beast.
14 These shall fight with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them, because he is Lord of lords, and King of kings, and they that are with him are called, and elect, and faithful.
15 And he said to me: The waters which thou
sawest, where the harlot sitteth, are people, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest in the
beast; these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her with fire.
17 For God hath given into their hearts to do that which pleaseth him: that they give their
kingdom to the beast, till the words of God be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest, is the great city, which hath kingdom over the kings of the earth.
Chapter 18
​The fall of Babylon, Kings and merchants lament over her
AND after these things, I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power: and the earth was enlightened with his glory.
2 And he cried out with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen; and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every unclean spirit, and the hold of every unclean and hateful bird:
3 Because all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication; and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her; and the merchants of the earth have been made rich by the power of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Go out from her, my people; that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and the Lord hath remembered her iniquities.
6 Render to her as she also hath rendered to you; and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup wherein she hath mingled, mingle ye double unto her.
7 As much as she hath glorified herself, and lived in delicacies, so much torment and sorrow give ye to her; because she saith in her heart: I sit a queen, and am no widow; and sorrow I shall not see.
8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine, and she shall be burnt with the fire; because God is strong, who shall judge her.
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication, and lived in delicacies with her, shall weep, and bewail themselves over her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning:
10 Standing afar off for fear of her torments, saying: Alas! Alas! That great city Babylon, that mighty city: for in one hour is thy judgement come.
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep, and mourn over her: for no man shall buy their merchandise any more.
12 Merchandise of gold and silver, and precious stones; and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner of vessels of ivory, and all manner of vessels of precious stone, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble,
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14 And the fruits of the desire of thy soul are departed from thee, and all fat and goodly things are perished from thee, and they shall find them no more at all.
15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich, shall stand afar off from her, for fear of her torments, weeping and mourning,
16 And saying: Alas! alas! that great city, which was clothed with fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and was gilt with gold, and precious stones, and pearls.
17 For in one hour are so great riches come to nought; and every shipmaster, and all that sail into the lake, and mariners, and as many as work in the sea, stood afar off,
18 And cried, seeing the place of her burning, saying: What city is like to this great city?
19 And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying: Alas! alas! That great city, wherein all were made rich, that had ships at sea, by reason of her prices: for in one hour she is made desolate.
20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath judged your judgement on her.
21 And a mighty angel took up a stone, as it were a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying: With such violence as this shall Babylon, that great city, be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22 And the voice of harpers, and of musicians, and of them that play on the pipe, and on the trumpet, shall no more be heard at all in thee; and no craftsman of any art whatsoever shall be found any more at all in thee; and the sound of the mill shall be heard no more at all in thee;
23 And the light of the lamp shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth, for all nations have been deceived by thy enchantments.
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
Chapter 19
The saints glorify God for his judgements on the great harlot.
Christ’s victory over the beast, and the kings of the earth.
AFTER these things I heard as it were the voice of much people in heaven, saying: Alleluia. Salvation, and glory, and power is to our God.
2 For true and just are his judgements, who hath judged the great harlot which corrupted the earth with her fornication, and hath revenged the blood of his servants, at her hands.
3 And again they said: Alleluia. And her smoke ascendeth for ever and ever.
4 And the four and twenty ancients, and the four living creatures fell down and adored God that siteth upon the throne, saying: Amen; Alleluia.
5 And a voice came out from the throne, saying:
Give praise to our God, all ye his servants; and you that fear him, little and great.
6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of great thunders, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord our God the Almighty hath reigned.
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give glory to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath prepared herself.
8 And it is granted to her that she should clothe herself with fine linen, glittering and white. For the fine linen are the justifications of saints.
9 And he said to me: Write: Blessed are they that are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And saith to me: These words of God are true.
10 And I fell down before his feet, to adore him. And he saith to me: See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren, who have the testimony of Jesus. Adore God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called faithful and true, and with justice doth he judge and fight.
12 And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many diadems, and he had a name written, which no man knoweth but himself.
13 And he was clothed with a garment sprinkled with blood; and his name is called, THE WORD OF GOD.
14 And the armies that are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white
and clean.
15 And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp two edged sword; that with it he may strike the nations. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God the Almighty.
16 And he hath on his garment, and on his thigh written: KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that did fly through the midst of heaven: Come, gather yourselves together to the great supper of God:
18 That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of tribunes, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all freemen and bondmen, and of little and of great.
19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war with him that sat upon the horse, and his army.
20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet, who wrought signs before him, wherewith he seduced them who received the character of the beast, and who adored his image. These two were cast alive into the pool of fire, burning with brimstone.
21 And the rest were slain by the sword of him that sitteth upon the horse, which proceedeth out of his mouth; and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
Chapter 20
Satan is bound for a thousand years. The souls of the martyrs’ reign with Christ in the first resurrection.
The last attempts of Satan against the church: the last judgement.
AND I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit, and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.
3 And he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should no more seduce the nations, till the thousand years be finished. And after that, he must be loosed a little time.
4 And I saw seats; and they sat upon them; and judgement was given unto them; and the souls of them that were beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and who had not adored the beast nor his image, nor received his character on their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 The rest of the dead lived not, till the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection. In these the second death hath no power; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ; and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 And when the thousand years shall be finished, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, and shall go forth, and seduce the nations, which are over the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, and shall gather them together to battle, the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
8 And they came upon the breadth of the earth, and encompassed the camp of the saints, and the beloved city.
9 And there came down fire from God out of heaven, and devoured them; and the devil, who seduced them, was cast into the pool of fire and brimstone, where both the beast
10 And the false prophet shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
11 And I saw a great white throne, and one sitting upon it, from whose face the earth and heaven fled away, and there was no place found for them.
12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing in the presence of the throne, and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged by those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and hell gave up their dead that were in them, and they were judged every one according to their works.
14 And hell and death were cast into the pool of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life, was cast into the pool of fire.
Chapter 21
The New Jerusalem described.
AND I saw a new heaven and a new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth was gone, and the sea is now no more.
2 And I John saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice from the throne, saying: Behold the tabernacle of God with men, and he will dwell with them. And they shall be his people; and God himself with them shall be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and death shall be no more, nor mourning, nor crying, nor sorrow shall be any more, for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat on the throne, said: Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me: Write, for these words are most faithful and true.
6 And he said to me: It is done. I am Alpha and Omega; the beginning and the end. To him that thirsteth, I will give of the fountain of water of life, freely.
7 He that shall overcome shall possess these things, and I will be his God; and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, they shall have their portion in the pool burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
9 And there came one of the seven angels, who had the vials full of the seven last plagues, and spoke with me, saying: Come, and I will shew thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb.
10 And he took me up in spirit to a great and high mountain: and he shewed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God.
11 Having the glory of God, and the light thereof was like to a precious stone, as to the jasper stone, even as crystal.
12 And it had a wall great and high, having twelve gates, and in the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 On the east, three gates: and on the north, three gates: and on the south three gates: and on the west, three gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them, the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he that spoke with me, had a measure of a reed of gold, to measure the city and the gates thereof, and the wall.
16 And the city lieth in a foursquare, and the length thereof is as great as the breadth; and he measured the city with the golden reed for twelve thousand furlongs, and the length and the height and the breadth thereof are equal.
17 And he measured the wall thereof an hundred forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is of an angel.
18 And the building of the wall thereof was of jasper stone: but the city itself pure gold, like to clear glass.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper, the second, sapphire: the third, a chalcedony: the fourth, an emerald:
20 The fifth, sardonyx: the sixth, sardius: the seventh, chrysolite: the eighth, beryl: the ninth, a topaz: the tenth, a chrysoprasus: the eleventh, a jacinth: the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, one to each: and every several gate was of one several pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple therein. For the Lord God Almighty is the temple thereof, and the Lamb.
23 And the city hath no need of the sun, nor of the moon, to shine in it. For the glory of God hath enlightened it, and the Lamb is the lamp thereof.
24 And the nations shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates thereof shall not be shut by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 There shall not enter into it any thing defiled, or that worketh abomination or maketh a lie, but they that are written in the book of life of the Lamb.
Chapter 22
The water and tree of life. The Conclusion.
AND he shewed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the lamb.
2 In the midst of the street thereof, and on both sides of the river, was the tree of life, bearing twelve fruits, yielding its fruits every month, and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no curse any more; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall serve him.
4 And they shall see his face: and his name shall be on their foreheads.
5 And night shall be no more: and they shall not
need the light of the lamp, nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God shall enlighten them, and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6 And he said to me: These words are most faithful and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to shew his servant the things which must be done shortly.
7 And, Behold I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book.
8 And I John, who have heard and seen these things. And after I had heard and seen, I fell down to adore before the feet of the angel, who shewed me these things.
9 And he said to me: See thou do it not: for I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them that keep the words of the prophecy of this book. Adore God.
10 And he saith to me: Seal not the words of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11 He that hurteth, let him hurt still: and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is just, let him be justified still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.
12 Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to render to every man according to his works.
13 I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
14 Blessed are they that wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb: that they may have a right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.
15 Without are dogs, and sorcerers, and unchaste, and murderers, and servers of idols, and every one that loveth and maketh a lie.
16 I Jesus have sent my angel, to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and stock of David, the bright and morning star.
17 And the spirit and the bride say: Come. And he that heareth, let him say: Come. And he that thirsteth, let him come: and he that will, let him take the water of life, freely.
18 For I testify to every one that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book: If any man shall add to these things. God shall add unto him the plagues written in this book.
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from these things that are written in this book.
20 He that giveth testimony of these things, saith, Surely I come quickly: Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
