Your Wrath Has Come

John is asked to measure the Temple of God. The Temple is divided into two parts: the Temple and the Outer Court. The Temple is a type of the true Church of Jesus Christ in the last days. The remnant of God! They have come to the cross and worship in the Temple. Those in the Outer Court are a type of the false Church, they seem to be a part of the Temple but they are not. They are cast out. They have willfully refused the truth of God’s Word. They trample the Gospel of Jesus Christ underfoot. But this will only go on for a limited time. The witnesses are God’s remnant in the last days. There are few of them and they prophesy. They are true prophets, they are not those who practice divination like is so prevalent in the professing Church today. They receive power from God. They witness for Jesus Christ with the Power of the Holy Spirit, the power of the Word of God, and the power of prayer and faith! But the beast makes war upon them, overcomes them, and kills them. This is the climax of the growing antagonism and hatred of Christianity. The beast ascends and eventually overcomes them in the city of apostasy. The city of apostasy is described as Sodom, Egypt, and Jerusalem. Sodom is a type of religion that embraces and endorses sin. Egypt is a type of religion that refuses the Gospel of freedom from slavery. And Jerusalem is the city of hypocrisy that is willing to kill the prophets and witnesses of Jesus Christ. Although the witnesses are killed by the beast this is a false victory! Because the gates of Hell shall not prevail against the Church! All things are in subjection to Christ! And in these last days we must see Jesus!
