Revelation 14:6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.
The everlasting gospel spoken of in our first passage consists of 3 specific aspects of the gospel that are relevant to our day which feature some of the most significant truths that are to prepare the world for the soon coming of Christ. In those three messages of Revelation 14 you would not find anything that directly mentions Christ in His capacity as Redeemer, even though His redemption is implied by extension.
The reason for this is that His role as our Redeemer is not the problem in our day, it is His Creatorship that is being questioned by the majority of scientific and religious views. And because of this, the focus of the first message, written in our introductory passage, rests squarely on the great fact of creation and the issue of origins of species. This is the all-important question that’s on the front burner of the 1st angel’s message.
And it is the one that will bring earth’s final crisis to the forefront of the minds of earth’s inhabitants. The first of the three specific aspects deals with the universal issue of worship and calls our attention to the Creator of the heavens and the earth. Jesus is to be worshipped in His capacity as Creator, and in His capacity as Redeemer, but His role as Creator comes first, for without creating us there would be nothing to redeem.
Revelation 14:7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
