Sunrise on Temple Mount in Jerusalem; Back to Previous Devotion

December 29 - Morning

"Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s
name written on their foreheads...
...I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was one 'like a son of man' 
with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle
in his hand. Then another angel came out of the temple and called in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, 'Take your sickle and reap, because the time to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.' So he who was seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested.
Another angel came out of the temple in heaven, and he too had a sharp sickle.  Still another angel, who had charge of the fire, came from the altar and called in a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, 'Take your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of grapes from the earth’s vine, because its grapes are ripe.' The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of God’s wrath. They were trampled in the winepress outside the city, and blood flowed out
of the press, rising as high as the horses’ bridles
for a distance of 1,600 stadia.
"

- Revelation 14:1, 14-20

The Lord Returns to Jerusalem    

In chapter fourteen the 144,000 marked with the Father's name are seen on Mount Zion (Jerusalem) with the Lamb. Mt. Zion is in Jerusalem and this vision indicates that the 144,000 will endure through the tribulation, possibly by being hidden and preserved in the desert for 1,260 days (Rev.12:6). They will be with Jesus in Jerusalem upon his return to the earth, possibly after having joined him in Bozrah. Bozrah is in the wilderness where the 144,000 could have been hidden. Isaiah graphically describes the Lord's glorious entrance into Israel from Bozrah:

"Who is this coming from Edom,
    from Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson?
Who is this, robed in splendor,
    striding forward in the greatness of his strength?

“It is I, speaking in righteousness,
    mighty to save.”

"Why are your garments red,
    like those of one treading the winepress?

"I have trodden the winepress alone;
    from the nations no one was with me.
I trampled them in my anger
    and trod them down in my wrath;
their blood spattered my garments,
    and I stained all my clothing.
For the day of vengeance was in my heart,
    and the year of my redemption has come.
I looked, but there was no one to help,
    I was appalled that no one gave support;
so my own arm worked salvation for me,
    and my own wrath sustained me.
I trampled the nations in my anger;
    in my wrath I made them drunk
    and poured their blood on the ground.” - Isaiah 63:1-6

This chapter includes the announcement that the center of the world's economy, Babylon, has fallen. There are also two references to the harvest of the earth: reaping grain and harvesting grapes.

  Christian Quote from Church History

"Probably in our own, modern substitutes for (immediate baptism upon profession) – raising hands, coming forward, etc. – are the result of a felt need to do something for those who believe. It seems certain that those who believed were distinguished from those who did not. There is no evidence that the New Testament evangelistic preachers asked them to come forward, but there is every indication that they did invite those who believed to be baptized (Ac. 2:38). And it seems that this was the way in which new converts professed their faith in Christ and came under the care and discipline of the church."

- Jay Adams

Something to Ponder??
In the 600's AD Caedmon lived in Britain, the land that would become England. Caedmon was a monk and one of the few literate members of the old Saxon society. Caedmon translated portions of the Latin Old and New Testament into a metrical paraphrase for the people to hear, memorize and use. HERE and HERE are images of his work written in Old Saxon, a fore runner of English. HERE and HERE are the translations of the images.
