Revelation 14
20 verses
The Lamb stands on Mount Zion with the 144,000 who have his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads, singing the new song that no one could learn except the redeemed—the exclusive hymn of those purchased by Christ's blood. The three angels proclaim the eternal gospel to every nation, tribe, language, and people, announce the fall of Babylon the great, and warn against worship of the beast and reception of his mark, establishing the gospel's universal reach even as judgment unfolds. A fourth angel announces: Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality—the final judgment of the world system opposed to God. Another angel like a son of man comes on the cloud with a sharp sickle to reap the harvest of the earth, gathering the grain into God's granary, while another angel gathers the grapes for the winepress of God's wrath. The winepress is trodden outside the city, and blood flows from the winepress as high as a horse's bridle for a distance of 1,600 stadia—the immensity of God's judgment poured out upon the rebel world.
