31-Revelation-20:

Thank you Lord for your Word...that today we can have it in our hands and read it for ourselves; and we can understand, for you have made us to be kings and priests and prophets. The first portion of this chapter is a recapitulation leading to the area of judgment...the great white throne...which is the topic of the chapter. Thank you Father that Satan is not released a second time. Thank you, Righteous Father, that all are cast swiftly into the same 'lake of fire'...to be destroyed...and evil shall cease to exist! Thank you Lord, that I will not be forced to stand before the great white throne; for those, who truly never die, and partake of the first resurection, will not be resurected to be judged out of the books of works and deeds and be subjected to a second death. We, who are in the Lamb's Book of Life, who have already bowed our knee, will not be judged in our 'filthy rags'...but will wear the righteous white linen of the saints...Jesus' Righteousness!
