Henry: Welcome To Immerse: The
Daily Bible Reading Experience.

00:00:02.978 --> 00:00:03.458
Day 80.

00:00:03.774 --> 00:00:08.874
Then I saw Heaven opened and a
white horse was standing there.

00:00:10.284 --> 00:00:15.354
Its rider was named faithful
and true for he judges fairly

00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:17.004
and wages of righteous war.

00:00:18.024 --> 00:00:22.764
His eyes were like flames of fire,
and on his head were many crowns.

00:00:23.394 --> 00:00:27.194
A name was written on him that
no one understood except himself.

00:00:28.254 --> 00:00:32.964
He wore a robe dipped in blood,
and his title was The Word of God.

00:00:34.014 --> 00:00:37.614
The armies of heaven dressed in
the finest of pure white linen,

00:00:37.914 --> 00:00:39.744
followed him on white horses.

00:00:40.824 --> 00:00:44.694
From his mouth, came a sharp
sword to strike down the nation's.

00:00:44.994 --> 00:00:47.364
He will rule them with an iron rod.

00:00:47.604 --> 00:00:51.804
He will release the fierce
wrath of God, the almighty, like

00:00:51.804 --> 00:00:53.634
juice flowing from a wine press.

00:00:54.774 --> 00:00:59.214
On his robe at his thigh was
written this title, king of All

00:00:59.214 --> 00:01:01.704
Kings and Lord of All Lords.

00:01:03.594 --> 00:01:07.164
Then I saw an angel standing
in the sun shouting to the

00:01:07.164 --> 00:01:09.174
vultures, flying high in the sky.

00:01:09.834 --> 00:01:14.784
Come gather together for the
great banquet God has prepared.

00:01:15.114 --> 00:01:20.214
Come and eat the flesh of kings
generals and strong warriors of

00:01:20.214 --> 00:01:25.374
horses and their riders, and of
all humanity, both free and slave.

00:01:25.824 --> 00:01:27.234
Small and great.

00:01:29.094 --> 00:01:33.234
Then I saw the beast and the kings of
the world and their armies gathered

00:01:33.234 --> 00:01:37.044
together to fight against the ones
sitting on the horse and his army.

00:01:38.259 --> 00:01:42.189
The beast was captured and with him,
the false prophet who did mighty

00:01:42.189 --> 00:01:43.959
miracles on behalf of the beast.

00:01:44.169 --> 00:01:47.739
Miracles that deceived all who
had accepted the mark of the beast

00:01:47.744 --> 00:01:49.299
and who worshiped his statue.

00:01:50.559 --> 00:01:54.549
Both the beast and his false
prophet were thrown alive in into

00:01:54.549 --> 00:01:56.709
the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

00:01:57.729 --> 00:02:02.019
Their entire army was killed by the
sharp sword that came from the mouth

00:02:02.019 --> 00:02:04.029
of the one riding the white horse.

00:02:04.734 --> 00:02:08.214
And the vultures all gorged
themselves on the dead bodies.

00:02:10.164 --> 00:02:14.784
Then I saw an angel coming down from
heaven with the key to the bottomless

00:02:14.789 --> 00:02:17.004
pit and a heavy chain in his hand.

00:02:17.994 --> 00:02:24.354
He seized the dragon, that old serpent,
who is the devil, Satan, and bound

00:02:24.354 --> 00:02:26.664
him in chains for a thousand years.

00:02:27.474 --> 00:02:31.824
The angel threw him into the bottomless
pit, which he then shut and locked.

00:02:31.824 --> 00:02:35.604
So Satan could not deceive
the nations anymore until the

00:02:35.604 --> 00:02:37.164
thousand years were finished.

00:02:37.914 --> 00:02:40.404
Afterward, he must be
released for a little while.

00:02:42.114 --> 00:02:46.524
Then I saw thrones and the people
sitting on them had been given the

00:02:46.524 --> 00:02:51.174
authority to judge, and I saw the
souls of those who had been beheaded

00:02:51.174 --> 00:02:54.864
for their testimony about Jesus and
for proclaiming the word of God.

00:02:55.869 --> 00:02:59.829
They had not worshiped the beast or
his statue, nor accepted his mark

00:02:59.829 --> 00:03:01.599
on their foreheads or their hands.

00:03:02.469 --> 00:03:07.059
They all came to life again and they
reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

00:03:08.139 --> 00:03:09.969
This is the first resurrection.

00:03:10.629 --> 00:03:14.589
The rest of the dead did not come back to
life until the thousand years had ended.

00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:19.389
Blessed and holy are those who
share in the first resurrection.

00:03:19.749 --> 00:03:22.239
For them, the second death holds no power.

00:03:22.689 --> 00:03:25.869
But they will be priests of God
and of Christ and will reign

00:03:25.869 --> 00:03:27.579
with him a thousand years.

00:03:29.409 --> 00:03:34.239
When the thousand years come to an end,
Satan will be let out of his prison.

00:03:35.259 --> 00:03:39.309
He will go out to deceive the
nations called Gog and Mego

00:03:39.939 --> 00:03:41.499
in every corner of the earth.

00:03:42.189 --> 00:03:46.689
He will gather them together for
battle, a mighty army as numberless

00:03:46.689 --> 00:03:48.309
as sand along the seashore.

00:03:48.909 --> 00:03:53.139
And I saw them as they went up on the
broad plain of the earth and surrounded

00:03:53.139 --> 00:03:55.359
God's people and the beloved city.

00:03:56.409 --> 00:04:00.699
But fire from Heaven came down on the
attacking armies and consumed them.

00:04:01.869 --> 00:04:06.099
Then the devil who had deceived
them was thrown into the fire, fiery

00:04:06.099 --> 00:04:11.049
lake of burning sulfur, joining the
beast and the false prophet there.

00:04:11.049 --> 00:04:14.529
They will be tormented day
and night forever and ever.

00:04:16.524 --> 00:04:21.684
I saw a great white throne and
the one sitting on it, the earth

00:04:21.684 --> 00:04:26.064
and sky fled from his presence,
but they found no place to hide.

00:04:26.844 --> 00:04:32.574
I saw the dead, both great and small
standing before God's throne and the books

00:04:32.574 --> 00:04:37.944
were opened, including the Book of Life
and the Dead were judged according to what

00:04:37.944 --> 00:04:40.344
they had done as recorded in the books.

00:04:40.989 --> 00:04:46.989
The sea gave up, its dead and death,
and the grave gave up their dead and all

00:04:46.989 --> 00:04:48.999
were judged according to their deeds.

00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:53.469
Then death and the grave were
thrown into the lake of fire.

00:04:54.309 --> 00:04:58.539
This lake of fire is the second
death, and anyone whose name was not

00:04:58.544 --> 00:05:02.529
found recorded in the book of life
was thrown into the lake of fire.

00:05:03.999 --> 00:05:08.679
Then I saw a new heaven and a
new Earth for the old heaven and

00:05:08.679 --> 00:05:10.209
the old Earth had disappeared.

00:05:10.674 --> 00:05:17.244
And the sea was also gone, and I saw the
Holy City, the new Jerusalem coming down

00:05:17.244 --> 00:05:21.324
from God out of heaven like a bride,
beautifully dressed for her husband.

00:05:22.614 --> 00:05:27.144
I heard a loud shout from the
Thrones saying, look, God's

00:05:27.149 --> 00:05:29.484
home is now among his people.

00:05:29.844 --> 00:05:32.874
He will live with them and
they will be his people.

00:05:33.444 --> 00:05:35.544
God himself will be with them.

00:05:36.054 --> 00:05:40.254
He will wipe every tear from their
eyes and there will be no more

00:05:40.254 --> 00:05:43.524
death or sorrow or crying or pain.

00:05:44.064 --> 00:05:46.374
All these things are gone forever.

00:05:47.964 --> 00:05:54.024
And the one sitting on the throne
said, look, I am making everything new.

00:05:54.594 --> 00:05:59.634
And then he said to me, write
this down for what I tell

00:05:59.634 --> 00:06:01.644
you is trustworthy and true.

00:06:02.694 --> 00:06:06.114
And he also said, It is finished.

00:06:06.744 --> 00:06:11.304
I am the alpha and the omega,
the beginning and the end

00:06:12.234 --> 00:06:13.794
to all who are thirsty.

00:06:13.799 --> 00:06:17.274
I will give freely from the
springs of the water of life.

00:06:17.724 --> 00:06:22.224
All who are victorious will inherit
all these blessings and I will be

00:06:22.224 --> 00:06:24.954
their God and they will be my children.

00:06:26.229 --> 00:06:32.799
But cowards, unbelievers, the corrupt
murderers, the immoral, those who

00:06:32.799 --> 00:06:38.589
practice witchcraft, idle worshipers,
and all liars, their fate is in

00:06:38.594 --> 00:06:40.689
the fiery lake of burning sulfur.

00:06:41.379 --> 00:06:42.949
This is the second death.

00:06:45.819 --> 00:06:50.499
Then one of the seven angels who held
the seven bowls containing the seven last

00:06:50.504 --> 00:06:53.889
plagues came and said to me, come with me.

00:06:54.459 --> 00:06:57.429
I will show you the bride,
the wife of the lamb.

00:06:58.809 --> 00:07:02.949
So he took me in the spirit to
a great high mountain and he

00:07:02.949 --> 00:07:07.689
showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem
descending out of heaven from God.

00:07:08.559 --> 00:07:12.639
It shone with the glory of God
and sparkled like a precious stone

00:07:12.999 --> 00:07:15.009
like Jasper, as clear as crystal.

00:07:16.389 --> 00:07:21.549
The city wall was broad and high
with 12 gates guarded by 12 angels,

00:07:21.849 --> 00:07:25.659
and the names of the 12 tribes of
Israel were written on the gates.

00:07:26.499 --> 00:07:31.179
There were three gates on each
side, east, north, south, and west.

00:07:31.419 --> 00:07:36.549
The wall of the city had 12 foundation
stones, and on them were written the

00:07:36.549 --> 00:07:38.859
names of the 12 apostles of the lamb.

00:07:40.449 --> 00:07:44.889
The angel who talked to me held in his
hand a gold measuring stick to measure

00:07:44.889 --> 00:07:47.439
the city, its gates and its wall.

00:07:48.249 --> 00:07:53.079
When he measured it, he found it
was a square as wide as it was long.

00:07:54.249 --> 00:07:59.859
In fact, its length and width
and height were each 1,400 miles.

00:08:00.699 --> 00:08:06.159
Then he measured the walls and found
them to be 216 feet thick, according to

00:08:06.159 --> 00:08:08.349
the human standard used by the angel.

00:08:10.044 --> 00:08:14.904
The wall was made of Jasper and the
city was pure gold, as clear as glass.

00:08:16.284 --> 00:08:20.124
The wall of the city was built
on foundation stones inlaid

00:08:20.124 --> 00:08:21.894
with 12 precious stones.

00:08:22.854 --> 00:08:29.274
The first was Jasper, the second sapphire,
the third agate, the fourth emerald,

00:08:29.304 --> 00:08:36.234
the fifth onyx, the sixth cornelian, the
seventh chrysolite, the eighth barrel.

00:08:36.564 --> 00:08:43.944
The ninth Topaz, the 10th christop praise,
the 11th jth and the 12th amethyst.

00:08:45.024 --> 00:08:50.664
The 12 gates were made of pearls, each
gate from a single pearl, and the main

00:08:50.664 --> 00:08:53.544
street was pure gold, as clear as glass.

00:08:54.774 --> 00:09:00.174
I saw no temple in the city for the Lord
God Almighty, and the lamb are its temple.

00:09:01.329 --> 00:09:03.459
The city has no need of sun or moon.

00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:06.249
For the glory of God illuminates the city.

00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:08.259
And the lamb is its light.

00:09:09.219 --> 00:09:13.119
The nations will walk in its light,
and the kings of the world will

00:09:13.119 --> 00:09:15.159
enter the city in all their glory.

00:09:16.179 --> 00:09:19.719
Its gates will never be closed at the
end of day because there is no night

00:09:19.719 --> 00:09:24.189
there, and all the nations will bring
their glory and honor into the city.

00:09:25.029 --> 00:09:27.429
Nothing evil will be allowed to enter.

00:09:27.774 --> 00:09:33.804
Nor anyone who practices shameful idolatry
and dishonesty, but only those whose names

00:09:33.804 --> 00:09:35.964
are written in the lamb's book of life.

00:09:37.104 --> 00:09:42.864
Then the angel showed me a river with the
water of life clear as crystal flowing

00:09:42.869 --> 00:09:45.024
from the throne of God and of the lamb.

00:09:45.864 --> 00:09:50.274
It flowed down the center of the main
street on each side of the river.

00:09:50.274 --> 00:09:55.644
Grew a tree of life bearing 12 crops
of fruit with a fresh crop each month.

00:09:56.259 --> 00:09:59.139
The leaves were used for
medicine to heal the nations.

00:10:00.369 --> 00:10:05.229
No longer will there be a curse
upon anything for the throne of God

00:10:05.234 --> 00:10:10.179
and of the lamb will be there and
his servants will worship him and

00:10:10.179 --> 00:10:14.259
they will see his face and his name
will be written on their foreheads.

00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:19.779
And there will be no night there, no
need for lamps or sun for the Lord.

00:10:19.779 --> 00:10:24.639
God will shine on them and they
will reign forever and ever.

00:10:26.394 --> 00:10:30.894
Then the angel said to me,
everything you have heard and

00:10:30.894 --> 00:10:33.264
seen is trustworthy and true.

00:10:34.104 --> 00:10:38.874
The Lord God who inspires his
prophets, has sent his angel to tell

00:10:38.874 --> 00:10:41.034
his servants what will happen soon.

00:10:42.144 --> 00:10:44.544
Look, I am coming soon.

00:10:45.234 --> 00:10:49.554
Blessed are those who obey the words
of prophecy written in this book.

00:10:52.104 --> 00:10:59.304
I, John am the one who heard and saw
all these things, and when I heard and

00:10:59.309 --> 00:11:04.344
saw them, I fell down to worship at the
feet of the angel who showed them to me.

00:11:05.124 --> 00:11:08.154
But he said, no, don't worship me.

00:11:08.724 --> 00:11:11.724
I am a servant of God, just
like you and your brothers.

00:11:11.724 --> 00:11:17.574
The prophets as well as all who obey what
is written in this book, worship Only God.

00:11:19.059 --> 00:11:20.499
Then he instructed me.

00:11:21.069 --> 00:11:25.509
Do not seal up the prophetic words
in this book for the time is near.

00:11:26.229 --> 00:11:29.289
Let the one who is doing
harm continue to do harm.

00:11:29.859 --> 00:11:32.559
Let the one who is vile
continue to be vile.

00:11:33.549 --> 00:11:36.609
Let the one who is righteous
continue to live righteously.

00:11:37.659 --> 00:11:40.719
Let the one who is holy
continue to be holy.

00:11:41.769 --> 00:11:47.079
Look, I am coming soon, bringing
my reward with me to repay all

00:11:47.079 --> 00:11:48.909
people according to their deeds.

00:11:49.479 --> 00:11:55.839
I am the alpha and the Omega, the first
and the last, the beginning and the end.

00:11:57.069 --> 00:11:59.049
Blessed are those who wash their robes.

00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.439
They will be permitted to enter
through the gates of the city and

00:12:02.439 --> 00:12:04.269
eat the fruit from the tree of life.

00:12:04.959 --> 00:12:09.849
Outside the city are the dogs, the
sorcerers, the sexually immoral,

00:12:10.029 --> 00:12:14.499
the murderers, the idol, worshipers,
and all who love to live a lie.

00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:20.439
I Jesus have sent my angel to give
you this message for the churches.

00:12:21.429 --> 00:12:25.209
I am both the source of David
and the heir to his throne.

00:12:25.659 --> 00:12:27.699
I am the bright morning star.

00:12:29.439 --> 00:12:32.349
The spirit and the bride say, come.

00:12:33.414 --> 00:12:39.354
Let anyone who hears this say,
come let anyone who is thirsty

00:12:39.354 --> 00:12:44.724
come let anyone who desires, drink
freely from the water of life.

00:12:45.684 --> 00:12:49.584
And I solemnly declare to everyone
who hears the words of prophecy

00:12:49.584 --> 00:12:53.334
written in this book, if anyone
adds anything to what is written

00:12:53.334 --> 00:12:56.094
here, God will add to that person.

00:12:56.094 --> 00:12:58.014
The plagues described in this book.

00:12:58.899 --> 00:13:02.649
And if anyone removes any of the
words from this book of prophecy,

00:13:03.009 --> 00:13:06.999
