啟示錄 11:15-18
15 第七位天使吹號， 天上就有大聲音說： 世上的國成了我主和主基督的國； 他要作王，直到永永遠遠。 16 在神面前， 坐在自己位上的二十四位長老， 就面伏於地， 敬拜神， 17說： 昔在、 今在的主神 ─ 全能者阿， 我們感謝你！ 因你執掌大權作王了。 18 外邦發怒， 你的忿怒也臨到了； 審判死人的時候也到了。 你的僕人眾先知和眾聖徒， 凡敬畏你名的人， 連大帶小得賞賜的時候也到了。 你敗壞那些敗壞世界之人的時候也就到了。
Revelation 11:15-18
15 Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!” 16 And the twenty-four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17 saying: “We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, The One who is and who was and who is to come, because You have taken Your great power and reigned. 18 The nations were angry, and Your wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that You should reward Your servants the prophets and the saints, and those who fear Your name, small and great, and should destroy those who destroy the earth.”
Today is the age of the kingdom of the world and the whole world lies under the power of the evil one. But, this will all come to an end when the world will become the kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever. That will be a time for the judgment of the dead, a time for the rewarding of Lord’s servants and His saints, and a time to destroy the destroyer. There will be a new beginning and we were destined to be part of it. Give thanks to God almighty, who is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end!
