Rev. 7:12
"Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen."

This is the last verse in the marriage series of Chapter Seven (vv. 7:9-12).

Next is the question and answer of the angel who has been showing John the vision.
This angel of Rev. 1:1, also called an elder among other names throughout the book.

And for the dissenters, who are married to their archaic and outdated interpretations, the angel showing John the vision is the only individual interacting with John other than the Savior throughout the book. Are you so incapable of reason and logic to see this?
 
Rev. 7:13
"And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?"

The elder is the angel of Rev. 1:1 tasked with showing John the vision.
Only three individuals interact throughout the vision. The Savior, the angel, and John.
 
Rev. 7:14
"And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb."

This is a hard verse for the dissenter.

They came out of great tribulation. They are still on the earth. They have not been taken in a rapture but gathered together as stated in Rev. 12:6. Wake up!
 
Rev. 7:15
"Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them."

Therefore, they are before the throne of God (Rev. 7:11), and they serve him day and night, doing what? Working in their calling in the tribulation, as shown in Rev. 19:11-20. And working in the judgment gathering souls (Ch. 16). And working throughout the thousand-year millennium as stated in Rev. 20:4.

Attack that dissenter. I have blocked you. And Lord Jesus is with me.
 
Rev. 7:16
"They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat."

They are in the city of New Jerusalem (Rev. 21).
 
Rev. 7:17
"For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes."

They have tears in their eyes because of the events of the tribulation. Many of you are not ready in several areas of preparedness, the first of which is your commitment to the Savior, and this especially describes the dissenter. Get ready and develop a stronger testimony of Christ. Do not take the mark of the beast.
