Luke 10:20New English TranslationNevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names stand written in heaven.” See the chapter |
The beast you saw was, and is not, but is about to come up from the abyss and then go to destruction. The inhabitants of the earth – all those whose names have not been written in the book of life since the foundation of the world – will be astounded when they see that the beast was, and is not, but is to come.
