Amen and amen and good morning and happy new year and you can be seated.

By the way, what's the cutoff date on saying Happy New Year?

March.

So glad you're here and joining with us, those of you online as well.

A couple things real quick before we jump in. Tuesday night, 7 p.m.

Here in the sanctuary is going to be our prayer meeting, and we are really looking forward to

having team Nepal. They're going to share with us. Yeah, praise the Lord Lord they're back from their medical missions

trip to Nepal and I've asked them to share with us about that trip so they'll

do so Tuesday night we'll start note for those of online, the start time is 7 p.m.

not 7.30 for the live stream and that is Hawaii standard time. Some people in your time

zone, you stay up. You don't have to stay up. Just go to bed. It's okay. Watch it in the morning

if you don't watch it live, but we're really

looking forward to hearing from team Nepal. All right, let's get into the word. Revelation chapter 14.

Our text today is verses 8 through 12. You don't have to, but if you're able and wanting to, I'll ask you to stand. You can follow along as I read.

Beginning in verse 8, where John continues now in obedience to God's command to write that which he has seen.

This is the heavenly scene. And he says, verse 8, a second angel followed and

said, Fallen, fallen is Babylon the Great, which made all the nations drink the maddening

wine of her adulteries.

A third angel, verse 9, followed them and said in a loud voice,

if anyone worships the beast and its image and receives its mark on their forehead or on their hand,

they too will drink the wine of God's fury,

which has been poured full strength into the cup of this wrath.
