Revelation 1:16 Display Chapter and Footnotes   16 And he had in his right hand seven stars; and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword; and his countenance was like the sun shining at full strength. | Revelation 2:15 Display Chapter and Footnotes   15 So you also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitians, which thing I hate. [According to early Quaker Stephen Crisp, who dwelled in the kingdom, the doctrine of the Nicolaitians was: since the law is dead, as long as you have faith, there is no sin to be counted against you, which is the cornerstone of today's Protestant Christianity — that grace excuses their past, present, and future sins — thereby transferring the meaning of grace to become a license for immorality. From the Word of the Lord within: "They have taken the Bible and made it an unholy thing used to justify their immersion in sin." Margaret Fox replied strongly to the ministers and teachers of corruption in her time, who taught that the entire law of God was cancelled and replaced by just believing in Jesus. This letter is also on the Until Your Words and Deeds are Prompted by God, You Must Obey the Inner Law on the Heart of Every Man web page, and perfectly applies to Christianity's false doctrines today. From the Word of the Lord within: "The law is in every man's heart, and it must be obeyed; the supreme law — never been cancelled."] | Revelation 19:15 Display Chapter and Footnotes   15 And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron. He treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. |
