Revelation 6:15; No Hiding Place

Revelation 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 

A most despairing time as men of all walks of life sought shelter from the wrath of God. The mountains seemed the only stable stronghold to the best knowledge of men. Yet, these strongholds were insecure. In other words, there was nowhere to hide!

Who are these? From the greatest to the lowliest, as long as they reject Jesus Christ, they had to flee from the wrath that came.

(1) The kings of the earth

(2) The great men

(3) The rich men

(4) The chief captains

(5) The mighty men

(6) Every bond man

(7) Every free man

The separation is just one, they all knew not the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world.

John the Baptizer’s words come afresh to us – John 1:29 … John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. John 1:36 And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! 

John 1:11-13 He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, evento them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 

2 Corinthians 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) 

Amen.
