Christians in the Last Days
Rev 22:8-9 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. Then he said to me, "See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."
John could recognize the angels but could not recognize the newly resurrected body of the prophet of God whose glory was so great that John thought that he was God and so he fell down to worship him.
Brethren, God loves men so much that He will share His glory with perfected Christians that there is no small wonder, that they will judge even the angels.
I Cor 6:3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?
Mysteries Revealed in Last Days
Rev 22:10-11 And he said to me, "Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still."
Just like the book of Daniel, the end time mysteries can only be revealed in the last days. The signing of the abominable PLO-Israel Peace Treaty on September 13, 1993 started the Last Days (End Time) fulfilling the First Seal (Rev 6) and also the Last Generation (Mat 24:32-34). In 1995, God killed the faithless Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin for signing this abominable Peace Treaty.
Note All end time writings and doctrines before 1993 must be discarded for they were written without the revelation from God.
Dan 12:9 And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Dan 12:10 Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.
Just as prophesied by Daniel, that in the last days, the faithful and wise Christians will keep His words and understand truth, resulting to their purification and refinement.
Unfortunately, worldly, carnal, depraved and heretic Christians are blind and without any understanding of end time prophecy. Instead of His words and truth, they prefer fables and lies
2 Tim 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables.
Rewards According to Works
Rev 22:12 "And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work."
Brethren, we are saved by the grace of God with the blood of Lamb of God on the cross. Just like a Jew whose sins are covered by the offering of the sacrificial lamb. So a Christian at salvation is outside New Jerusalem just like a Jew was at the outer court of the temple of God.
The Levites and Priesthood, who had no earthly inheritance, were God's servants if they kept the commandments of the law. Similarly, for a Christian to become a disciple of Jesus, he must keep the words of Jesus so that he can be rewarded for the good and righteous works.
John 8:31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed."
Rev 22:13-14 "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last." Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
So disciples of Jesus, who had joyfully sacrificed their whole lives sowing Jesus' love, joy, peace, mercy, kindness, truth and comforts to men, will be similarly rewarded when they enter New Jerusalem and partake the fruits from the tree of life, which will make their lives blissful - enjoying the love, peace, joy and comfort of the Father.
