"A Lamb standing on Mount Zion"

Text: Revelation 14:1

THE LAMB OF GOD

Over and against the Beast of the Sea and the Beast of the Earth, God gave to John a lovely vision. John saw a Lamb standing on Mount Zion.

“Then I looked, and behold,
a Lamb standing on Mount Zion,
and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand,
having His Father’s name written on their foreheads.
And I heard a voice from heaven,
like the voice of many waters,
and like the voice of loud thunder.
And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps.
They sang as it were a new song before the throne,
before the four living creatures, and the elders;
and no one could learn that song
except the hundred and forty-four thousand
who were redeemed from the earth.”
