Revelation 20 Cross References - WPNT

¹ And I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key of the Abyss and a huge chain on his hand. ² And he seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is a slanderer, even Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years; ³ he threw him into the Abyss and locked and sealed it over him so that he should not deceive the nations any more until the thousand years were finished. And after these years he must be loosed for a short time. ⁴ And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them; also, I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded on account of the testimony of Jesus and on account of the Word of God, even those who had not worshipped the Beast or his image and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. ⁵ (Now the rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were finished.) This is the first resurrection. ⁶ Blessed and holy is the one having a part in the first resurrection; upon such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with Him a thousand years. ⁷ Now when the thousand years are finished Satan will be released from his prison, ⁸ and he will go forth to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is like the sand of the sea. ⁹ They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city.

And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things that were written in the books. ¹³ The ocean gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them; and they were judged each one according to their works. ¹⁴ And Death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death, the Lake of Fire. ¹⁵ And if anyone was not found written in the Book of Life he was thrown into the Lake of Fire.

¹⁰ So His disciples questioned Him saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” ¹¹ In answer Jesus said to them: “Elijah is indeed coming first, and he will restore all things. ¹² But I say to you that ‘Elijah’ has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. Thus also the Son of the Man is about to suffer at their hands.” ¹³ Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptizer.

¹⁷ in fact he himself will go before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of fathers to children’ and the disobedient to the mind-set of the righteous, to prepare a people made ready for the Lord.”

⁷ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead, ⁸ and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the ancient prophets had arisen. ⁹ But Herod said, “John I beheaded; so who is this about whom I hear such things?” And he started trying to see Him.

¹¹ And after three-and-a-half days the breath from God entered them and they stood on their feet, and a great fear fell on those who were watching them.

¹¹ And they conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not cherish their lives, even up to death.

¹² And he exercises all the authority of the first Beast in his presence; and he started to cause the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first Beast, whose mortal wound was healed. ¹³ And he performs great signs, including that fire should come down from heaven upon the earth before the people. ¹⁴ And he deceives my own people, those dwelling on the earth, by the signs that it was given to him to perform before the Beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the Beast who had the sword wound and lived. ¹⁵ And it was granted to him to give breath to the image of the Beast, so that the image of the Beast should actually speak, and should cause as many as would not worship the image of the Beast to be killed. ¹⁶ And he causes everyone—both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave—to receive marks on their right hand or on their foreheads, ¹⁷ so that no one would be able to buy or sell who does not have the mark, the name of the Beast or the number of his name.

¹¹ So the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest day or night, those who worship the Beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.

²⁰ So the Beast was captured, and with him the False prophet, the one who performed signs in his presence (by which he had deceived those who had received the mark of the Beast and those who worshipped his image).

And all the birds were filled with their flesh.

⁸ and he will go forth to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is like the sand of the sea. ⁹ They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them.

¹⁵ Well when one of the fellow-recliners heard these things, he said to Him, “Blessed is he who will eat dinner in the Kingdom of God!”

¹ Now then, brothers, I exhort you, in view of God’s compassions, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, satisfying to God—your intelligent duty.

⁵ you also, as living stones, are being built into a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

⁹ But you are a chosen family, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a private-property people, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

⁶ —indeed, He made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

¹¹ ‘He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches. The one who overcomes will absolutely not be harmed by the second death.’

¹³ I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on’ (“Yes” says the Spirit) ‘so that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow along with them’.”

⁴ And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them; also, I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded on account of the testimony of Jesus and on account of the Word of God, even those who had not worshipped the Beast or his image and had not received the mark on their forehead and on their hand. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. ⁵ (Now the rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were finished.) This is the first resurrection.

¹⁴ And Death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death, the Lake of Fire.

⁸ But as for the cowardly and unbelieving and sinners and abominable and murderers and fornicators and sorcerers and idolaters, and all who are false, their portion is in the Lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

⁷ Take note, I am coming swiftly! Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”

² And he seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is a slanderer, even Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years;

¹² And so, from one man, actually an impotent, were begotten descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky, and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

¹⁴ For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

³ he threw him into the Abyss and locked and sealed it over him so that he should not deceive the nations any more until the thousand years were finished. And after these years he must be loosed for a short time.

¹⁰ And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the Lake of Fire and brimstone, where the Beast and the False prophet also are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

¹⁶ So in answer Simon Peter said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God!” ¹⁷ And in answer Jesus said to him: “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father who is in the heavens. ¹⁸ And I further say to you that you are a stone, but on this bedrock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not withstand her.

⁵⁴ Well, when His disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven and consume them, just like Elijah did?”

²⁹ but on the day Lot went out from Sodom, fire and brimstone rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

⁴³ Yes, the days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you; indeed they will surround you and hem you in on every side.

²⁰ “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that her desolation is at hand.

⁸ inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,

¹³ So then, let us go out to Him, outside the camp, bearing His disgrace;

⁵ And if anyone wants to harm them fire comes out of their mouths and consumes their enemies. So if anyone wants to harm them he must be killed in this way.

¹³ And he performs great signs, including that fire should come down from heaven upon the earth before the people.

⁴¹ “Then He will also say to those on His left: ‘Go away from me, you accursed ones, into the eternal fire that was prepared for the devil and his angels.

⁴⁶ And they will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

¹⁰ really, he will drink of the wine of the fury of God, mixed at full strength in the cup of His wrath. In fact, he will be tormented with fire and sulfur before the holy angels and before the Lamb.” ¹¹ So the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest day or night, those who worship the Beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.

¹³ And I saw three unclean spirits, like frogs, coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the Beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

²⁰ So the Beast was captured, and with him the False prophet, the one who performed signs in his presence (by which he had deceived those who had received the mark of the Beast and those who worshipped his image). The two were thrown alive into the Lake of Fire that burns with brimstone.

² And he seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is a slanderer, even Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years; ³ he threw him into the Abyss and locked and sealed it over him so that he should not deceive the nations any more until the thousand years were finished. And after these years he must be loosed for a short time.

⁸ and he will go forth to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is like the sand of the sea.

¹⁴ And Death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death, the Lake of Fire. ¹⁵ And if anyone was not found written in the Book of Life he was thrown into the Lake of Fire.

³⁵ The heaven and the earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

³¹ “When the Son of the Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on His throne of glory.

³⁰ Such times of ignorance God did indeed overlook, but now He commands all people everywhere to repent, ³¹ because He has appointed a day in which He will judge the inhabited world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained; He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

⁵ Rather, due to your hardness and unrepentant heart, you are treasuring up wrath for yourself in the day of God’s wrath and revelation and righteous judgment,

⁷ But the current heavens, and the earth, are being reserved by His word for fire, being preserved until the day of judgment and perdition of godless men.

¹⁰ However, the day of the Lord will come like a thief at night, in which heavens will pass away with a whoosh, while the elements will be dissolved by burning—both the earth and the works in it will be completely consumed. ¹¹ Therefore, since all these things will be destroyed, what kind of people ought you to be in holy living and godliness, ¹² expecting and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which heavens, being on fire, will be dissolved, and the elements will melt with fervent heat?

² And immediately I was in spirit, and there, a throne set in heaven (and One sitting on the throne)

¹⁴ And the sky was split, like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.

⁸ but he was not strong enough; neither was there any place found for him in heaven any more.

²⁰ And every island fled, and mountains were not found.

¹¹ I saw the heaven opened, and wow, a white horse! And the One who sits on it, called Faithful and True, both judges and makes war with righteousness.

¹ Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, because the first heaven and the first earth had passed away; also, the ocean was no more.

²⁷ For the Son of the Man will certainly come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will recompense each according to his performance.

²⁰ However, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”

²⁸ Do not marvel at this, because a time is coming in which all those in the graves will hear His voice ²⁹ and will come out—those who did good things into the resurrection of life, but those who practiced evil things into the resurrection of condemnation.

²⁵ Jesus said to her: “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes into me, though he may die, will live; ²⁶ and everyone who both lives and believes into me will never ever die. Do you believe this?”

¹⁵ having hope in God, which these themselves also look for, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both the just and unjust.

⁶ who will repay each one according to his works:

¹⁰ But you, why do you judge your brother? And you too, why do you look down on your brother? Because we will all stand before the Judgment Seat of Christ. ¹¹ For it is written: “‘As I live,’ says the LORD, ‘every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall acknowledge God.’” ¹² So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.

⁵ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and expose the motives of the hearts. At that time the praise that comes to each will be from God.

²¹ For since death came through a man, resurrection of the dead also came through a man. ²² For as all in Adam are dying, so also all in the Christ will be made alive. ²³ But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, then those who belong to Christ at His coming;

¹⁰ Because we must all be exposed before Christ’s Judgment Seat, that each one may receive his due for the things he did while in the body, whether good or bad.

³ Yes, I urge you too, loyal Syzygus, help these women who labored with me in the Gospel, and with Clement and the rest of my fellow workers, whose names are in the Book of Life.

¹⁵ For this we say to you by a word of the Lord, that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will absolutely not precede those who have fallen asleep; ¹⁶ because the Lord Himself—with a commanding shout, with the archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet—will come down from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first; ¹⁷ then we who are still alive, who are left, will be snatched up together with them in clouds to meet the Lord in the air. In precisely this way we will always be with the Lord.

²³ And I will execute her children; and all the churches will know that I am the One who searches minds and hearts, and I will give to each one of you according to your works.

⁵ The one who overcomes will thus be clothed in white garments, and I will not erase his name from the Book of Life, and I will confess his name before my Father and before His angels.

¹⁸ The nations were angry and your wrath came, even the time for the dead to be judged and to give the reward to Your slaves the prophets, and to the saints and those who fear your name, small and great, and to destroy those who have corrupted the earth.”

⁸ All who dwell on the earth will do obeisance to him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slaughtered from the foundation of the world.

⁵ And a voice came from the Throne saying, “”Praise our God, all you His slaves and those who fear Him, small and great!”

¹¹ Then I saw a tremendous white throne and the One who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the sky fled away; and no place was found for them.

¹³ The ocean gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them; and they were judged each one according to their works.

²⁷ But anything ‘common’ or anyone perpetrating an abomination or a lie will absolutely not enter her; only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

¹² “Take note, I am coming swiftly, and my reward is with me to give to each one according to his work.

⁵⁰ Now this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God; neither will deterioration inherit incorruptibility. ⁵¹ And now, I tell you a mystery: we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed ⁵² —in a split second, in an eye twinkle, at the last trumpet—the trumpet will blast and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we will be changed. ⁵³ Because this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal put on immortality. ⁵⁴ So whenever this corruptible puts on incorruption and this mortal puts on immortality, then this written word will happen: “Death has been swallowed down into victory.” ⁵⁵ “Where, O Death, is your sting? Where, O Hades, is your victory?” ⁵⁶ The stinger of death is sin, and the adjunct of sin is the law. ⁵⁷ Now thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ! ⁵⁸ So then, my dear brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

⁸ And I looked and wow, a sickly pale horse! And as for the one sitting upon it, his name is Death, and Hades follows with him. And authority was given to him over a fourth of the earth, to kill by sword and by famine and by death, even by the wild animals of the earth.

¹² And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne; and books were opened. And another Book was opened, namely, of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things that were written in the books.

²⁶ The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.

⁵³ Because this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal put on immortality.

¹⁵ And if anyone was not found written in the Book of Life he was thrown into the Lake of Fire.

⁴ And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there will be no more death nor sorrow nor crying nor pain —they will exist no more because the first things have gone.”

⁴² and they will throw them into the furnace of fire. There there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

⁵⁰ and they will throw them into the furnace of fire. There there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

⁴³ Further, if your hand is causing you to fall, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into the Life maimed than having both hands to go away into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire— ⁴⁴ where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched’. ⁴⁵ And if your foot is causing you to fall, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into the Life lame than having both feet to be thrown into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire— ⁴⁶ where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched’. ⁴⁷ And if your eye is causing you to fall, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than having both eyes to be thrown into the Gehenna of fire— ⁴⁸ where ‘their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched’.

¹⁶ He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

¹⁸ The one believing into Him is not condemned, but the one not believing has already been condemned, because he has not believed into the name of the only begotten Son of God. ¹⁹ “Now this is the basis for the condemning, that the Light has come into the world, but the people loved the darkness rather than the light because their deeds were malignant.

³⁶ The one believing into the Son has eternal life, but the one disobeying the Son will not see the life, but the wrath of God will remain upon him.”

⁶ Jesus says to him: “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one goes to the Father except through me.

¹² Also, the salvation does not exist in anyone else, because there is no other name under heaven, given among men, by which we must be saved.”

³ how shall we escape if we are careless about that tremendous salvation?—it received its beginning through the Lord’s declaration and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him\up6 [S]\up0,

²⁵ See to it that you not refuse Him who speaks. Because if they did not escape who refused Him who gave divine warning on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from Him who warns from Heaven!

¹¹ And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. ¹² He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
