Revelation 19–22 Overview
Revelation 19:19 Then I saw
the beast, and the kings of the earth, and all their armies, gathered together to fight against him who rides on a white
horse and his army.
Revelation 19:20 The beast was captured, and the false prophet who
had performed signs in its presence to deceive those who received its mark and
worshiped its image, was also captured with it. And they were both thrown alive
into the lake of fire, burning sulfur.
Revelation 20:4 Then I saw
thrones, and seated upon them, with authority over judgment. And I saw those
who were beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for the word of God, and
the souls of those who had not worshiped the beast or its image, nor
received its mark on their foreheads or hands—they all
lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
Revelation 21:1 Then I saw a
new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had
passed away, and the sea was no more.
Revelation 21:2 Then I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
