the end,
|
| Heb.5.12 |
For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need some one to
teach you again the first principles of God's word. You need milk, not

by translation of his name, king of righteousness, and then he is also
king of Salem, that is, king of peace.

and evil sores came upon the men who bore the mark of the beast and
worshiped its image.

ended. This is the first resurrection.

the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of
Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.
