Mr. Terrific – Revelation 12:9

Revelation 12:9 The great dragon was hurled down — that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Sweet – Revelation 10:9

Revelation 10:9 So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, “Take it and eat it.

Voice – Revelation 5:14

Revelation 5:14 The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.

I sawContinue reading “Strange Creatures – Revelation 4:8”
