1 | who are the chosen,elect, and faithfull? | Col 1:2 | Thomas8 | 222031 | ||
These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. (Revelation 17:14 KJV) I'm thinking that called, chosen and faithful are the same people...the saints ... For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. (1 Thessalonians 4:14 KJV) |

2 | who are the chosen,elect, and faithfull? | Col 1:2 | CDBJ | 222032 | ||
Greetings, this agrees with your summation. This is from Revelation Commentary that is free and available on the Internet. http://www.revelationcommentary.org/ Revelation 17:14 (1) These will wage war against the Lamb, and (2) the Lamb will overcome them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and (3) those who are with Him are the called and chosen and faithful. 1. These will wage war against the Lamb indicates the purpose or mind of the ten kings. They are united in their attitudes toward the Lamb. The attack of the ten kings against the Lamb is not specially detailed, but they must gather with the nations to Armageddon. 2. The Lamb will overcome them signals defeat for the ten kings and the beast. The title "Lord of lords and King of kings" is applied to the Lamb here and the rider on the white horse in Revelation 19:16. 3. Those who are with Him are the called and chosen and faithful is an unusual occurrences in the Revelation. Called (klatos) and chosen (eklektos) occur only here in the Revelation. Both words occur together in Matthew 22:14. These are clearly the saints of the ages. It is not explicitly stated what the role of the Lamb’s accomplices is. CDBJ |
