Revelation 19:9-10
And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
Even though John is sent from God, he is just another servant like you and me. John does not deserve praise or worship, just like we should not praise or worship people today that do Gods will. We need to keep our praise focused on God, not man. Even though John is now a heavenly being, he is still a man and fellow worker in God’s plan.

the internet was acting up today and we couldn’t get on for services. So i was reading this chapter in Rev. Thankfully John is not the bragging type, simply stating we are to honor Jesus only. for truly Christ is our only hope. Thank you for posting so that i may recieve incourgement. Remember to remain humble in the work of the Lord
