Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of Nathanael Emmons, D. D, Vol. 6: Pastor of the Church in Franklin, Mass;, With a Memoir of His Life And I fell at his feet to worship him. And lie said unto me, See thou do it not I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus; worship God. - Revelations, xix. 10. The apostle tells us in the beginning of this chapter, that "he had a vision of heaven, where he heard a voice which came out of the throne, saying. Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints. And he saith unto me, Write, blessed are they who are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me. These are the true sayings of God." The apostle, it seems, supposed that the person, who had been revealing to him the future glory and prosperity of the church, was Christ himself in his glorified state. Accordingly, in a transport of joy and gratitude, "he fell at his feet to worship him." But the person perceiving his mistake, justly reproved him for his well intended, but misapplied worship. "See thou do it not. I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus." This was as much as to say, "I am a mere creature, and, though of the angelic order, yet thine equal in office.
