Wrath of God

is the wrath of god anger towards service to self?


Rev 14:10

Here's my problem:

In order to properly understand the context of Revelation, most of the time you have to understand what is being said beforehand. And good luck understanding what is being said beforehand in certain places.

Straight translation does it convey meaning?
well, i'm asking what it's relationship is to god and self.


obviously it's god's anger. we don't normally think of love as being angry. we do know that expressing negative emotions can be healthy.

What do you mean by "service to self"?

The passage states very plainly that God's wrath comes upon all who worship the beast.
uh huh, has to do with the quid pro quo thing.


Matthew 4:9
And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.

i didn't really qualify service to self, please allow now.


service to self = selfishness, or self serving

service to other as self = selflessness, or service to all


can be understood based on the first two commandments; which are alike and implied by the name of names, exodus 3:14
