“If anyone has an ear, let him hear.” Revelation 13:9
Here in Chapter 13, we have just been introduced to the “Beast coming up out of the sea” and how “the Dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority”. Now consider Today’s Verse, “If anyone has an ear, let him hear” right in the middle of the Chapter. Strange, isn’t it? Isn’t this is what Jesus said repeatedly in the Gospels? Didn’t He usually say this when He was making a Super Important Point?
In simplest form, this means, “Christian, PAY ATTENTION”!!! Regardless of your Eschatological Views (End Times) and how you interpret the Book of Revelation, I think One Thing should be clear, we need to Take Heed to these things! And though this Whole Book is important, Chapter 13 has to be “Required Reading”, especially those verses before and after Verse 9!!! May God grant us Eyes to See and Ears to Hear!
