THE DEAD

These scriptures show the meaning of the dead in Revelation 12:18. The prophecy is a reference to the judgments faced on earth by those who are dead in sin. Especially when these are in control of the earth. When sin reigns supreme.

Matthew 8: 21 And another of his disciples said to him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father. 22 But Jesus said to him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.

Luke 15: 24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.

Ephesians 2:1 And you has he mad alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins;...... 5 Even when we were dead in sins, has made us alive together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;) 6 And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:.....5: 14 Therefore he says, Wake up you that sleep, and arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.

Colossians 2: 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the un-circumcision of your flesh, has he made alive together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses.

John 5:22 For the Father (God) judges no man, but has committed all judgment to the Son (Jesus): 23 That all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father which has sent him. 24 Truly, Truly, I say to you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death to life. 25 Truly, truly, I say to you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
