These demons could perform miracles and they went out to the kings of the earth. They gathered them together for battle against the Lord on the day of the Almighty God and his judgement.

"This all calls for a bunch of understanding and wisdom. The seven heads are the seven hills where the whore sits. They are hills, but also kings.

This was God's plan all along, for everyone to give power to the beast until the word of God is complete.

He hollered out, "She's done for! The great Babylon has fallen. She camps in a ghost town of demons now. Vultures and buzzards live within her.

There will be no market for their cinnamon, spice, smoking incense, myrrh, or frankincense, wine or oil, flour or wheat, cattle or sheep, horses or carriages, slaves, or even human lives.

"The businessmen will say to her, 'Every fancy trinket you strove for is gone with your wealth and your beauty. They will never be found again.'

"But heaven rejoices at her destruction. God's cowboys, prophets, and apostles all let out a cheer. God has paid the whore back for all she did to God's people."

Babylon was punished for the blood of God's people who were found inside her gates. Blood from every part of the earth had stained her streets.

Be happy all of you and praise God's greatness! The time of the wedding for the Lamb has come. His bride has prepared herself for this time.

She's been given white to wear for her purity." (This stands for the good deeds of God's cowboys.)

Then I saw an angel standing on top of the sun. He called out to the all the birds of the air and said, "Come, for a great feast awaits you!

He grabbed the dragon, that old snake—the devil or Satan—and hog tied him for a thousand years.

The angel chunked him into the pit and locked it up tight. That old dragon wouldn't be able to deceive anyone for a thousand years. He'd be turned loose for a little while after that.

Then I saw a bunch of judge's chairs. Those cowboys sitting on them were given the authority to judge others. I also witnessed those who had their heads chopped off for not following the beast or taking his brand. They had told the truth about Jesus up to the very end. They were brought back to life and reigned like kings with Jesus for one thousand years.

There wasn't anyone who was raised to life who said it wasn't worth it. They were all happy. The second death has no power over them. They will be cowboy priests for Christ and God. They will rule for a thousand years.

There was no need for a sun or moon. It is lit with the glory of God and the Lamb is the torch.

No curse shall be found on anything. This is where the throne of God, the Lamb, and their cowboys are. The cowboys will worship them for all time there.

Since there is no night, there is no need for lamps or the sun. God's glory will light everything. God and his Lamb will rule forever and ever.

"Listen up!" Jesus said. "I am riding back soon. There won't be a single cowboy who will regret riding for my brand. They will never despair for obeying the words of this book."
