743# 启12:10–12.我听见在天上有大声音说，我们神的救恩，能力，国度，并祂基督的权柄，现在都来到了；因为那在我们神面前昼夜控告我们弟兄的，已经被摔下去了。他们胜过他，是因羔羊的血，和他们所见证的话；他们至死也不爱惜自己的灵魂。因此，诸天和住在其中的，你们都欢乐吧。只是住在地与海上的有祸了，因为魔鬼知道自己只有很短的时间，就发大怒下到你们那里去了。

743. Verses 10-12. And I heard a great voice saying in heaven, Now is come the salvation, and the power (potentia), and the kingdom of our God, and the authority (potestas) of his Christ; because the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the Word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to those that inhabit the earth and the sea, for the devil is come down unto you having great anger, knowing that he hath but a short time.
"And I heard a great voice saying in heaven," signifies the joy of the angels of heaven because of the light and wisdom which they then possessed; "now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ," signifies that now the Lord has power, by means of His Divine Truth, to save those who are of His church, who receive it in heart and soul; "for the accuser of our brethren is cast down," signifies after those have been separated from heaven, and condemned to hell who have fought against a life of faith, which is charity; "who accuseth them before our God day and night," signifies and who have rebuked them and disputed with them continually from the Word. "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb," signifies resistance and victory by means of Divine Truth proceeding from the Divine Human of the Lord; "and by the Word of their testimony " signifies and by the confession and acknowledgment of the Divine in His Human; "and they loved not their life even unto death," signifies the faithful, who have endured temptations because of those truths, and esteemed the life of the world as of no account in comparison with the life of heaven.
