Revelation 14:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Revelation 14:3. And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders:

See brethren, how little the powers of darkness can do; not only are the saints all there, but they are singing. The devil cannot rob Christ of a single sonnet; the stanzas of our grateful praise shall continue to be poured forth though all the dragons howl as they may: "They sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and the elders."

Revelation 14:3. And no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.

There is a special redemption, a "redemption from the earth." For such redeemed men there is a special song, which no others can learn; and that song will be sung by them in the darkest of all days, in the roughest of all weathers. When the dragons seem to triumph, Christ shall still have his praise, blessed be his holy name.
