Revelation 22:6-10

Revelation 22:6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.
7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
 
Verses 6 to 9 takes us back to the early part of this book, when the faithful and true witness told us that He would send His angel to convey His message concerning the things that must come to pass. It starts off by emphasizing that the sayings of the book of Revelation are true and faithful that this is not a dream but the reality of what is going to happen. Next Jesus says behold I come quickly and all who keep the sayings or lives by the teaching in this book, the Bible, will be blessed. Because of what John saw and believed he fell down to worship the one who showed it to him, to many times today people want to worship a man because of their leading them to Christ, but just as the angel told John do not worship me worship God because all are servants to God for His gave and mercy shown to us. Also remember the state John was in when this all began, he had to be taken up into Heaven and his body totally healed to be able to see what he was shown. Then verse 10 he is told do not seal this up for the time is at hand and people need to understand the coming of our Lord an Savior is soon. For those that read this and never respond are you ready, and for those that do respond do you know people that are not ready?
