Explaining the Book of Revelations

Ave Maria Purissima...Peace be to all!

In our previous post we discussed about the Name of the Third Person of the Most Holy Co-substantial,Co-Equal,Co-Eternal Trinity; the Holy Spirit, Mahal na Ingkong referring to Revelation 3:12ff, His functions and roles for the salvation of men, the foundation of His Church and His sealing, indwelling, and filling ministries.

We learned that the 'another angel ascending from the rising of the sun' is fulfilled in His Holiness Patriarch John Florentine Teruel; that the men and women wearing white garments are the sealed servants i.e. gentiles, together with those sealed 144,000 from the twelve tribes of Israel.

In the same book of Revelation, there stated the following visions and prophecies:

5:13 And every creature, which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them: I heard all saying: To Him that sitteth on the throne, and to the Lamb, benediction, and honour, and glory, and power, for ever and ever.

7:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying: Salvation to our God, who sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb.

7:9 After this I saw a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne, and in sight of the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands:


All glory and honor to our God, the Holy Spirit, Mahal na Ingkong for if He did not come to us we would not be able to understand the visions of Saint John.

The One Who Sitteth on the Throne is God Almighty, the Alpha and Omega - Mahal na Ingkong. The Throne is St.Maria Virginia, the spouse or bride of the Spirit(Apocalypse 21:9). While our dear Patriarch John Florentine is the 'angel ascending from the rising of the sun, carrying with him the writing case - the seal of the Living God'. While the sealed servants or tinatakan are the people clothed in white with palms on their hands, and the 144,000 are the sealed servants and remnants from the 12 tribes of Israel.
