The pagan persecutors who now tread the holy city underfoot (Rev. 11:2) will be trodden underfoot by the church's mighty avenger (14:20). Their defiling blood pours from a winepress \"outside the city,\" for those who belong to earth's so-called \"great city,\" which wages war on God's church (11:8; 17:18), have no share in God's holy, heavenly city. No one unclean shall ever enter the holy city, the new Jerusalem, \"but only those whose navies are written in the Lamb's book of life\" (21:27).”",
