With the total number of his king-priest associates sealed and the sheep identified and placed on his right hand for salvation, Christ can go on to “complete his conquest.” (Rev. 5:9, 10; 6:2) At the head of an army of powerful angels, he will destroy Satan’s entire political, military, and commercial system on earth. (Rev. 2:26, 27; 19:11-21) Then he will abyss Satan and the demons for a thousand years. (Rev. 20:1-3) Speaking of the “great crowd” of other sheep, who will survive the great tribulation, the apostle John prophesied using the words of today’s text. (Rev. 7:9) Yes, throughout his Thousand Year Reign, Christ will continue to lead the other sheep, who truly listen to his voice, and guide them to everlasting life. (John 10:16, 26-28) May we faithfully follow our royal Leader—now and on into Jehovah’s promised new world! w10 9/15 5:16, 17
