171Those that have washed their lives in My [Jesus] Blood are truly blessed and they will have permission to enter the gates of the city and eat from the tree of life.

169Then the he continued to instruct John, "Do not seal these prophetic words in this book, because the time is so near.

If a person is doing harm, let him continue to do harm; if one is vile, let that one continue to be vile; if one is righteous, let that one continue to be righteous; and the one that is holy, continue to be holy."
168I, John, testify to you that I am the one that saw and heard all these things. And when it happened I fell down at the angel's feet to worship and the angel said to me, "Don't ever worship me because I'm just like you and your brother's, sisters and prophets and all who follow and obey what is written in this book.
Worship God only!"
Worship God only!"

And the leaves were used to heal the nations.
