Revelation 7:2 Revelation 7:2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, This other angel is Christ, called the Angel of God. \ And the Angel of the Covenant. \ He is said to ascend from the east, because he is the day-spring from on high, who will give light to them that sit in darkness. \ And he is also called the Sun of Righteousness, \ who will rise unto and shine on the latter-day saints. \ Having the seal of the living God; that is, the certain knowledge who are his, \ for all God’ s elect are chosen in him, \ and given Him of the Father, \ and Christ must loose none of them. \ HE hath redeemed them with his precious blood, \ and hath sealed them with his Holy Spirit. \ And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it is given to hurt the earth and the sea. Given, that is, permissive God did suffer them to do, but the time of their power was retained by Christ, who is the head of all principalities and powers. \ HE is their sovereign Lord, and they are his creatures. \
