The Suffering of the Lamb of God dealt a Double Blow

 “Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.”

‭‭Revelation‬ ‭18‬:‭6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

The Angel declared the crushing of the great Babylon, “So repay to her double the same treatment that she has treated others with— pay her back double for all her deeds and make her drink twice the brew she gave to others!”  The Lamb’s suffering dealt a double blow to the whore and beast system.  The counterfeit cup she had mixed, turned on her and proved to be her defeat.  Their apparent initial victory in the brutal, unjust trial and crucifixion of the Lamb turned against their tyranny in double measure - not only were they outwitted in His death, when the document of mankind’s guilt in the scarred body of Jesus was nailed to the Cross, whereby every possible claim against the human race was nullified, but in His resurrection God presented the receipt documenting the justification and redeemed innocence and righteousness of the entire human race.  The judgment that sin brought in its hellish torment as the inevitable consequence upon mankind, is now atoned for in double proportions in the Lamb’s suffering and in the reversal brought upon all principalities and powers. Hallelujah!
