Revelation 14
In my reading this morning, as John records the events of angels and the great torment and destruction of the wicked, I couldn't I couldn't help but note "who are they" that are considered the righteous where -
"...These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb." (New Testament | Revelation 14:4)
"...having his Father's name written in their foreheads." (New Testament | Revelation 14:1)
...which suggests to me that their focus, desires, and actions are towards Him where -
"...their mouth was found no guile..." (New Testament | Revelation 14:5)
These -
"...are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." (New Testament | Revelation 14:12)
I hope everyone noticed the two conditions, faith and keeping all His commandments for -
"...their works do follow them." (New Testament | Revelation 14:13)
Those that teach otherwise are wrest the scriptures at their own risk.
