A Symbol for Those Who “Offer Themselves Willingly”
8. Why is this the day of Christ’s “military force,” and how do those now offering themselves willingly proceed in this respect?
8 The disciples of that royal High Priest, Christ Jesus, now “offer themselves willingly” on the day of his “military force.” They dedicate themselves to Jehovah God in the name of this royal High Priest, getting baptized in water in symbol of that dedication. These are the ones the complete number of whom must be finally sealed before the outbreak of the “great tribulation.” They, along with their companions of the “great crowd,” “offer themselves willingly” just like dewdrops in bringing God’s refreshing message of salvation to the people.—Revelation 7:2-4, 9, 10, 14.
