Every One of Them

Revelation 6:11 KJV
And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

The Bible says of those that "were slain for the Word of God and for the testimony which they held" that "white robes were given unto every one of them."

Not of few of them
Not the most influential of them
Not the most famous among them
Not many of them or even
Most of them

The Bible says those white robes were given to every one of them.

God sees things through a different sort of lens than we do. We judge and categorize people. We divide the children of God into classes of
Faithfulness
Effectiveness and
Value


God just says that every one of them gets a white robe.

I am so looking forward to that day in heaven when we no longer view one another in an unwritten hierarchy but see each child of God as just what he is, redeemed in the blood of Jesus Christ.
