9Y el tercer ángel los siguió, diciendo en alta voz: Si alguno adora á la bestia y á su imagen, y toma la señal en su frente, ó en su mano,
10Este también beberá del vino de la ira de Dios, el cual está echado puro en el cáliz de su ira; y será atormentado con fuego y azufre delante de los santos ángeles, y delante del Cordero:
11Y el humo del tormento de ellos sube para siempre jamás. Y los que adoran á la bestia y á su imagen, no tienen reposo día ni noche, ni cualquiera que tomare la señal de su nombre.

(Ap. 14:8‑12)
 Opposed to God, the heads of Israel were merely men. In saying this, all was decided: the opposition between them and God was evident. (Acts 5 by J.N. Darby)
 Obedience must be to God rather than men. This is the great practical principle of faith, as it was the uniform characteristic of Christ in all perfection here below. “Lo, I come to do thy will, O God:” not miracles, not doing good, not teaching, not zeal, so much as unqualified and unfailing obedience rendered to God. (Acts 5:21-32 by W. Kelly)
 Hence, though he may have sometimes to wait on God for light, obedience is the invariable place and duty of the believer. It is never a question of his rights; he is called to obey. (Acts 5:21-32 by W. Kelly)
 If collision come between God's word and the ruler's requirement, his path is clear: God must be obeyed, but in suffering perhaps, not resistance to authority. He is always to obey, though in some cases it may be God rather than men. (Acts 5:21-32 by W. Kelly)
 Obedience gives distrust in self and meekness in doing God's will. (Acts 5:21-32 by W. Kelly)
