Revelation19:21

21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sate upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth , and all the fowls were filled with their flesh .

In all Armies there are common Souldiers as well as Officers. What the Issue of this Battel shall be, as to the Leaders in it, the former Verse told us: This tells us how it shall fare with those under the Command of them. It seems they shall not be excused because they followed their Leaders, and did only what they bade them; Christ commands that they also should be slain.

And this bloody Day (when ever it comes) will be a Day of great Slaughter; for the dead Bodies will be enough to sup and fill all the Fowls of Heaven.
