Verse 14
At the very end of the Tribulation these kings will fight against Jesus Christ as He returns to earth (cf. Revelation 16:14; Revelation 16:16; Revelation 19:19-21). The Lamb will defeat them and will prove to be Lord of lords and King of kings (Revelation 19:16), the title Antichrist seeks to claim in his worldwide empire.
Those with Christ accompany Him from heaven (cf. Revelation 19:14). They are the called, the elect, and the faithful. These are probably three terms for the same group, namely, believers, rather than three different groups of believers. The three terms become progressively more specific. Those chosen for salvation are elected by the Father (cf. Ephesians 1:4-5). They are the same ones who then respond to God’s grace by faithfully believing on Him. These believers who accompany Christ from heaven will be Christians and saints who died during the Tribulation.
