In these last and evil days it is imperative that we have discernment. We cannot afford to get caught up or admire the wrong thing. We must know the purpose and the intent of what we are admiring. What John admired was in total opposition against God, so much so that the angel had to get his attention and made him see that what he was admiring, was working directly against God. In this day not only can we not afford to operate in discernment but also in Godly wisdom understanding that anything that will cause to go against God's word must be abated at all cost
