People have been yearning for the day that evil is overthrown. Rejoicing on the part of God’s people is only natural as an outcome of vindication. So, when we read in Revelation 18 (some of which I will skip for the sake of vignettes in our “Revelation in 40” study) verse 1 and following, “After […]

There are two responses to horror and tragedy: one is a desire to be part of the gapers delay and know what’s going on, but then there is also the thought that you really don’t want to see because of what’s coming. In a movie, you cover your eyes until it’s over. John didn’t have […]

Things are getting really heated and the war will begin soon. As we continue our look at “Revelation in 40” for Lent, the way has been prepared for the adversaries to show up and engage in their demonically inspired war. Revelation 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and […]

Revelation 15:2 And I saw what looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious over the beast and its image and over the number of its name. They held harps given them by God 3 and sang the song of God’s servant Moses and […]

As we continue our study of the Book of Revelation in 40 vignettes during Lent, we see the world stage being set for the battle to beat all battles…the war to beat all other wars. Revelation 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up […]

The bowls are being poured out and the wrath is intense. Revelation 16:8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was allowed to scorch people with fire. 9 They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but […]

Every few days, it’s good to recap because “Revelation in 40” risks glossing over the Bible’s timeline. The seven churches were given words of encouragement and warning to overcome. Seals were opened, 1-6 and then 7. Trumpets were sounded, 1-6 and then 7. The sixth trumpet sounded in Revelation 9, “And the four angels who […]

Revelation 15:5 After this I looked, and I saw in heaven the temple– that is, the tabernacle of the covenant law– and it was opened. 6 Out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues. They were dressed in clean, shining linen and wore golden sashes around their chests. 7 Then one […]

In Revelation in 40, we’ve now arrived at the great climax of the conflict between good and evil. There will be no more interludes or pauses as there were with the seals (1-6 and then 7) or the trumpets (1-6 and then 7). Once God gets started with bowls of wrath, He isn’t going to […]

Let’s recap for a moment in our study of “Revelation in 40”. Seven churches received warnings and encouragement for the Last Days. They were instructed to overcome. And there were those who did so, overcoming “by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so […]
