Chapter 15
I.
JOHN SEES ANOTHER SIGN, VV. 1-2
A. This sign which John sees is the third and final of three in the book of Revelation.
B. The word for sign is sēmeion in the greek and it occurs in two other places in the
book with itʼs meaning being more than just a miracle or wonder but actually a sign
which John saw.
See Rev. 12:1, 3.
C. “…great and marvellous…”
1.
These words introduce to us the contrast between this chapter and the last
verses of the last chapter.
2. It says in Revelation 14:14 “And I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and upon
the cloud one sat like unto the son of man…” These words are most solemn and
somber because the remaining verses of chapter 14 show us the gathering of all
nations to be judged by God.
There is a great harvest that John sees and itʼs
that of the men of the world being harvested and gathered to be crushed in
Godʼs wrath.
3.
In this chapter John sees a great a marvelous sign because he sees the saints
in heaven worshiping and adoring their Lord and being vindicated for the wrong
that was done to them.
D. “…for in them is filled up the wrath of God…”
1.
The phrase “is filled up” means finished or fulfilled.
In the next chapter we will
see the consummation of the wrath of almighty God being poured out upon man
on earth and after that the seconding coming of Christ will occur.
E. “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire…”
1.
The sea of glass or glassy sea speaks of the holiness of God or the Word of
God.
Either or works because the character of God and the Word of God are
both holy.
2. The saints are seen as standing on this glassy sea so this is obviously not a
typical sea that John sees.
The fact that the saints are able to stand upon it
speaks to us of Godʼs faithfulness in upholding His people.
F. “…and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and
over his mark, [and] over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having
the harps of God.”
1.
This company are no doubt the martyred dead who were destroyed by the beast
of Revelation 13:1-10
2. They have harps by which they offer up worshipful music unto their worthy Lord.
This and the trumpet are the only two instruments mentioned in Revelation.
II.
THE SONG OF MOSES AND OF THE LAMB, VV. 3-4
A. The song of Moses could be from Exodus 15 or Deuteronomy 32.
In both of these
references there is a song of Moses.
Scholars disagree as to which one is being
spoken of in Revelation 15.
B. The fact is both really work!
You can find all the elements of the song in Revelation
15 in both of the songs found in the books of Moses.
C. “…Great and marvellous [are] thy works…”
1.
This could refer to the past workings of God or probably looks ahead at what will
take place not to long from now.
D. “…Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name?”
1.
This indicates to us that this is yet to happen in the future and a historical view to
this passage and the book of Revelation canʼt be applied.
The whole world will
one day acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord to the glory of the Father.
This has
yet to happen!
Praise God for that we are told here and elsewhere in scripture
that it surely will happen one day!
2. “God alone is the only true holy one (Greek hosios; not the usual word for “holy,”
stressing absolute rightness).
God alone is completely right–by very definition–
and therefor, sooner or later, all must someday fear Him, glorify Him, worship
Him.1 ”
3. God has said it plainly to us,
“I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth [in] righteousness,
and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall
swear.”
Isaiah 45:23
