Introduction

Do not let a little bitterness come into our lives

If the tribulation saints can come through the great tribulation and still singing,

Then we should certainly have a song in our hearts regardless of our circumstances

The psalmist wrote, “for his anger endured but a moment; in his favor is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning (Psalms 30:5)

The book of Revelation is Christocentric, that is, Christ centered.

Don't let the four Horsemen carry you away, or don't be distracted by the blowing of the trumpets or by the seven performers. And don't let your interests center on these bowls of wrath.

Let's keep our eyes centered on Christ.

He is in charge, he is the Lord. In the book of Revelation we have the unveiling of Jesus Christ and his holiness, and his power, and in his glory.

He is the one that can put his hand in the hand of God and who can put his other hand in the hand of man and bring them together. He can do this because he is God.

Which brings me to my first point

I. Fear and Glory

Revelation 15:4 NKJV

4 Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, For Your judgments have been manifested.”

see note on Fear -

How to walk in the Fear of the Lord! Today, few people speak of having a reverential fear of the Lord or of giving glory to him. We seem to think there is something wrong with these. But this is so important today on earth and in Heaven for three reasons:

Jesus should be feared and glorified because he alone is holy. He is the only One to live by all of God’s standards, the only One worthy of our worship, the only One who never sinned. He has been hallowed or set apart for God’s special purpose: which is the atonement for our sin.

Jesus should be feared and glorified because he will be worshiped by all nations. The day will come when he will deal with the godless leaders of this world. He will do away with them, and every nation will worship him.

Jesus should be feared and glorified because his righteous acts will be revealed. The terrible judgments of the Tribulation Period will be righteous acts of Jesus. He will deal with those who do not accept his mercy.

Peter and Paul Lalonde - According to opinion polls, an overwhelming majority of North Americans believe they will spend eternity in heaven (about 93 to 95 percent). Yet it is obvious from the moral decay and decadence in the West that such a majority do not have the love of Christ in their hearts.

II. Under the Law

Revelation 15:5 (NKJV)

5 After these things I looked, and behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.

The temple in heaven will be opened. Then the Holy of Holies inside the Temple will be opened, followed by the ark of the covenant inside the Holy of Holies. The ark of the covenant contains the Ten Commandments which are sometimes called the Law or the Testimony.

Those who reject the grace and mercy God offers through the death, burial, and resurrection of his Son will be judged under the Law (the Ten Commandments). In rejecting what God offers, they also reject Jesus. Many, including the Jews, do not realize this most important point. By rejecting Jesus, they reject God, and leave themselves open to be judged under the Law of Moses in the Old Testament.

The Law of Moses was given to reveal sin not to take sin away. Sin can only be taken away by the Lamb of God (Jesus).

III. The Seven Angels of God’s Wrath

Revelation 15:7 (NKJV)

7 Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives forever and ever.

One of the four living creatures will hand the seven angels seven bowls filled with the wrath of God.

Some Bible translations call these bowls “vials,” but that does not do justice to the meaning of this verse. When a vial is turned upside down the liquid bubbles out slowly,

but when a bowl is upset the liquid is suddenly dumped out.

That is the picture we have here. God’s wrath will be suddenly dumped out on the inhabitants of earth.

In the Old Testament, once a year on the Day of Atonement*,

the high priest would take a bowl of blood from a sacrificial animal into the Holy of Holies and dump it on the mercy seat over the ark of the covenant.

God had him do that to offer atonement for the sins of the people. Since the Antichrist and his followers will not accept the blood of Jesus as an atonement for their sins,

these priestly angels will be given bowls filled with God’s wrath instead of the blood of Jesus. And instead of dumping the bowls on the mercy seat, they will dump them on the earth.

First, the four living creatures summon the four horsemen. Now the four living creatures summon the seven angels of God’s wrath.

Jim Combs - Man never gets away with sin and rebellion. In the final stages of the Tribulation, these “seven last plagues” are poured out on a Christ-rejecting world, run amok after Satan and the false religious worship that focuses on the image of the beast.

IV. No More!

Revelation 15:8 (NKJV)

8 The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.

Things just keep getting worse for those who reject God.

When the priestly angels leave the temple, it will be filled with smoke from the glory and power of God.

No one will be able to go back in or enter the Holy of Holies. No one can change their mind and pour blood on the mercy seat.

There will be no more mercy, no more delays, and no more opportunities to repent until the seven plagues have passed.

This is a warning to those on earth who won’t listen to the pleas of God made through his messengers—

the 144,000 Jews, the two witnesses, the angel, and others. At some point in the Tribulation Period, God will say, “It’s over.

The destiny of those who keep rejecting my Son is sealed forever.”

He will pour out his wrath, keep people away from the mercy seat, and refuse to hear the pleas of those crying out for one more chance.

Chapter Wrap-Up

• The third great sign John will see will be seven angels carrying the seven last plagues, which will complete God’s wrath. (Revelation 15:1) • Standing beside the sea of glass mixed with fire will be those who will be victorious over the Antichrist. They will receive harps and sing about the deeds of Christ. (Revelation 15:2–4)

• Those who overcome the Antichrist will sing the song of the Lamb. They will sing about: his marvelous deeds, his just and true ways, and his holiness. (Revelation 15:3–4)

• Anyone who rejects Christ and his gift of eternal life will be judged according to the Law of Moses (the Ten Commandments). (Revelation 15:5)

The Law of Moses was given to reveal sin not to take sin away. Sin can only be taken away by the Lamb of God (Jesus).

Receive Jesus while you still have a chance!

John 3:16 NKJV

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Romans 10:13 NKJV

13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

If you’d would like to receive Jesus today, please pray this prayer

Lord I believe that Jesus is the son of God, and that He died On the cross for my sins and His resurrection from the dead gives me eternal life. I ask forgiveness of my sins, and I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Amen.
