The Cycle of the Seven Last Plagues (Revelation 15:5-16:21)
Seven angels appear in rapid succession, a global war begins — and, just as suddenly, ends.
Seven angels appear in rapid succession, a global war begins — and, just as suddenly, ends.
One of the seven last angels carries John away for a detailed look at what went on just before the end of the world.
Another angel triggers a fourth interlude, giving John a close up look as the dragon’s global coalition collapses in upon itself.
As Babylon the Great crumbles away into eternal silence, John’s attention is caught by a sound like the world’s loudest rock concert.
The fourth interlude comes to an end, the end-times action resumes, and the nations find out creation would like to have them for supper.
John — expecting a vision of the final judgement — finds himself suddenly caught up in a thousand-year-long interlude. But is it?
As the thousand-year war comes to an end, John watches as the Ancient of Days descends to the battlefield for the final judgement.
John is carried away in the Spirit to a high mountain, but where is he really? Is this earth or heaven — or both?
John ends up back where he began, back at the beginning of all things; but now the revelation is complete and it is time to publish.
Four young men are sent to university and offered power at the very centre of the empire. Will they be able to resist?
