Revelation 15:5-8 says, "After these things I looked and behold the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in Heaven was opened. And out of the temple came the seven angels having the seven plaques, clothed in pure bright linen and having their chests girded with golden bands. 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. 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 plaques of the seven angels were completed."
This will be the scene in Heaven just prior to God establishing His Bowl Judgements to complete the pouring out of His Wrath.
Following are the Seven Bowl Judgements and their affects:
First Bowl - Sores upon those worshipping the Beast.
Second Bowl - Blood in the seas killing all the creatures.
Third Bowl - Rivers and springs become blood.
Fourth Bowl - The sun will scorch men with fire.
Fifth Bowl - The kingdom of the Anti-Christ will become dark.
Sixth Bowl - The Euphrates River will dry up so the Kings of the East may pass over. This will be part of the Kings of the earth gathering to invade Jerusalem in the Battle of Armageddon.
Seventh Bowl - Revelation 16:17,21 "Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air and a loud voice came out of the temple of Heaven, from the throne, saying, 'It Is Done!' And men blasphemed God."
It is difficult to believe but after God poured out His Wrath on unbelievers, there will still be those who blaspheme Him and do not accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Those who survive the pouring out of God's Bowl Judgements will then be part of the Battle of Armageddon. Revelation 14:20 says the blood shed during this battle will rise up to horses' bridles.
Looking ahead, we are approaching the completion of the study of Revelation with four messages remaining. We then plan to bring weekly updates on the tense situation in Israel to include ways to Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem using the Book of Psalms.
Blessings,
Frank
