In chapter 15, John saw a sea of glass with fire. Fire speaks of judgment. He saw those who resisted worshiping the beast sang the song of liberation. And saw 7 angels in heaven, each was given a bowl by one of the 4 living creatures & smoke filled the place. Smoke speaks of God’s glory.
In chapter 16, a voice was heard telling the 7 angels to pour out the bowls of judgment, God's wrath. Discover what these plagues are. We read Revelation so that we'll be awake. Certainly, these will come. “Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who stays awake.” Be aware! This tells us that man, reaches the point that they cannot repent, God showed warnings for thousands of years yet insists on rejecting God. God will wipe them out.
In chapter 17, Babylon is revealed & identified as a city that controls the world economically powerful. The god of this world, as we come to the last days is the idol called ‘money.’ But money is not power, might is right (military power).
Chapter 18 is about the Fall of Babylon. God is telling us, Christians we're much sucked on this earth. The minds of sinful men lifting himself up. Babylonish ideas. There's only one Kingdom that will last. Be a part of God’s Kingdom, lay treasures in heaven, doing things in God's name that people may know Christ & experience AGAPE love, "Come into the Kingdom of God where there is true peace, joy, satisfaction, & true riches.”
