Revelation
Lesson 12Revelation 16
This week we will examine the final seven judgements and prepare to study the fall of the two Babylons.
As we approach the climax of the Book of Revelation with the impending return of Christ we now turn our studies to the most horrendous events ever unleashed on the earth and mankind, known as the seven vial judgements and the fall of Mystery Babylon.
Questions For Our 12th Week
- It has taken 15 chapters to go through the seven seal and seven trumpet judgments how much further do we have to read to see the last seven judgments revealed? (Rev 16:17)
- What can we discern from this observation?
- Who are the last judgments brought on? (Rev 16:2 for example)
- How do verses 2-12 compare with Revelation 6:2-8 and 14:20?
- Read Chapter 16 and list the 7 plague judgments by verse:
- Verse 2
- Verse 3
- Verse 4
- Verse 8
- Verse 10
- Verse 12
- Verse 19-21
- Who is being judged in Verse 4? (See Verse 6)
- Read Revelation 16:12. What other times in biblical history has God done this? (Exodus 14:16 and Joshua 3:14-17)
- Can you find an unholy trinity in verse 13? How?
- What does verse 17 mean?
- Several things happen in verses 19-21. To help better understand them look up the following references – what do they tell you about the meaning of the symbol “isles” and what is being pictured in 19-21? (Genesis 10:5, Isaiah 13:22, Isaiah 20:6, Isaiah 23:6, Isaiah 40:15 and Isaiah 51:5)
- In verse 19 there is a reference to the “great city” – who is this? (Revelation 14:8)
