  Speaker 1: The three worst judgments of the Book of Revelation Number
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: one seals the Seven Seals. Revelation six to sixteen cover
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Satan on Earth. The seven seals are part of God's
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Final Judgments. Revelation six, verses one to seventeen details the seals.
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: The action begins in Revelation chapter five with the search
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: for someone in heaven and on earth, someone worthy of
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: breaking the seals and opening the scroll. The seven seals
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: in Heaven, according to John's vision, hold a scroll, and
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: as each seal is broken, a new judgment is unleashed
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: upon the world. John writes, I saw in the right
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: hand of him who sat on the throne a book
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: written inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: The scroll includes God's judgments. No one was judged worthy
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: to break the seals and unlock the scroll, which saddened John.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: If the scroll could not be opened, evil would not
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: be judged, and evil would continue to plague the earth.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: As John weeps over the unopened scroll and its seven
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: intact seals, he receives excellent news. The lion of the
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: tribe of Judah, the root of David, has triumphed. He
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: This is a representation of Jesus Christ, the slain Lamb,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: who is also the lion of judgment. As Jesus takes
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: the scroll to open the seals and deliver judgment to
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: the unbelieving world, the beings in heaven glorify him with
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: a new song Revelation five, verse nine. And they sang
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: a new song, saying, you are worthy to take the
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: book and to open its seals, for you were slain,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: and with your blood you purchased for God persons from
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: every tribe, language, people, and nation. John five, verse twenty two. Moreover,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: to the Son. The Lamb begins to open the seals
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: amidst the worship due to him. The scroll can be
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: unrolled a bit more with each seal opened, exposing the
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: judgments that God has reserved for the time of tribulation.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Bit by bit. The first four of the seven seals open,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: releasing what are known as the four Horsemen of the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Apocalypse because the judgments appear metaphorically as a horse and
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: rider leaving destruction in their path. The first seal Revelation six,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: verses one and two. And when the Lamb opened one
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: of the seals, I heard, as it were, the noise
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, come and see.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: And I looked and behold a white horse. And he
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: that sat on him had a bow, and a crown
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: was given unto him, and he went forth conquering, and
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to conquer the second seal. A great war breaks out
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: in the world when the Lamb releases the second seal.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: This is represented by a rider on a fiery red
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: horse wielding a great sword Revelation six, verses three and four.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And when he had opened the second seal, I heard
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the second beast say, come and see. And there went
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: out another horse that was red, and power was given
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: and that they should kill one another. And there was
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: given unto him a great sword. The fiery red horse
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: of the second Seal represents chaos. Following the initial period
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: of peace that precedes the tribulation, the world will degenerate
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: into violence, with people trying to destroy each other. The
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: third Seal famine results from the breaking of the third
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: of the seven seals Revelation six, verses five and six,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and when he had opened the third seal, I heard
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the third beast say, come and see, And I beheld
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: a lower black horse, and he that sat on him
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: had a pair of balances in his hand. And I
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: a measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: of barley for a penny. And see thou hurt not
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the oil and the wine the fourth seal. When the
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: fourth seal is broken, John sees a pale horse. It's
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: right Ida was named Death, and Hades followed close behind.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: As a result of the fourth seal, a quarter of
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: the world's population is killed by sword, famine, and pestilence,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: as well as by the wild beasts of the earth
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Revelation six, verses seven and eight. And when he had
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: fourth beast say, come and see. And I looked and
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: behold a pale horse. And his name that sat on
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: to kill with sword and with hunger, and with death,
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: and with the beasts of the earth. Don't forget to
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: leave alike and subscribe to the channel. Now that you've
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: done that, let's get to the video. The fifth seal.
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: The fifth seal of the scroll indicates those who would
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: be martyred throughout the tribulation for their faith in Christ
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Revelation six, verses nine to eleven. When the lamb broke
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: of those who had been martyred for the word of
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: God and for remaining faithful in their testimony. They cried
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: out in a loud voice, how long, Sovereign Lord, Holy
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and True, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and avenge our blood. Then each of them was given
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: a white robe, and they were told to rest a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: little longer until the number of their fellow servants and
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: their brothers who were to be killed as they had been,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: was completed the sixth seal. When the lamb of God
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: breaks the sixth seal, a great earthquake occurs, causing massive
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: destruction and extraordinary astronomical phenomena. The sun turns black as sackcloth,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: the moon becomes red as blood, and the heavens recede
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: island were moved from their places. Revelation six, verses twelve
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: to fourteen. I watched as the Lamb opened the sixth seal.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black as sackcloth,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: and the moon became like blood. Then the stars of
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: Heaven fell to the earth, like unripe figs falling from
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: a fig tree shaken by a strong wind. The sky
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and island was moved from its place. Survivors of the
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: sixth Seal, regardless of their social status, seek shelter in caves,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: and call to the mountains and rocks. Fall on us
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: and hide us from the face of him who sits
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: For the great day of their wrath has come, And
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: who can stand? A pause in the Book of Revelation
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: follows the opening of six of the seven seals, the
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: seventh seal Revelation eight, verse one. When the Lamb broke
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: the seventh seal, there was silence in Heaven for about
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: half an hour. The judgments that led to the end
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of the tribulation are now evident in the scroll and
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: they are so severe that all of Heaven falls silent.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: The seventh seal clearly announces the beginning of the next
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: round of judgments, as John immediately sees seven angels with
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: seven trumpets ready to sound. An eighth angel takes a
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: censer and burns much incense, indicating the petitions of God's
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: people Revelation eight, verse five. Then the angel filled the
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: censer with fire from the altar and hurled it to
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: the earth, and there were peals of thunder, voices, flashes
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: of lightning, and an earthquake. When the judgments of the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: seven seals are completed, the second phase of the tribulation,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: which includes the judgments of the seven trumpets, will begin
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the seven Trumpets. In Revelation chapters eight and nine, John
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: describes a time close to the end of the world
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: when angels will sound seven trumpets. Each trumpet heralds the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: arrival of a new round of judgments upon the peoples
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: of the earth. The seven trumpets are described in Revelation
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: eight and nine, as well as in Revelation eleven, verses
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: fifteen to nineteen. The trumpets represent disasters. The judgments announced
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: by the seven trumpets will occur during the tribulation period
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: at the end of the world. Seven angels who stand
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: in the presence of God are given seven trumpets, which
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: will be used to trigger another round of judgments. The
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: first trumpet revelation eight, verse seven. The first angel sounded
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: and it was hurled down upon the earth. A third
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: of the earth was burned up, a third of the
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: trees were burned up, and all the green grass was
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: burned up. This plague destroys a third of the world's
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: trees and consumes all the grass. This judgment bears some
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: resemblance to the Seventh Plague of Egypt. The second Trumpet
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Revelation eight, verses eight and nine. Then the second angel
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: sounded his trumpet, and something like a large mountain, all
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: ablaze was thrown into the sea. A third of the
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: sea tee turned into blood. A third of the living
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: creatures in the sea died, and a third of the
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: ships were destroyed. In heaven, a second angel sounds a trumpet,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and the result is that something like a huge mountain,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: all in flames, was thrown into the sea. A third
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: of the sea transforms into blood, a third of the
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: ship's sink, and a third of ocean life dies. This
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: judgment is somewhat similar to the first plague of Egypt.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Revelation eight, verses ten and eleven. Then the third angel
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: sounded his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: burning like a torch. It fell on a third of
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: the rivers and on the springs of water. The name
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: of the star was wormwood. It made a third of
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the water's bitter, and many people died from drinking the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: bitter water. The judgment of the third trumpet is similar
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: to the second, except it affects the world's freshwater lakes
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: and rivers instead of the ocean. Specifically, a large star,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: burning like a torch, falls from the sky and poisons
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: a third of the water supply. Revelation eight, verses twelve
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: and thirteen. Then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: a third of the sun was struck, as well as
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: a third of the moon, and a third of the stars,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: so that a third of them turned dark. A third
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: of the day was without light, as well as a
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: third of the night. Then I looked and heard an
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: eagle flying in mid air, calling out in a loud voice,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: woe woe woe to the inhabitants of the earth because
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: of the other trumpet blasts of the three angels who
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: are yet to sound. After the judgment of the fourth trumpet,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: John observes a special warning given by an eagle flying
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: through the sky. This eagle cries out in a loud voice, woe, woe,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of what
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: will happen when the last three angels sound their trumpets.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: For this reason, the fifth, sixth, and seventh trumpets are
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: referred to as the three Woes. The fifth trumpet, the
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: angel of the Abyss, serves as king of these demonic locusts.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: In Hebrew, he is known as Abadon and in Greek
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: as Apollion, which means destroyer. These beings will be given
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: authority to torture anyone who does not have the seal
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: of God. The pain they will cause will be so
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: excruciating that the sufferers will wish to die. Abadon Apollion
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: is the ruler of the Abyss and king of these
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: demonic locusts. The sixth trumpet, the sixth trumpet, and the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: second Woe heralds the arrival of another demonic Horde. When
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: the sixth trumpet sounds, a voice from the altar of
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: God requests the release of the four angels who are
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: bound at the great river Euphrates. These four evil angels
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: command a supernatural cavalry of tens of thousands to kill
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: a third of mankind the seventh trumpet. Then the seventh
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: so saying, the kingdom of the world has become the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: will reign forever and ever. Revelation eleven, verse fifteen. The
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: judgments of the seven trumpets come to an end. Everything
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: is prepared for the seven angels with the seven bowls
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: of God's wrath. These angels are standing inside the now
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: open temple, ready to move forward and bring the final
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: judgments upon the earth, the seven bowls of Revelation. The
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: concept of the bols, often referred to as the bowls
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: of wrath or vials of wrath, is found in the
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Book of Revelation, which is the last book of the Bible. Essentially,
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: these bowls are like containers of God's wrath. At this time,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: people have already done much evil especially under the leadership
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: of someone called the Antichrist. Before the seven bols are
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: poured out, there is a series of other events and judgments.
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: The first bowl, Revelation sixteen, begins with a powerful voice
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: from the temple telling the seven angels go and pour
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: out on the earth the seven bowls of God's wrath.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Then the first angel went and poured out his bowl
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: on the earth, and foul and painful sores appeared on
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the people who had the mark of the Beast and
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: worshiped its image. The second bowl, following the first bowl,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: which brought painful sores upon those who had the mark
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: of the Beast, the heavens prepared for another significant act.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: The angel moved forward in his hand held the bowl
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: filled with a mysterious liquid. Then the second Angel poured
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: out his bowl on the sea, and it turned into
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: blood like that of a dead person, and every living
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: thing in the sea died. The third bowl, the rivers
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: and water springs are not spared either, They too are
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: turned into blood water. The essence of life is transformed
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: into a symbol of death. Then the third angel poured
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: out his bowl on the rivers and the springs of water,
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: and they became blood. This complete contamination contrasts with the
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: partial pollution of a third of the fresh water shone
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: in Revelation eight. The Fourth Bowl. It was the time
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: for the fourth Bowl. An angel moved forward, holding the
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: next vessel of judgment. The target of this bowl was
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: neither the earth nor the water, but the very sun
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: that lights up the sky Revelation sixteen, verse eight. And
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: the fourth Angel poured out his bowl on the Sun,
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: and it was allowed to scorch people with fire. Suddenly
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: things began to change. The Sun, which had always been
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: a source of light, warmth, and sustenance, was given a
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: new and dreadful power. The fifth Bowl. Under the command
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: of the heavens, the fifth Angel departed, directing his bowl
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: not at the seas, mountains or rivers, but directly at
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: the throne of the beast, the epicenter of wickedness Revelation sixteen,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: verse ten. And the fifth Angel poured out his bowl
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: on the throne of the Beast, and his kingdom was
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: plunged into darkness, and people gnawed their tongues in agony
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: because of their excruciating suffering and severe torment. When this
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: bowl was poured out, it caused the sun to disappear,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: turning the realm of the beast completely dark. Imagine a
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: world without any light, where it is so dark that
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: you can see nothing. This darkness was not calm or comforting.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: It felt heavy and left people truly uncomfortable. The profound darkness, however,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: was just the beginning of their torment. The sixth bowl
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: in the hands of the sixth Angel was the bowl
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: full of God's judgment. It was clear that this vessel
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: had a divine purpose, and the angel understood the gravity
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: of its content. The entire cosmos seemed to pause in
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: anticipation of what was about to happen Revelation sixteen, verse twelve,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: and the sixth Angel poured out his bowl on the
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Great River Euphrates and its war were dried up to
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: prepare the way for the Kings from the east. As
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: the waters of the Great River Euphrates dwindled, what use
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: to block the path now became a clear way. The
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Euphrates River, an extension of the Fertile Crescent area, is
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: a significant landmark in the Scriptures and a valuable resource
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: in the Middle East as it flows through Turkey, Syria,
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: and Iraq. The seventh Bowl in the heavens. The scene
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: was dramatic, the seventh Angel with the last bowl of
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: God's punishment, prepared to pour it out. This was not
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: just any bowl. It was like the final chapter of
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: all the judgments that came before it, truly showing how
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: severe and final God's decision was. Revelation sixteen, verses one
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: to seventeen. Then the seventh Angel poured out his bowl
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: into the air, and a loud voice came out of
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the temple from the throne of God, saying, it is done.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: It is finished. The moment has come. If Revelation talks
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: about the end of the world in God's final plan,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: and with each bowl poured the urgency and severity of
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: God's judgment become clearer. The purpose of the events described
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: is not to cause fear, but to emphasize the significant
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: consequences of a society that rejects its creator. The story
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: presents God's wrath and the judgment serve as a profound
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: testimony of God's righteous indignation against the wickedness and rebellion
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: of humanity. As each bowl is poured out, the earth
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: experiences unprecedented calamities from painful sores afflicting people Revelation sixteen
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: verse two. To the Sun burning the earth with intense
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: heat Revelation sixteen verse eight. Let us pray, Dear Lord.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: We thank you for your guidance and your protection. We
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: ask for forgiveness for our sins, both known and unknown.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: We ask that you guide us from now until eternity.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: In the name of Jesus, we pray Amen.
