    The Seven Angels with the Seven Last Strikes, Revelation 15:1

    In These Last Strikes the Burning Anger of God is Completed, Revelation 15:1
    Revelation 15:1
    And I discerned another of the same kind of great and marvelous sign in the heaven, seven angels having seven strikes, the last, because by them the burning anger of God is brought to completion.
    A Sign of the Same Kind Expressed Previously in Revelation 12
    The Sign in Heaven Concerning Israel, Revelation 12:1
    Revelation 12:1 NASB95
    A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;
    The Dragon, Revelation 12:3
    Revelation 12:3 NASB95
    Then another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.
    This Sign Also Relates to Israel
    Strike - Public affliction, a blow, a stripe
    The man on his way to Jerusalem overtaken by robbers, Luke 10:30
    Luke 10:30 (NASB95)
    Jesus replied and said, “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, and they stripped him and beat him (πληγὰς), and went away leaving him half dead.
    Plague or Pestilence is a different word, Luke 21:11
    Luke 21:11 (NASB95)
    and there will be great earthquakes, and in various places plagues (λοιμοὶ) and famines; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
    Beatings Paul Endured, 2 Corinthians 6:5
    2 Corinthians 6:5 (NASB95)
    in beatings (πληγαῖς), in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in hunger,
    Only Translated as Plague in the book of Revelation
    Strike has been used prior in the book
    Not for judgments - The wound to the beast, Revelation 13:3
    Revelation 13:3
    And one out from his heads as wounded unto death, and his wound of death was healed and the whole world wondered after the beast
    These seven strikes are the last, but not the last in an order (seven angels having seven strikes, the last)
    They are referred to as the last, because in them the burning anger of God is completed
    God’s inner burning anger is expressed on those who are alive
    It is wrath when seen, Romans 1:18
    Romans 1:18
    For God's wrath is manifested from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, the ones holding down the truth in unrighteousness,
    Expressed by God allowing Those who Reject Him to go their way unhindered to fill up to the full their judgment
    This is a quality of God’s wrath shown today, not the same as will be shown in the tribulation
    After they are done, the burning anger of God is completed
    Judgment is not wrath
    Judgment in righteousness, Revelation 19:11
    Revelation 19:11 NASB95
    And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.
    He who judges righteously, 1 Peter 2:23
    1 Peter 2:23 NASB95
    and while being reviled, He did not revile in return; while suffering, He uttered no threats, but kept entrusting Himself to Him who judges righteously;
    Judgment is completed at the Great White Throne, Revelation 20:11
    Revelation 20:11 NASB95
    Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.

    Those Who Overcame the Beast, Revelation 15:2-4

    The Sea of Glass Mixed with Fire, Revelation 15:2
    Revelation 15:2 NASB95
    And I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had been victorious over the beast and his image and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, holding harps of God.
    In the third Heaven
    The Washbasin Represented in the Temple Which is no longer needed because of Christ sacrifice, Exodus 30:18
    Exodus 30:18 NASB95
    “You shall also make a laver of bronze, with its base of bronze, for washing; and you shall put it between the tent of meeting and the altar, and you shall put water in it.
    The ones standing on the sea have overcome the beast and his image
    Puts us in the Second Half of the Tribulation Period
    These are the ones killed by the beast or his image, Revelation 13:15
    Revelation 13:15
    And it was given to it a spirit to give to the image of the beast, in order that also it should speak, the image of the beast, and it made as many as if perhaps did not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
    They refused to worship him
    They overcame the mark of the beast, Revelation 13:16-17
    Revelation 13:16–17
    And it made all, the small and the great and the rich and the poor and the free and the slave in order that they should give to them a mark upon their right hand or upon their forehead, and in order that someone should not have the ability to buy or to sell except the ones having the mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name.
    They Sing the Song of Moses, Revelation 15:3
    Revelation 15:3
    And they sang the song of Moses, the bondservant of the God,
    The Song of Moses, Deuteronomy 32:1-43
    Worship to God, Deuteronomy 32:1-4
    Calling out the nation for its perversity, Deuteronomy 32:5-6
    Remember what God has done, Deuteronomy 32:7-14
    Israel Forsaking God, Deuteronomy 32:15-18
    The Lord’s Response to Their Sin, Deuteronomy 32:19-35
    He will provoke them to jealousy for their God by a people who are not a people, Deuteronomy 32:21
    His anger will consume the earth, Deuteronomy 32:22-25
    He would have destroyed them if not for their enemy, Deuteronomy 32:26-27
    Israel is a nation that lacks wisdom and understanding, Deuteronomy 32:28-29
    The Lord will vindicate His people, Deuteronomy 32:36-43
    Saved by believing the Message of the 144,000
    They Sing the Song of the Lamb, Revelation 15:3
    Revelation 15:3
    … and the song of the Lamb saying,
    Victory through the blood of the Lamb
    They will sing of their salvation by Christ’s sacrifice and resurrection
    Worshiping God, Revelation 15:3-4
    Revelation 15:3–4
    … “Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord, the God, the Omnipotent, righteous and true are Your ways, the king of the Gentiles. Who will never fear You, Lord, and express a proper opinion of Your name? Because only Holy. Because all the Gentiles will come and worship before You, because Your righteous works have been revealed.”
    Acknowledging His Works
    Acknowledging His Power
    Acknowledging His Righteous and True Ways
    Recognizing His Rule of the Gentiles (The Lamb)
    All Will Fear Him, for there are none that will not fear Him
    All the Gentiles will come and worship Him

    The Seven Angels are Given Seven Bowls, Revelation 15:5-8

    The Holy of Holies is Opened, Revelation 15:5
    Revelation 15:5
    And after these things I discerned and the Holy of Holies of the tabernacle of the testimony in the heaven was opened
    In the Third Heaven
    The Curtain Covering it is Opened
    Seven Angels with Seven Strikes, Revelation 15:6
    Revelation 15:6
    and the seven angels came out, having the seven strikes out from the Holy of Holies. These ones are dressed in garments, clean and bright and have gird around their chest belts of gold.
    One of the four Cherubim before the throne gives the angels seven bowls, Revelation 15:7
    Revelation 15:7
    And one out from the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls, being full of the burning anger of the living God into the ages of the ages.
    The Holy of Holies is filled with Smoke, Revelation 15:8
    Revelation 15:8
    And the Holy of Holies was filled with smoke out from the glory of the God and out from His inherent ability and no one had the ability to enter into the Holy of Holies until the seven strikes of the seven angels were finished.
    No More Angels are Entering Into the Temple During This Time
    The Seven Angels have already received the seven bowls
    The Bowls Finish the Inner Burning Anger of God
    Not a restriction to anyone entering
    Those who are victorious over the beast are entering the Temple

    The First Strike, Revelation 16:1-2

    The Angels are instructed to pour out their bowls upon the earth, Revelation 16:1
    Revelation 16:1
    And I heard a great voice out from the Holy of Holies, saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven bowls of the burning anger of the God onto the earth.”
    The First Bowl, Revelation 16:2
    Revelation 16:2
    And the first came and poured out his bowl on the earth and there came to be bad and malignant sores upon the humans, the one having the mark of the beast and the ones worshiping his image
    The content of the bowl impacts those who have the mark of the beast
    The content of the bowl impacts those who worship the image of the beast
    These sores lack in character.
    Not a normal sore
    It does not react in a way that would be expected
    These sores spread
    Transmitted through contact from person to person and upon the body
    The Seven Angels with the Seven Last Strikes
    Those Who Overcame the Beast The Seven Angels are Given Seven Bowls
