REVELATION SURVEY 9 | THE THREE ANGELS

1. Survey

a) This section gives a brief survey of each section of Revelation and interpretation based on the best mainstream reference materials available.

2. The Three Angels (Revelation 14:6-13)

a) A first angel says, "Fear God and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come." A second angel says, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication." A third angel says, "Those who worship the beast and its image, and receive a mark on their foreheads or on their hands, they will also drink the wine of God's wrath." 

@1. Interpretation: These are warnings of God's impending judgment against the wicked. Babylon was a code name the early Christians used for the city of Rome, capital of the evil Roman Empire. "Those who worship the beast and its image" are those who worship the Roman Emperor instead of God.
