SEVEN FINAL VISIONS (2-3) | KINGS OF EARTH (REVELATION 18:9-10)
1. Revelation
a) John wrote Revelation while a prisoner on the Island of Patmos, approximately 85-95 A.D. Its purpose is to give encouragement and hope for all Christians to continue watching for the return and triumph of the Lord Jesus Christ. It also is to warn of the Final Judgment that nonbelievers will endure on that Last Day.
b) John wrote that Revelation is special because,“Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it; for the time is near” (Revelation 1:3).
c) A brief view of the Book of Revelation. It gives you some basic understanding of the book of Revelation.
2. Lament For Babylon
Revelation 18:9-10
9 “And the kings of the earth, who committed acts of immorality and lived sensuously with her, will weep and lament over her when they see the smoke of her burning, 10 standing at a distance because of the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For in one hour your judgment has come.’
3. Kings Of earth
Revelation 18:9-10
a) Kings of the earth
i) Within the voice from heaven’s song there's a song of earth’s kings: "Woe, woe, the great city Babylon, the strong city! In one hour your judgment has come" (Revelation 18:9-10). These kings are distressed because they were in league with this atrocious woman, and were minions of antichrist.
b) In one hour
i) The phrase, "in one hour" occurs three times in this chapter (Revelation 18:10,17,19). It emphasizes the short time, in God’s time frame, before God’s judgment comes upon the wicked. .
