The Seventh Vial

1 min read · Chapter 150 of 201

This vial is poured into the air, then a voice out of heaven utters, “It is done,” and many terrible things follow. The great city― Babylon―(see chapter 14:8; 18:10) is divided into three parts. The cities of the nations fall. Great Babylon, too, now comes into remembrance before God, to receive the cup of the fierceness of His wrath. God shakes terribly the earth. Every island flees away, and the mountains are not found. A great hail falls upon men out of heaven; every stone about the weight of a talent; and here again we are told that men blasphemed God because of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great. (verse 17.21.)
As we saw in connection with the opening of the seventh seal, and sounding of the seventh trumpet, the temple of heaven brought before us, and voices, and thundering’s, and an earthquake, so now “there came a great voice out of the temple,.... and there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.” This I believe takes us to the time of the personal coming of the Lord Jesus in the clouds of heaven with great power and glory―the great day of the wrath of the Lamb.
In the Revelation we see John’s feelings moved in various ways. He falls dead in chapter 1; he weeps much in chapter 5; he wonders with great admiration in chapter 17; and forgets himself with joy, and worships an angel in chapter 19 and 22.
