A Bowl of Freedom

The Revelation is more about present hope than a future calendar



Revelation 16:1 – Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”



The seven bowls hold the patient wrath of God



Revelation 16:2 – So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.



Exodus 13:9a – And it shall be to you as a sign on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the law of the Lord may be in your mouth.



The forehead represented your mind/thoughts, and the hand represented your behaviors/activities



We reveal our relationship with God through our thoughts and actions



Revelation 16:3 – The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing died that was in the sea.



Exodus 12:3,6 – Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household…and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight.



Armageddon pictures the Exodus



Romans 12:19 – Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”



I’m not qualified to judge, but I am justified to freedom
