The Seven Bowls of God's Wrath

God is closed up in His Temple. The Triune God, alone in His holiness, His righteousness and His wrath. The seven angels are ready to do His bidding. And in this chapter John chronicles the pouring out of each bowl in quick succession, all culminating with the seventh and greatest plague. Yet in this you see no only the holiness and wrath of God but also the sustaining grace of God for those in the midst of this time of wondrous horror. Let the reader and hearer understand.
