Pastor Chuck Smith The Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ Chapter 15

In lesson Pastor Chuck masterly navigates the complexities of the book of Revelation, using Chapter 15 as a transitional stage between the mention of Armageddon in Chapter 14 and its comprehensive detailing in Chapter 16. Throughout the discourse, Chuck underlines that Revelation's non-linear structure can cause difficulties for readers who are accustomed to a more linear narrative. In the lesson, Pastor Chuck unpacks the imagery of the heavenly scene showcased in Chapter 15, where it is detailed that saved souls, having survived the trials of the great tribulation, are seen under the altar and now stand in God's presence, continually worshipping Him. These individuals are depicted standing on a "sea of glass," singing the songs of Moses and the Lamb, hymns of gratitude and redemption, respectively. The Song of Moses, Chuck explains, refers to the grateful song Moses and the Israelites sang after their miraculous Red Sea crossing, while the Song of the Lamb celebrates Jesus's sacrifice and the redemption of humanity.Pastor Chuck further elucidates the dual nature of God's work, embodying both redemption and righteous judgment. This perspective is illustrated through the heavenly scene and the understanding of the saved souls who acknowledge God's righteous deeds in both creation and judgment. Emphasizing the significance of fearing the Lord, Chuck stresses that God's judgments aren't arbitrary but fair and justified. The lesson concludes with the revelation of seven angels emerging from the opened heavenly temple, symbolizing the final plagues through the seven bowls of God's wrath that they hold. The lesson wraps up with the temple filling with smoke, symbolizing God’s glory and power, and culminates by stating that nobody can enter the temple until the fulfillment of the seven plagues. Through this lesson, Pastor Chuck provides compelling insights into the intriguing aspects of Revelation 15: Holiness, Redemption, Divine judgment, and Deliverance; all of which are promised to those who believe in Jesus Christ.
