The Woes of Demon-Commissioned Judgment (Revelation 9:1-21)

Revelation 9 contains some of the Bible's most terrifying imagery, but its message is one of hope. As the fifth and sixth trumpets sound, we see God's sovereign control over judgment, His protection of those who belong to Him, and His mercy in calling sinners to repentance. Even in the darkest visions, Christ remains the only Savior and the One who holds the keys to death and the abyss.
