Revelation 19 marks a dramatic shift as the destruction of Babylon gives way to praise in anticipation of Christ’s return. In this episode, J. Mark Horst explores the four Alleluias in Revelation 19:1–6. These alleluias highlight God’s salvation, power, and glory. This passage reminds us that God alone is worthy of our praise, and we can anticipate the fullness of the Christ’s kingdom to come.
In this episode, J. Mark explores Mark 12:38–44, where Jesus contrasts the self-centered worship of the scribes with the worship of a poor widow who gave everything she had. As we examine this passage, we see how pride and recognition reveal a heart focused on worshipping self rather than worshipping God. Through the widow’s example, we’re reminded that true worship is not measured by how much we give, but by the heart and motives behind what we give to God.
What does our grief reveal about what we truly value? In Revelation 18:9-19, J. Mark Horst examines the mourning that follows the fall of Babylon and the destruction of its wealth, power, and luxury. Kings, merchants, and workers all mourn because they have lost the riches and pleasures they built their lives around. As we consider their response, we’re challenged to examine our own priorities and ask whether we are invested in the wealth and pleasures of this world but or in the true riches found in Christ.
As we continue in our study of Revelation, we come to Revelation 15, which offers a glimpse behind the curtain of the preparations before the bowl judgments occur. J. Mark studies this passage, examining the scenes of the seven angels preparing God’s final judgments, saints worshipping the Lamb through meaningful song, and the glory of God filling His temple. Through these dramatic scenes, we discover God’s solemn warnings to repent and hear a call to worship the King before the day of His judgment arrives.
