ous war between the Lord who cares for His children and Satan who doesn't cease opposing God in His church. So as not to be disturbed by what is mentioned in the seals, the Lamb announces that He, Himself, takes care of the Church during her struggle (7:1-8), as well as during her ease and eternal glory (7:9-17). 4. The angels come out to sound "the seven trumpets" [8- 11], announcing God's warning to humans not to accept Satan's deceit throughout the ages, especially at the time of the Antichrist. The reason for these warnings is the appearance of the dragon [12], the beast from the sea [13], and the beast from the earth [13], and their resistance to the church: the woman clothed with the Sun. It is the war of the defiled trinity: Satan, the Antichrist and the false prophet against the Holy Trinity. It ends with bliss in heaven and the judgment of evil [14]. 5. The Church sees "the seven bowls" [15,16], or the seven plagues as a punishment that befalls the evil ones. This is preceded by two preliminary visions: the glorified Church in heaven (15:1-4), and the origin of these bowls (15:5-8) so that the Church is reassured that everything that happens is according to a divine plan for her glory and edification. 6. These three series are concluded by the fall of the great Babylon and the victory of heaven [17-19]. 7. The book is concluded by revealing the glory of the Church during her struggle [20], as well as during her enjoyment in the new city: "the heavenly Jerusalem" [21,22]. Then we see what God has prepared for us. Inexpressible matters! At that time we say with amazing eagerness: "Yes. Even so, come, Lord Jesus" He is coming quickly! 38
