Ep 46 - The Sea of Glass

Voyage | Book of Revelation & Genesis | Shalom World

Chapter 15 of the Book of Revelation shows us a vision of glory for the saints and reveals to us the final chastisement that will end the tribulations. Irish Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan explains the fitting climax to the seals and the trumpets which leads to the ”real” day of the Lord.  Jesus walked across the sea of glass as the Sacrificial Lamb and here we see that he is not alone; those who fought the beast and won are with Him going to the sea of glass - this is the picture St. John gives us of the glorified church. The saints have Jesus’ insignia, they are like Him and they have been through their fiery trials; they have allowed the Lord to purify them. The martyrs are singing the song of Moses and the Lamb because they belong to both covenants. The final chastisement will be given exactly according to this hymn. God is perfect purity, just and almighty; He wipes out all that is impure, unholy, and unfit for His presence.  Bible References: * Rev. 15:1-3 - 7 Plagues * Rev. 7:3 - Sealing of the Saints * Rev. 4 and 5 - Sea of Glass * Matt 16 - Pick up your Cross… * Rev. 15:2 - Sea of glass is suffused with fire * Duet. 4:24 and Heb. 12:29 - God is consuming fire * Rev. 15:4 - Song of Moses and the Lamb * Rev. 5:9-10 - First song of the redeemed * Exo. 15 - Moses’ song by the triumphant Israelites * Ps. 92:5-6 - “How great are your works, O Lord…” * Ps. 145:17 - God only acts out of love * 1 John 4:7 - God is love * Is. 55:8-10 - God’s ways are as different to ours as the heavens are to the earth * Ps. 86:9-10 - “...All will glorify Your name…” * Jer. 10:67 - “Who would not revere…” * Ps. 99:3 - “Great and Awesome is Your Name” * Ps. 111:9 - “Holy and Awesome is Your Name” * Rev. 13.5 - Who can compare with the beast? * Ps. 98:2 - “He has revealed His righteousness…” Scripture Scholar Frances Hogan takes you to the world of the Apocalypse of John shown to us in the Book of Revelation written from the Greek island of Patmos.
