"In them the wrath of God is complete"

Text: Revelation 15:1

THE WRATH OF GOD

The wrath of God was forewarned. His wrath would be poured out against the evildoers who worshipped the Beast of the Sea.

“Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous:
seven angels having the seven last plagues,
for in them the wrath of God is complete.
And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire,
and those who have the victory over the beast,
over his image and over his mark
and over the number of his name,
standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.”
