Victory in Jesus • LESSON 19 (September 2) Revelation 18: “Fallen is Babylon the
Great!” 1. By its use of “After this…”
Revelation 18:1 assumes we remember the context of what is happening in this
revelation. Take a moment to remind yourself: what is going on? 2. “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great!”
(18:2). Having read Revelation 18:2-3 (and 17:1-6), how would you summarize
what John has just seen and heard? 3.
Revelation 18:4-8 contains a very important message for the saints of God.
What is that message? Does it still apply, even in 2015? 4. Revelation 18:9-20 pictures a great many
people—kings, merchants, shipmasters, and traders— weeping and wailing over
the fall of Babylon. Why? Are there any practical lessons we can learn from
this section of the revelation? 5. If
you were going to encapsulate the point of Revelation 18:21-24 in just a few
words or phrases, how would you do it?
6. In your own words, what is being communicated in Revelation 18?
What is the overall message? How does that overall message apply to us today? |
