Saved From What? Warnings of Doom, Promises of Rest

What does it mean to be saved? Saved from what? These verses explain this in vivid terms. Before us is the drama of the Gospel being proclaimed throughout the earth (v6-7), the fall of Babylon (v8), the doom of everlasting fire and brimstone (v9-12), and finally the relief of those who love God and keep His commandments (v13). All of this is communicated by three angels and a voice from heaven.

The first angel, preaching the everlasting gospel to the whole world, v6-7

The second angel, proclamation of the fall of Babylon, v8

The third angel, pronouncement of the wrath of fire and brimstone, v9-12

The voice from heaven – promises of rest for the blessed ones who die in the Lord, v13
