Explore God’s justice and mercy through the seals, trumpets, and bowls of judgment in Revelation, inviting repentance and hope.
Welcome to this 7-day Bible Study Plan on God’s Judgment and Mercy in the Book of Revelation. The final book of the Bible is often viewed with apprehension, but it offers a powerful message about God’s perfect justice, unfailing mercy, and an urgent call to repentance. As we journey through the seals, trumpets, and bowls—three distinct cycles of divine action—we will uncover how God executes judgment on sin, yet remains patient and merciful toward humanity.
The book of Revelation reveals a cosmic battle between good and evil, with God sovereignly holding all history in His hands. This study is designed to help you grasp the deep spiritual truths behind those vivid and sometimes frightening images, understanding them not only as warnings but as expressions of God’s holiness and love.
Why focus on both judgment and mercy? Because the two are inseparable in God's character. Judgment is a response to sin and rebellion, ensuring justice is served. Mercy, however, invites sinners to repent, change, and receive salvation through Jesus Christ. As Revelation unfolds, you will see God’s justice acting decisively, yet His mercy persistently shining through, giving all a chance to turn back to Him.
Over the next seven days, we will study key passages that reveal this tension and harmony. Reflect on how each event challenges you personally and encourages a deeper walk with God. Whether new to Revelation or looking to deepen your understanding, this plan aims to inspire and convict, pointing you toward hope in Christ alone.
As you read, pray for the Holy Spirit to guide you, illuminating the scriptures and moving your heart toward repentance and faith.
