Rev 14:6-7 | MHM | STEP | The Three Angels This section describes three angels who bring important messages from God. Their messages warn about the fall of Babylon and the events that happen before and after it. The first angel preaches the everlasting gospel to all people. The second angel announces the fall of Babylon, often seen as a symbol of Rome, known for its pride and idolatry. The third angel warns that anyone who continues to follow the beast and practice idolatry after these warnings will face God's wrath. These messages show God's justice, the danger of idolatry, and the reward for the faithful saints. v. 6 : The first angel comes to preach the everlasting gospel to every nation, tribe, language, and people. This gospel is eternal and will never fade away. It is so important that even an angel is given this task. The gospel is the only way people learn to fear God and give Him glory, because natural religion is not enough. When idolatry enters the church, it is through the gospel and the Holy Spirit’s power that people turn from idols to serve the living God (Revelation 14:6 ).

The Three Angels

This section describes three angels who bring important messages from God. Their messages warn about the fall of Babylon and the events that happen before and after it. The first angel preaches the everlasting gospel to all people. The second angel announces the fall of Babylon, often seen as a symbol of Rome, known for its pride and idolatry. The third angel warns that anyone who continues to follow the beast and practice idolatry after these warnings will face God's wrath. These messages show God's justice, the danger of idolatry, and the reward for the faithful saints.

v. 6: The first angel comes to preach the everlasting gospel to every nation, tribe, language, and people. This gospel is eternal and will never fade away. It is so important that even an angel is given this task. The gospel is the only way people learn to fear God and give Him glory, because natural religion is not enough. When idolatry enters the church, it is through the gospel and the Holy Spirit’s power that people turn from idols to serve the living God(Revelation 14:6 ^a).

v. 7: The angel calls out, “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the springs of water”(Revelation 14:7 ^b). This reminds everyone that only the Creator deserves worship. To worship anyone else is idolatry.
