Revelation 8-9 What does the news of impending judgement mean to you? It will depend on how prepare you are for it and how confident you will be as a result of it. When the scroll about God’s judgement is unfolded, heaven is silent for half an hour, God’s people pray and the unrepentant continue business as usual. As we see the bottomless pit opened, we will be encouraged to live each day in the light of judgement day..
