The Mighty Angel and the Little Scroll

The future events leading up to the return of Jesus Christ will include three series of seven judgments—seven Seal Judgments, seven Trumpet Judgments, and seven Bowl Judgments. These judgments will increase in frequency and intensity as the end approaches. John describes these judgments in sequence, but at times interjects additional information that makes those final days more comprehensible. Through a number of interludes we become more aware of those future events. Revelation 10:1-11 presents one of these interludes, a vision about a mighty angel and a little scroll. Through this interlude we’re reminded that God’s plan for this world will be fulfilled just as He promised. We can trust God because Jesus Christ, the Lamb, is Lord.
