BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 24, Day 2: Revelation 19:1-5

by atozmom, posted in BSF Revelation: The Hope 2024/2025

Summary of Revelation 19:1-5

Those in heaven (including the 24 elders and 4 living creatures) shouted after Babylon’s fall, praising God for His goodness, judgments, and revenge for His servants.

3) Salvation, glory, and power belong to God. Salvation is Jesus’ sacrifice for us so that we can have eternal life with God. Glory is God’s magnificence and His goodness, giving Him praise. Power is how God is in control of everything and how He can do whatever He wants.

4) Omniscence, omnipotent, just judgments, and how He keeps His promises. I would say all are important in some way to me. All offer me hope, encouragement, and courage to keep going, doing His will in this world.

5a) Babylon’s fall and final judgment

b) Worship in heaven is definitely inspiring. I’m not by nature very worshipful in terms of singing (maybe because I can’t sing), so seeing heaven so full of worship and singing helps me to express myself too.

Conclusions BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 24, Day 2: Revelation 19:1-5

Seems like those in heaven have been waiting a long time for God’s judgment. This gives us encouragement and hope as it can seem like we wait a long time for things to happen in our lives, too. Great lesson on keeping the faith and then celebrating when it happens!

End Notes BSF Study Questions Revelation: The Hope Lesson 24, Day 2: Revelation 19:1-5

We first saw the great multitude in Revelation 7:9-14. Their prayer is answered here (Revelation 6:10) as Babylon falls.

Fun Fact: We’ll see the word “Hallelujah” 4 times in Revelation 19  It appears nowhere else in the New Testament. Hallelujah means “praise the Lord.”

God is being praised here for His righteous judgment.

The voice is most likely an angel’s voice.

BSF Study Questions John’s Gospel: The Truth Lesson 24, Day 2: John 18:28-32

by atozmom, posted in BSF John's Gospel: The Truth 2023/2024

Summary of John 18:28-32

Then the Jewish leaders took Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman governor. Pilate came out  and asked what charges Jesus was facing. Pilate did not want to deal with this, but the Jewish leaders told them they could not execute Jesus.

3a)  To avoid ceremonial uncleanness and maintain ritual purity since it’s Passover.

b) Not really. They were seeking to kill someone illegally and without justification, and that breaks the 10 Commandments. In Biblical times, there were many ways to be unclean, including by skin diseases, discharges of bodily fluids, touching something dead ( Num 5:2 ), or eating unclean foods (Lev 11 ; Deut 14). In this case, the Jewish leaders were unclean because of their evil hearts.

4a) He was not happy. It was early in the morning. He probably was asleep and did not want to be bothered with Jewish things. And, he had to come out, so he had to get dressed. He did not want to deal with this.

b) Jesus would have to die on the cross as Moses predicted to save the world.

5) The lengths that the religious leaders are going to to execute Jesus. They know Pilate will be angry, but they do it anyways.

6a) We do this all the time. Try to make up for our sins by doing good. We do this out of guilt and hopes of feeling better for our sins. We also do this to ignore our sins, and we feel better by doing good.

b) Jesus. Confession of our sins. Accepting Jesus as our Savior.

We see the true twistedness and evil of the Jewish leaders here.

John leaves out the details of Jesus’ trials (Assembly of the council recorded in Matthew 26:57-68 and the daylight meeting of the Sanhedrin (Luke 22:66), instead focusing on Jesus and Pilate.

The Jewish leaders expected Pilate to condemn Jesus immediately and order his execution. Instead, Pilate demanded the charges against Jesus. Since they answered with no specifics, he told them to deal with Jesus.

By Roman law, the Jews did not have the authority to kill anyone.

The Jews would probably have stoned Jesus to death, which would not have fulfilled prophecy.

Fun Fact: Jesus faced 6 trials before he was crucified. Can you imagine this modern day?
