In these chapters we see the fall of the false religion and the world’s markets.

Having introduced the Antichrist again in the beginning of chapter 13 the text introduces the False Prophet in the remainder of the chapter. Chapter 14 gives us 7 visions that are an encouragement to all believers at that time in the tribulation and for us now.

These chapters are a flashback to the events happening in Revelation 9-11 but
are given in more detail. It presents the account of the war in heaven
between the dragon and Michael and its consequences.

As John continued to write ‘what is going to take place in the future’ he views from heaven the beginning of God’s judgment upon the earth as Christ opens the seals.

John was told to write ‘what is going to take place in the future.’ Thus in a vision John was taken into the throne room of God and became a spectator of the worship of God the creator and Jesus the Lamb.
