The fifth section runs includes chapters 15 to 16. This scan pictures seven angels having the seven last plagues, or the vials of wrath.
People sometimes ask where we get the idea that God’s patience with someone may be exhausted? How do we arrive at the fact that it is possible for a person to so sin against grace and against God, and so harden his heart, that even before death grace will be closed, and he will have forfeited all opportunity, and there will be no more mercy for him? Well, we get it from six key passages of Scripture, and this is one of them. This contrast between the trumpets of warning and the bowls of wrath. These are punishments that are poured out through[out] the history of the world on people like Pharaoh, who hardened his heart and then God hardened his heart, and there was no more opportunity for repentance. The first judgements are token judgements, reformative in design; these from chapter 15 are final in the sense there is no more patience, no more grace from God. So will look at them, just briefly in time that remains.
