2. What does it mean that the harlot represents Babylon? What did the city of Babylon produce and represent in the ancient world?
3. Read Revelation 18.4-5. Why does God command His people to leave Babylon? What dangers did idols present to God’s people? (See 1 John 5.20-21)
4. Read Revelation 18.9-20. Why do the different groups of people in this passage mourn the destruction of Babylon? What does the inevitable fall of Babylon indicate to God’s people today? (See James 4.13-16)

1. What idols tend to emerge in our current lives? What threatens to steal our imagination, money, purpose, and/or emotion away from the Lord?
2. The Christian is marked not simply by what we flee, but by what we pursue. What are practical steps we can take this week to follow Paul’s command in Romans 12.1-2 to present our entire lives as living sacrifices to God?
3. Prayerfully determine the main biblical truth or principle that God revealed to you during your study. A few questions to ask are: Is there a promise for me to claim? Is there a truth for me to believe? Is there a command for me to obey?
4. Memorize: Romans 12:2 "Do not be conformed to this present world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve what is the will of God — what is good and well-pleasing and perfect"
この読書プランについて
The Revelation of Jesus Christ is a book about what will happen in the future; but perhaps more importantly, it’s a book about who controls the future. More than sixty years after Jesus rose from the dead, He appears once again to His disciple John to tell him about the things to come. John sees Jesus in a whole new way: He is now risen, glorified, and clearly in charge of the universe. Jesus is Lord of everyone, everywhere, forever. The question for you and me is whether we will trust Him with our lives, believing that He holds both the present and the future in His all-powerful and loving hands.
