Answer
Included below is a Bible study for your consideration regarding the Seven Last Plagues.


Re.15:1-8, Re.16:1 -

Saints who have gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name (Re.15:2 below) sing for joy that God is just and true (Re.15:3 below), and that His judgments are made manifest  (Re.15:4 below), that the vials of the wrath of God are about to be poured out upon the earth (Re.16:1 below).

Heaven's saints, throughout all ages (Jn.5:24 below), are not to enter into the heavenly temple, until ALL seven of the plagues of the seven angels are poured out (Re.15:8 below).


Re.15:1      And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels HAVING THE SEVEN LAST PLAGUES; for in them is filled up the wrath of God (Re.15:7 below).

Re.15:2      And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and THEM THAT HAD GOTTEN (past tense) THE VICTORY over the beast (Re.13:1-2), and over his image (Re.13:14), and over his mark (Re.13:16), and over the number of his name (Re.13:17-18),  stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.

Re.15:3      And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou  King of saints (Re.8:3-4, 1 Cor.1:2).

Re.15:4      Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? For thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest (Re.16:1 below).

Re.15:5      And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle (Re.13:6) of the testimony in heaven was opened:

Re.15:6      And the seven angels came out of the temple, HAVING the seven plagues (Re.15:1 above), clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

Re.15:7      And one of the four beasts GAVE unto the seven angels seven golden vials FULL OF THE WRATH OF GOD (Re.15:1 above, Re.16:1 below), who liveth for ever and ever (Dan.12:7).

Re.15:8      And the temple (Re.15:5 above) was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power;  and no man was able to enter into the temple, TILL THE SEVEN PLAGUES OF THE SEVEN ANGELS WERE FULFILLED. (Completed)


Re.16:1      And I heard a great voice out of the temple (Re.15:5 above) saying to the seven (plague) angels, Go your ways, and POUR OUT the vials of the wrath of God (Re.15:7 above, Re.16:9) upon the earth.


Jn. 5:24     Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed FROM death UNTO life.
