Portions: Revelation 10 - 14

Then I saw another mighty angel
coming down from heaven.
He was robed in a cloud,
with a rainbow above his head;
his face was like the sun,
and his legs were like fiery pillars.
He was holding a little scroll,
which lay open in his hand.
He planted his right foot on the sea
and his left foot on the land,
and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion.
When he shouted,
the voices of the seven thunders spoke.
(Revelation 10:1-3)

Then God's temple in heaven was opened,
and within His temple was seen the ark of His covenant.
And there came flashes of lightning,
rumblings, peals of thunder,
an earthquake and a great hailstorm.
(Revelation 11:19)

Then the dragon was enraged at the woman
and went off to make war
against the rest of her offspring -
those who obey God's commandments
and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
(Revelation 12:17)

And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.
And I saw a beast coming out of the sea.
He had ten horns and seven heads,
with ten crowns on his horns,
and on each head a blasphemous name.
Men worshiped the dragon
because he had given authority to the beast,
and they also worshiped the beast and asked,
"Who is like the beast?
Who can make war against him?"
(Revelation 13:1,4)

I looked, and there before me was a white cloud,
and seated on the cloud was one "like the Son of Man"
with a crown of gold on his head
and a sharp sickle in his hand.
(Revelation 14:14)
