The Wrath of God Begins - Revelation 6:9-17

In Revelation 6:9-17, three critical aspects of God's wrath are discussed. First, verses 9-11 illustrate that God's wrath towards unbelievers is just. These verses focus on the souls of those who have been slain for their faith in Jesus Christ during the Great Tribulation. They cry out for justice, and God assures them that justice will be served, emphasizing the divine fairness of His wrath. Second, verses 12-14 outline that God's wrath waits for those who willfully refuse to repent. These verses describe catastrophic natural disasters initiated by the opening of the sixth seal. This impending doom serves as a reflection of the justified wrath of God, especially against those who dishonor Him by killing His people. Lastly, verses 15-17 declare that God's wrath will be equitable, affecting everyone regardless of their social status. It's an appeal to humanity that God doesn't want any to perish; He desires repentance and offers salvation through Jesus Christ. His call for repentance is universal, and there is no salvation outside of Jesus.
