Read 13:11-18. What does the 2nd beast do?
Read 14:1-5. Who's mark is on the heads of the 144,000?
(Read Deuteronomy 23:9-10 & 2 Samuel 11 for insight into how chastity was part of battle preparation.)
Read 14:6-11. Notice the final chances to repent.
Read 14:12-13. How are Christians called to respond to the situation? What does this passage imply is about to happen?

(See Isaiah 9,11,42,53 & 63 for insight into the "winepress." See Hebrews 13:11-14 for insight into the significance of being "outside the city.")
