Revelation Story Problems


QUESTIONS

 1) John has a vision of a seven-horned, seven-eyed Lamb. This Lamb breaks the seals of a large scroll; immediately John sees a rider on a white horse with a crown and a bow, a red horse whose rider carried a large sword for war, a black horse whose rider carried a pair of scales, and a rider on a pale green horse-who was death. How many horses does John have?  (Revelation 6: 1 – 8)

2) John hears the number of those who are marked on their foreheads with the seal of God- they are: 12,000 from the tribe of Judah, 12,000 from the tribe of Reuben, 12,000 from the tribe of Gad, 12,000 from the tribe of Asher, 12,000 from the tribe of Naphtali, 12,000 from the tribe of Manasseh, 12,000 from the tribe of Simeon, 12,000 from the tribe of Levi, 12,000 from the tribe of Issachar, 12,000 from the tribe of Zebulun, 12,000 from the tribe of Joseph, and 12,000 from the tribe of Benjamin. How many does John see sealed? (Revelation 7: 3 – 8)

3) John was given a measuring reed and told to measure God’s sanctuary, but to exclude the outer court. Assuming this is Herod’s temple in Jerusalem, what measurements does John record? (Revelation 11: 1 – 2)

4) John sees a beast emerging from the land with two horns like a lamb, but sounding like a dragon. John is shrewd and can calculate the beast’s name, the beast’s human name. If the number of the beast is 666 what is his human name? If the number of the beast is 616 what is his human name?  (Revelation 13: 11 – 18)

ANSWERS

1) Zero. John has a vision.

2) Unknown. He sees a huge number, impossible for anyone to count. (Revelation 7:9)

3) John does not record any measurements.

4) 666 = Nero  616 = Nero
