Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Revelation 1:12 (NKJV) says, "Then I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands." This is the beginning of the author John's vision. But what, according to verse 20 of the same chapter, is the mystery of the lampstands?

Answer: They are the seven churches (which are in Asia that John was to write unto).

The Lord is holding seven stars in His right hand. These stars are the angels of the seven churches.
2. Chapters 2 and 3 of Revelation tell us what John is to write unto the seven churches. Two of the churches are not rebuked by the Lord. Which ones are they?

Answer: Smyrna and Philadelphia

But, each church has hope for "he who overcomes." "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches," as several verses in Revelation 2 and 3 say. (NKJV)
3. In Revelation 4, when John is taken up into Heaven, he sees a great thunderous throne on a sea of glass and there "were four living creatures full of eyes on front and in back." (verse 6, NKJV) Finish verse 7: "The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature was like a calf, the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature was like a ________"

Answer: flying eagle.

These creatures do "not rest night or day, saying, 'Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!'" See verse 8. (NKJV)
4. Chapter 5 of Revelation is all about the scroll that no one is worthy to open. What does John do when he sees that no one is worthy to open the scroll or loose its seals, nor even to look at it?

Answer: He weeps much.

We find that indeed One is able to open the scroll, even to loose its seals, also to look upon it: Jesus Christ Himself. And there is much rejoicing!
5. In Revelation 6, the time has come to open the seals of the scroll. This chapter covers six of them, with the sixth seal continuing on into chapter 7. In chapter 7 there is a pause before more harm comes upon the earth, a pause to place a seal on the 144,000 of God's servants. Where is this seal placed?

Answer: On their foreheads.

Notice how things showing allegiance to either God or Satan are placed on the forehead or the back of the hand. This was true with the children of Israel back in their exodus out of Egypt and is where the mark of the beast gets placed later in Revelation. See also Deut. 6:8
6. Chapter 8 of Revelation introduces the seven trumpet judgements brought about by the opening of the seventh seal. The third trumpet brings about a fiery star to Earth which lands in a third of the rivers and in the springs. "Many men died from the water because it was made bitter." (v.11 NKJV) What is the name of this star?

Answer: Wormwood

The trumpet judgements affect a third of various things. This is only a foreshadowing of similar judgements to come.
7. The fifth trumpet sounds as we enter Chapter 9 of Revelation. Locusts come to torment man for a period of five months. "Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man." (v.5 NKJV) According to verse 6, what will happen to those who "seek death" during this period?

Answer: They will not find it.

"But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues [the trumpet judgements], did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk. And they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries or their sexual immorality or their thefts." - Revelation 9: 20, 21 (NKJV)
8. In Revelation chapter 10, we find a mighty angel with a little book. He speaks through thunderous words that John is told to seal up and not to write down. John receives the book from the angel and does something to it, as instructed to him by a voice out of Heaven. What does he do to the book?

Answer: Eats it.

"Then I took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth. But when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter. And he said to me, 'You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, tongues, and kings.'" - Revelation 10:10, 11 (NKJV)
9. Chapter 11 of Revelation introduces two witnesses who "will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth." (v.4 NKJV) These witnesses are eventually overcome by the beast that comes up out of the bottomless pit and are left where they have died, to be mocked by many. How long are these witnesses dead before God breathes life back into them?

Answer: Three and a half days.

"Now after the three-and-a-half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, 'Come up here.' And they ascended to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them." - Revelation 11: 11, 12. (NKJV)
10. Chapter 12 of Revelation shows John signs in Heaven. During this vision, who or what does John witness leaving Heaven?

Answer: Satan and his followers being cast out of Heaven.

11. In Revelation 13, John sees a great beast coming out of the sea who heals from a wound and speaks great blasphemes against God. This beast is understood to be the anti-Christ. How long is it given him to rule on Earth?

Answer: 42 months (3 1/2 years)

This is the Bible's account of when the anti-Christ starts living up to that name. "If anyone has an ear, let him hear. He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints." Revelation 13:9, 10 (NKJV)
12. Revelation chapter 14 begins with messages to Earth's people from three angels. Then, a great harvesting happens. "Then I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud sat One like the Son of Man, having on His head a golden crown, and in His hand a great ________." (NKJV) Fill in the blank.

After the Lord swings His sickle to reap the earth's fruits, an angel comes on the scene with another sickle to gather the vines of the earth to put into the winepress of God's wrath.
13. Revelation chapter 15 gives us a prelude to the bowl judgements. We have seven angels with seven plagues which will finish God's wrath. We also see those who had victory over the beast standing. What do they do before the first of the bowls gets poured upon the earth?

Answer: Sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb.

"The song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb" is recorded as follows:
"Great and marvelous are Your works,
Lord God Almighty!
Just and true are Your ways,
O King of the saints!
Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name?
For You alone are holy.
For all nations shall come and worship before You,
For Your judgments have been manifested." Revelation 15:3, 4 (NKJV)
14. When the sixth angel pours out his bowl of wrath upon the earth in Revelation chapter 16, he pours it out onto a particular river. What is this river's name?

Answer: Euphrates.

"Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared." Revelation 16:12 (NKJV) This is for the upcoming great battle.
15. In Revelation chapter 17, John sees a harlot sitting on a beast with the name "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" written above her. What is the color of the beast that she sits on, one of the colors that she is also adorned with (along with purple)?

Answer: scarlet

"So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication." - Revelation 17:3, 4 (NKJV)
16. In Revelation chapter 18, the great Babylon has fallen. What does the mighty angel mentioned in this text throw into the water to show the fall of Babylon?

17. Revelation chapter 19 brings us to Armageddon, that final battleground. The Lord on His white horse is on the scene with a sharp sword projecting out of His mouth. Which animals of the earth are told to prepare to feast upon the dead of the earth?

Answer: The birds.

"Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the rest were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh." Revelation 19:20, 21 (NKJV)
18. In Revelation 20, where is Satan bound up for 1000 years?

Answer: The bottomless pit.

Many people get confused on the issue of Hell. The bottomless pit is different from the lake of fire and brimstone. Satan will be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone later in the chapter.
19. Revelation chapter 21 describes the New Jerusalem. What does John tell us the "temple" consists of?

Answer: The Lord God Almighty and the Lamb.

"But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light." Revelation 21:22, 23 (NKJV) The city walls were jasper, and the city itself was of gold.
20. Revelation 22:2a says, "In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore ______ fruits..." What word completes this line?
