The God Who is There: The God Who is Very Angry, by Don Carson, on Revelation 14

Don__CarsonThen I saw another angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to proclaim to those who dwell on earth, to every nation and tribe and language and people.  And he said with a loud voice, "Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come, andworship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the springs of water."
