Revelation 9:1-12, part 1 (Revelation 9:1-12)

Phillip Kayser, PhD, August 14, 2016
Part of the Revelation series, preached at a Sermon service

This sermon looks at the symbolism of the demons that come out of the bottomless pit. The totems or emblems of Titus' Fifteenth Legion and their supporting Legions and auxiliaries were representations of their "gods," what we would call demons. This sermon looks at the timing, the historical underpinnings of the symbols, and how they would have been instantly recognized by the first century audience. Part 2 will dig much deeper into the theology of demonology.
