What Goes Up, Must Come Down (Revelation 8:1-5)

Most of us believe God will judge the world someday. We just don't spend much time thinking about it. In Revelation 8:1–5, the Lamb opens the seventh seal—and heaven falls silent. The songs stop. The worship pauses. Every voice is stilled before the justice of God. In this remarkable passage, God silences heaven, receives the prayers of His people, and executes His judgments on the earth.
