  1. There is a clear delineation between those who belong to the beast (Ch 13) and those who belong to the Lamb (Ch 14). The delineation is highlighted in contrasting – distinguishing characteristics. The new song of the redeemed is learned and lived out. How is this concept presented in this passage? How does it help us understand the aim of discipleship? How do we learn and rehearse this song here and now?

How does, or how should, the reality of God’s wrath and an eternal hell influence the song of our lives? How does, or how should, the reality of God’s wrath and an eternal hell influence the way we pray and share with our lost family & friends?
