Revelation 9-10

It only took me 5 minutes to read this passage. I find the statement on 9:20-21 to be a sad but true commentary on the mindset of mankind. They know of God and have heard of his mercies, but want to serve gods of their own making and on their own terms then serve the true and living God. I know my own tendencies toward the same attitudes. Yet, God has indeed delivery his people from that trap, and has offered to deliver all people.
