Revelation 15 Quiz Questions and Answers

Question 1: What do the seven last plagues fill up?
  • A. The wrath of God
  • B. The cup of death
  • C. The time of men
  • D. The age of wrath
  • E. None of the above 
View Answer

Answer 1: A: In the seven last plagues is filled up the wrath of God. D (the age of wrath) uses similar language but is not what the plagues fill up. 
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:1, “for in them is filled up the wrath of God.”

Question 2: How were the seven angels clothed?
  • A. White fine wool
  • B. Pure white linen
  • C. Scarlet royal cloth
  • D. Fine golden thread
  • E. Dark woven cloth
View Answer

Answer 2: B: The angels were clothed in pure and white linen. C (scarlet) echoes the scarlet beast of chapter seventeen and the harlot’s garments, making it a plausible cross-chapter trap for students who conflate the clothing of different figures in Revelation.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:6, “clothed in pure and white linen.”

Question 3: What song did the victors sing?
  • A. Song of Moses
  • B. Song of Zion
  • C. Song of the Lamb
  • D. Song of David
  • E. A and C
View Answer

Answer 3: E: The victors sang both the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb. A alone or C alone would capture only half the answer. B (Song of Zion) and D (Song of David) are real scriptural songs but neither is named in verse three.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:3, “And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb.”

Question 4: Where did those who had victory over the beast stand?
  • A. Before the crystal throne
  • B. On Mount Zion
  • C. On the sea of glass
  • D. Within the opened temple
  • E. Beside the river of life
View Answer

Answer 4: C: They stood on the sea of glass. D (in the holy temple) is a strong trap because verse five opens the temple shortly after, and the temple is central to this chapter. But the victors stood on the sea of glass, not inside the temple.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:2, “and them that had gotten the victory over the beast…stand on the sea of glass.”

Question 5: What filled the temple with smoke?
  • A. God’s glory and power
  • B. God’s wrath and fire
  • C. God’s breath and might
  • D. God’s word and light
  • E. God’s throne and flame
View Answer

Answer 5: A: The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power. B (wrath and fire) is the strongest trap: wrath is the chapter’s dominant theme, but the smoke is attributed specifically to glory and power, not wrath.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:8, “And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power.”

Question 6: What vessel(s) held the wrath of God given to the angels?
  • A. Seven silver cups
  • B. A and C
  • C. Seven bronze bowls
  • D. Seven golden vials
  • E. Seven stone urns
View Answer

Answer 6: D: One of the four beasts gave the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God. The compound B (A and C) fails because both silver cups and bronze bowls are absent from the text. The material is gold and the vessel is a vial, not a cup or bowl.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:7, “And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God.”

Question 7: What opened in heaven?
  • A. The great altar
  • B. The holy tabernacle
  • C. The eastern gate
  • D. The heavenly court
  • E. The inner sanctuary
View Answer

Answer 7: B: The temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. E (the inner sanctuary) names a real component of the earthly tabernacle but is not the specific thing described as opening in verse five.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:5, “the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.”

Question 8: How does the song describe God’s works?
  • A. Great and marvellous
  • B. Wise and perfect
  • C. Pure and holy
  • D. Strong and mighty
  • E. Good and righteous
View Answer

Answer 8: A: The song declares that God’s works are great and marvellous. The other paired adjectives here are all genuinely biblical descriptions of God but none is the pairing the song uses for his works in verse three.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:3, “Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty.”

Question 9: What did the victors hold in their hands?
  • A. Lyres of gold
  • B. Trumpets of brass
  • C. Horns of the beast 
  • D. Flutes of wood
  • E. Harps of God
View Answer

Answer 9: E: They had the harps of God. A (lyres of gold) substitutes a similar stringed instrument for the correct one. B (trumpets of brass) draws on the trumpet imagery of the preceding chapters but is not what the victors held in chapter fifteen.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:2, “having the harps of God.”

Question 10: What does the song say all nations shall do?
  • A. Bow and tremble
  • B. Fall and confess
  • C. Come and worship
  • D. Fear and serve
  • E. None of the above
View Answer

Answer 10: C: All nations shall come and worship before thee. A (bow and tremble) combines two genuine biblical responses to divine holiness but is not the pairing the verse uses. D (fear and serve) captures part of the passage’s spirit but substitutes serve for worship.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:4, “for all nations shall come and worship before thee.”

Question 11: How does the song describe God’s ways?
  • A. Just and true
  • B. Good and right
  • C. Pure and clear
  • D. High and holy
  • E. None of the above 
View Answer

Answer 11: A: The song declares God’s ways to be just and true. D (high and holy) borrows from other doxological passages in scripture but is not the pairing verse three uses for his ways. Note that his works (verse three) are great and marvellous, while his ways are just and true: two different pairings from the same verse.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:3, “Just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.”

Question 12: Which of the following is named in verse two as something the victors had gotten victory over?
  • A. His power
  • B. His armies
  • C. His angels
  • D. His throne
  • E. None of the above 
View Answer

Answer 12: E: The victors had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name. His image is explicitly named in verse two. Power, armies, angels, and throne do not appear in the list.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:2, “them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name.”

Question 13: Who gave the seven angels their vials?
  • A. One of the holy angels
  • B. One of the four beasts
  • C. One of the four elders
  • D. One of the great saints
  • E. None of the above
View Answer

Answer 13: B: One of the four beasts gave the angels the seven golden vials. C (one of the four elders) substitutes elders for beasts, exploiting the fact that both the four beasts and the twenty-four elders appear in the throne room scenes of Revelation.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:7, “And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials.”

Question 14: What were the seven angels girded with?
  • A. Golden girdles
  • B. Silver chains
  • C. Brazen belts
  • D. White sashes
  • E. Linen bands
View Answer

Answer 14: A: Their breasts were girded with golden girdles. E (linen bands) is drawn from the same verse, which describes the angels as clothed in linen. A student who merges the clothing with the girding will select E rather than A.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:6, “having their breasts girded with golden girdles.”

Question 15: What does the song declare God alone to be?
  • A. Just
  • B. Worthy
  • C. Righteous
  • D. Merciful
  • E. Holy
View Answer

Answer 15: E: The song declares that God alone is holy. A (just) is the sharpest trap: just appears in the same verse, but it describes his ways, not a quality God is declared to possess uniquely. The word holy belongs to the specific claim about what he alone is.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:4, “for thou only art holy.”

Question 16: What prevented men from entering the temple?
  • A. Until God spoke forth
  • B. Until angels had gone
  • C. Until the smoke cleared
  • D. Until all plagues ended
  • E. Until all things ended
View Answer

Answer 16: D: No man was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled. C (until the smoke cleared) is the closest trap: the smoke itself is what made entry impossible, but the verse defines the endpoint as the completion of the plagues, not the clearing of the smoke.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:8, “and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.”

Question 17: What was the sea of glass mingled with?
  • A. Smoke
  • B. Fire
  • C. Blood
  • D. Water
  • E. Hail
View Answer

Answer 17: B: The sea of glass was mingled with fire. In chapter four the sea of glass appears without fire; here in chapter fifteen it is mingled with fire, marking the shift from the throne room at rest to the threshold of final judgment.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:2, “And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire.”

Question 18: What does the song declare about God’s judgments?
  • A. Revealed before the nations
  • B. Made manifest
  • C. Reserved for the last day
  • D. Hidden in heaven
  • E. Feared by the kings of the earth
View Answer

Answer 18: C: The song declares that God’s judgments are made manifest. A (long delayed) directly contradicts the verse. B (soon completed) reads the chapter’s urgency back into the song but is not what verse four says about his judgments.
KJV Reference: Revelation 15:4, “for thy judgments are made manifest.”

Revelation 15 is a chapter of preparation. The victors stand on the sea of glass and sing, not after the war is over but while the bowls are still being readied. The song they choose is the song of Moses: the same song sung at the sea after Pharaoh’s army was swallowed. There is something deliberate about that echo. Those who will not be moved sing what the delivered have always sung.
