Temple » Figurative » Sending forth the forces of righteousness against the powers of evil
After that I noticed the temple of the sanctuary of the tent of witness was opened in heaven. The seven angels with the seven plagues came out of the temple. They were clothed in pure white linen, with their chests girded with golden girdles. One of the four beasts gave the seven angels bowls full of the anger of God who lives forever and ever. read more.
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory and power of God. No man was able to enter into the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.

I heard a loud voice from the temple say to the seven angels: Go your way, and pour out the bowls of the anger of God on the earth. The first poured out his bowl on the earth. A painful and grievous sore appeared on the men who had the mark of the beast, and upon those who worshiped his image. Then the second angel poured out his bowl on the sea. It became like the blood of a dead man, and every living being died in the sea. read more.
Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and fountains of waters and they became blood. I heard the angel of the waters say: You are righteous, Jehovah, who are, and was, the Holy One, because you have judged these things. (Exodus 3:14) They have shed the blood of the holy ones and prophets. You give them blood to drink for they deserve it. I heard another say: Even so, Jehovah God the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments. (Deuteronomy 32:4) (Psalm 145:17) (Exodus 6:3) The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun. Authority was given to him to scorch men with fire. Men were scorched with great heat. They blasphemed the name of God, who has power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory. Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast; and his kingdom became full of darkness. And they gnawed their tongues because of the pain. They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains, but they did not repent. The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates. Its water was dried up so that the way might be prepared for the kings from the east. I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. They are demonic spirits, working signs, which go to the kings of the earth, of the whole world. They gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his outer garment, that he does not walk naked and they see his shame. He gathered them together to a place called in the Hebrew tongue Har-Magedon. Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the temple of heaven. It said: It is done!

I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues. God uses them to finish expressing his anger. I saw what looked like a sea of glass mingled with fire. Those who were victorious over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having harps (written Word) of God. They sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying: Great and marvelous are your works, Jehovah God, the Almighty; just and true are your ways, you King of the ages (Eternal King) (King of the nations) (King of the holy ones).

There was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great. The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. God remembered Babylon the Great. He gave her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his anger (wrath). Every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. There fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent (45 to 100 pounds). Men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for the plague was exceeding great.
