And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 9 is found in chapter 16 of Revelation. The fourth bowl affects the sun, which is given power to scorch people with fire. Despite suffering great heat, they blaspheme the name of God and do not repent to give him glory. The text again shows that judgment does not necessarily produce conversion. Rebellion intensifies precisely in the face of affliction, revealing a hardness of heart that becomes one of the recurring features of judged humanity.
