scorpion in Revelation 9
SKOR-pee-un
This creature shows up in Revelation 9:3: “Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real creature in a real place.
Revelation 9:3
“Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.”
What kids can learn
When you hear scorpion in Revelation, remember the sentence around it. God put this creature in the story on purpose.
