Revelation 17-18
Read chapters 15-18 all at once. (Realize that chapters 17-18 describe the details of the fall of Babylon already announced in Revelation 14:8, and these events are still in the future. Go back through chapters 17 and 18 and mark all references to woman, harlot, Babylon. Make a list of the characteristics of this future "Babylon" as found in chapters 17-18.

Revelation 14
Read chapters 13-14 together. Then, go back and mark any key words in chapter 14 - key words we have seen from past chapters as well as angel and all the synonyms for Babylon, such as great harlot, woman, great city, mother of harlot(s).
Write down the facts you find in the chapter about Babylon. Add any new facts you find in chapter 14 about the First Beast.
Ask the 5 W/H questions about the 144,000 which you find in Rev. 14:1-5. What do you learn about them? How are they described? Where are they? What are they doing? Where did they come from? Then, re-read Revelation 7:1-8. Are these in Revelation 14 the same as in Rev. 7? Write down the facts you learn about the 144,000.

Revelation 12
First read Daniel 12. Then,...when you return to Revelation 12, realize that 12:1-6 summarizes the events which 12:7-17 details.
Read Revelation 11 and 12 together at once. Please note that the "rest (remnant) of her offspring" in Revelation 12:17 must refer to Jews who are converted, Israelites who come to faith in Jesus Christ. (This will become clearer as we move through the upcoming chapters.) Also, see Revelation 7:4.
In Revelation 12, mark all the phrases "was thrown down" and "has been thrown down" and notice the references to time in connection with Satan's being thrown down.
In Revelation 12:12, what is the cause of Satan being full of wrath?
