I've pointed out that a strong Calvinistic view of God's sovereignty, and various biblical examples, demonstrate that God uses instruments to administer judgement. These instruments include the nations and Satan.

It's a false dichotomy to say that Satan's wrath occurs in some section of the 70th Week, therefore God's wrath must come later. In Revelation and God's Justice I cover familiar territory and focus on the 4th seal. Click HERE.
