The first and second angels' messages are united and made complete in the third. John says: "And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb."

Den første og anden engels budskab forenes og fuldkommes i det tredje. "Og en tredje engel fulgte efter dem og sagde med høj røst: "Hvis nogen tilbeder dyret og dets billede og sætter dets mærke på sin pande eller hånd, skal han også drikke Guds harmes vin, skænket ufortyndet i hans vredes bæger og han skal pines i ild og svovl for øjnene af de hellige engle og Lammet." Åb 14,9-10.
