Send us Fan Mail John sees the 144,000 standing with Jesus on the earth.  The final message of salvation is given to the earth by angels and then Jesus gathers the nations for the judgement of the sheep and goats in Matt 25.  

Send us Fan Mail As a child of God we are ministers of the Gospel.  That means we have a ministry and fulfilling that ministry is crucial to our eternal rewards.  Being faithful to that which God has given us and serving Jesus throughout our lives, until the end, in obedience to the Word and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us through this life will result in fulfilling our ministry in this life....

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 13 gives us a spapshot summary of the Antichrist and False Prophet's role in the Great Tribulation.  

Send us Fan Mail Victory in Christ comes when we allow Him to lead us through this life.  What is hard about this is the things we are called to do and the manner in which to do them are often not something we want to do.  So we often rationalize ways to avoid God's will.  And that leads to spiritual desolation.  Whereas trusting in Him no matter what brings about God's will which is oft...

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 12 opens with a look at the history of Israel when Jesus was born and gives a heavenly perspective on the battle between Satan and Israel up into the tribulation period. 

Send us Fan Mail Reading through the Scriptures we see references to the righteous, the foolish and the wicked.  For each person there is a trajectory in life that lands in eternity.  Some think it's not subject to change as they were destined for the life they live.  But God can change things and bring a person out of darkness into the light if they are willing to receive Him.  

Send us Fan Mail In chapter 11 we are introduced to two witnesses who will become known worldwide for preaching Jesus.  The Beast, or Antichrist, will ultimately kill them although God has realistically completed their ministry so it's time to bring them home.  Following this revelation, John sees the 7th Trumpet and the effects of it.  This brings the tribulation period to a close as Jesus i...

Send us Fan Mail We see the title "sluggard" in the Scriptures referring to those who are not willing to work or really contribute at all.  And studying this we can see that God does not condone sluggishness rather expects people, especially those who claim Him as their God, to be diligent in their character and take care of business.  Poverty is one consequence of being "sluggish&q...

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 9 introduces the reader to a horde of demonic creatures resembling locusts in the natural world.  These creatures torment those who are not sealed by God for 5 months giving those who willing an opportunity to turn to Jesus and repent. 

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 20 is a short chapter where John is given a scroll to consume and instructed to continue to prophesy (speak forth the word of God).  We also see what is referred to a the 7 thunders.  We are not told what they are but we are told that the mystery of God would be revealed when the 7th Trumpet sounds. 

Send us Fan Mail Psalm 2 is short and deals with man's continued rebellion and God's authority over this world.  It also refers to the future when Jesus is set up as King in Jerusalem.  It's a psalm of warning to the wicked and hope for the faithful.  

Send us Fan Mail Revelation chapter 7:9 begins a new section of the overall vision of the book beginning with the phrase "after this."  This section continues into chapter 15:4.   In this episode we will see a multitude standing before the throne of God waiving palm branches who are identified as those who have come out of the great tribulation.  This appears to me to be John witnessing...

Send us Fan Mail In chapter 8 we see the 7th seal loosed which appears to me to signify the end of the tribulation period as does the 7th Trumpet and the 7th Bowl judgement.  So the seals, trumpets and bowls all terminate at the end of the 7 years in my mind.   The 7th and final seal looses and reveals the writing on the scroll but we are not told what that writing is.  However, what transpires af...

Send us Fan Mail In Chapter 6 Jesus opens 6 of 7 seals from a scroll that kick off a world wide war.  The 6th seal appears consistent with the 7 and final bowl judgment of Revelation chapter 16.  The seals and corresponding events represent the authority of Jesus to initiate the time in the Scriptures called by many names most notably the Great Tribulation.    

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 7 verses 1-8 are a small section of the Book of Revelation separated by the phrase "after this."  Again this to me seems to indicate that John is seeing different parts of the last 7 years of Daniel Ch.9's prophecy wrapping up the age of the rule of man before Messiah or Christ returns and sets up the long awaited kingdom.  In this section, we see God having...

Send us Fan Mail In the Scriptures there are many references to the knowledge of God.  Reviewing these it becomes clear this is something we not only need to pursue but also possess if we want to know Jesus.  

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 5 is a continuation of Chapter 4 where John is seeing the Throne Room of God preparing for the Great Tribulation Period which will kick off in Chapter 6. 

Send us Fan Mail The ancient city of Philippi was a proud Roman colony in the days of the Apostle Paul.  He visits the city and he and Silas, his traveling companion, experience a crazy few days but those days allow a church to be born that Paul would later write a letter to - Philippians.  

Send us Fan Mail Chapter 4 begins with the words "after this" and begins a new component of this vision from God.  John will see the events of the great tribulation all the way to the end where God establishes the New Heavens and the New Earth.  

Send us Fan Mail In our modern day world, with information available in real time, we can become overwhelmed with the negativity that seems to never end.  However, for the child of God there is a hope that is so much greater than than the drama of this life, that it is worth giving thanks to our King.  Staying focused on Jesus and being content with our lives, is key in living a life of thanksgivi...

Send us Fan Mail Living our lives in obedience to Jesus should be evident.  Walking in the light is simply living day by day trusting Jesus and doing what we know He wants us to do.  That involves being in tune with the Holy Spirit and listening carefully for instruction for the day.  

Send us Fan Mail A view among some is that the 7 churches in chapters 2 and 3 represent 7 successive eras of church history in the order the 7 churches are listed in these two chapters.  I think this is interesting and see the connection while others don't.  This is my summary of this view.  

Send us Fan Mail Most don't realize that our city of Philadelphia comes from this ancient city in Turkey.  This church, like Smyrna, receives no rebuke rather only encouragement.  They too were in the midst of hate and apparently did according to what Jesus would have them do as His followers.   

Send us Fan Mail Loadicea was a very wealthy and proud city.  And the Christians in that city appear to be the same.  This was the church where we find the word "lukewarm" describing their true character.  This was unacceptable to Jesus and He warns them that He would "spit them out of His mouth" if they continued down this road.  

Send us Fan Mail In a age where people are seemingly free to do what the Scriptures has declared evil, we have the Holy Spirit to provide is the wisdom and more to be a light in this world and show those in darkness the goodness, grace and mercy of God.  Our life as a believer must be lived "walking in the Spirit" so we can discern and accomplish the will of God.
