Description

INTRODUCTION TO THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST In this podcast, we are going to be doing an in depth, chapter by chapter and verse by verse study of the amazing Book of Revelation. The sessions will last approximately 1 hour. So, let's get started. While you’re turning to Revelation 1:1, let me just say that no book in Scripture reveals the glory of God in Christ in any more splendor than does this book, and yet no book has been more misunderstood, misinterpreted and neglected than the Book of Revelation. In chapter 22 of Revelation, in verse 10, it says, “Seal not the words of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.” If there’s one thing, I believe, God wants in regard to this book, it is that we know what it teaches and we do what it says: when He says..."seal it not". This book is much like the Gospels-Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Only, in this great distinction, the gospels unveil Christ in His first coming in humiliation. Revelation unveils Christ in His second coming in exultation. But, make no mistake, Jesus Christ is the theme. Many people assume this book hides things. People read this book and are confused by it. People read it and assume that it is some kind of mysterious, strange, exotic, unsolvable riddle. Some puzzle that man could not understand. They assume that it is vague, obscure, complex or incomprehensible and confusing. But this book is not the hiding, this book is The Revelation. It is not the covering, it is the uncovering. So, what does it uncover? What does it reveal? Let's listen and see…

Revelation Chapter 22

2021/08/29

We come to Revelation chapter 22 and a look at the capital city of heaven. When Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount, He included a marvelous promise to believers. He said to them, in Matthew 5:22, "Your reward in heaven is great". Jesus also included, tin the Sermon on the mOun, a command to lay up treasures in heaven. Later on , in the nineteenth chapter of Matthew, it is recorded that Jesus told the rich, young ruler theses words, "If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven, and come follow Me." Heaven is our place. It's where our inheritance is. It's where our reward is. It's where our hope is. It's where our treasure is laid up. Heaven is our eternal home and the place of eternal glory. And so, we're looking at heaven, particularly in Revelation 22, we're looking at the capital city of the eternal state, none other than what is called the "New Jerusalem," the "holy city," our forever home. It's the place where we're going to spend eternity.

Revelation Chapter 21

2021/08/22

Revelation, chapter 21 is by all accounts, our widest and clearest view of Heaven found in all of scripture. It is an amazing panorama of what is waiting for those who put their hope and trust in Jesus Christ. It is truly our eternal hope. Seems like most christians sacrifice the eternal blessing of glory on the temporal altar of gratification. We don't talk about or sing about heaven much because we really aren't too interested. So, let's consider heaven and what we have here... and compare it to there... Our Father is there, our Savior is there, our comforter, the Holy Spirit will be there. Our fellow believers are there, our name is there if we are born again, our life is there, our inheritance is there, our home is there, our citizenship is there, our reward is there, our treasure is there, if our heart is there. Folks, the closer we are to heaven the more we should be rejoicing. And everyday, we are one day closer. Alleluia!

Revelation Chapter 20

2021/08/15

Chapter 20 is a climatic chapter, brining us to the reign of Jesus Christ on earth and His coming glory in His 1000 year kingdom. It's the culmination of redemptive history as it unfolds in the world. This is the day that was described by the prophet Jeremiah in chapter 23 and verses 5-6 "the days are coming," declares the Lord, "when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch (Jesus). a King who will reign wisely and do what is just and right in the land. In his days Judah will be saved and Israel will live in safety. This is the name by which he will be called:The Lord Our Righteous Savior. Behold, the days are coming. It is the 1000 year kingdom that is the theme of chapter 20. This reign of Jesus Christ is in the city of Jerusalem, on the throne of David over Israel as a nation and over the whole world.

Revelation Chapter 19

2021/08/08

We have been through the day of the Lord. The final explosion of judgement on sinners on earth and celebration with saints in Heaven. Now, Christ is ready to take sovereign possession of the universe and take the earth back and restore it to the glorious standard of His kingdom over which He will reign for 1000 years. All of this happens in chapter 19 verse 11 "Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war". Before this happens, we are taken to Heaven for the first 10 verses. This is the last of the 7 visions of Heaven of Revelation. This is the rejoicing of the final destruction of the worlds evil and the glorious victory of the returning messiahs.

Revelation Chapter 18

2021/08/01

Nowhere in the bible, is it more clearly revealed that God is going to judge the world than in the book of Revelation. So, we come to chapter 18, just one chapter of 22 chapters, in the book of Revelation. In our study, we are looking at just one emphasis on that judgement here in chapter 18, and that is God's judgement that will fall in the end, on the world economic system. The entire world economic system is going to be under the control of one man known as the antichrist and it will be a socioeconomic and capitalistic system. It will be a luxurious, materialistic and capitalistic economy when Jesus comes and sets up a true kingdom and changes everything.

Revelation Chapter 17

2021/07/25

Immediately after the fall in Genesis 3, God began to reveal a plan to redeem mankind from sin, death and false religion because man does not look for God. At the same time, Satan began to wage war against that divine enterprise in order to lure people to worship false gods and not the true God. This evening, we are going to see this come to its culmination in the last days with a worldwide false religion. All of the separated parts of false religions are going to come together into one great false world religion called the great harlot or Mystery Babylon. Through the ages, Satan has spawned all of the false religions and they are all the same, attaching themselves to non-existent deities and teaching that man can save himself by his own works, his own achievements and self-righteousness and that the way to God is through ceremony, rite and ritual and it'll come together in one great world religion in the very end. The final empire on earth of Satan ruled by antichrist and the false prophet is going be a militaristic, materialistic, economic and political kingdom and also a spiritual and religious one. Chapter 18 will show the material side (economic and political) but tonite in chapter 17, we'll explore the spiritual side. Chapter 18 shows God’s judgement on the material aspect and chapter 17 shows God’s judgement on the spiritual aspect of that kingdom. In both cases, it is called Babylon. Satan’s world empire, with antichrist leading its material side and the false prophet leading its spiritual side.

Revelation Chapter 16

2021/07/18

Here in Chapter 16 of Revelation, sin and blasphemy are going to be swept from the earth by the final wrath of God in the time of the tribulation, immediately preceding the return of Christ. While Revelation is chronological, it back tracks. In chapters 17 and 18, we will go back over the tribulation from another view point to help us understand some things. Then, chapter 19 will go to the return of Jesus Christ. Tonite, these final judgements, in chapter 16 are very severe judgements and come in rapid succession against sin and against men who are at the apex of their worship of satan, blaspheming the name of Jesus and sinning that covers the entire world. And quite frankly, God is at the apex of His wrath.

Revelation Chapter 15

2021/07/11

Now chapter 15 introduces the final wrath or the 7 bowl judgements culminating with Armageddon and the return of Christ. The 7th trumpet is the same as the 3rd woe we talked about in chapter 11 verse 14 with trumpet judgements 5 and 6 being the first 2 woes. Chapters 15 and 16 prophetically portray the end of the world when Christ comes. Chapter 15 describes the preparation of the bowl judgments and chapter 16 describes the execution of the judgements. God's holiness demands that He judge and His love demands that He warns. So, the seven bowl judgements finish off the seventh seal culminating in the end of the world.

Revelation Chapter 14

2021/07/04

Colossians 2:13-15 When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14 having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. 15 And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross As we concluded chapter 11, we saw the 7th trumpet had sounded revealing the final bowl judgements. Then, chapters 12-14 deal with the in depth details of the final judgements culminating with the great battle of Armageddon, the defeat of Satan and Antichrist and the return of Christ. So, here we are in chapter 14 describing the finale of eschatological events...

Revelation Chapter 13

2021/06/27

In Chapters 6-11 we have been studying Revelation from God's perspective. Then, last time, we began studying Chapters 12-14 from Satan's perspective. Also, we are going to look at the next two characters presented... Last time we looked at First 4 characters in chapter 12... Woman-Israel Dragon-Satan Child-Jesus Michael-fighting Angel defending God's elect Then, the Last two who are.... Beast who comes up out of the sea-Anti Christ- world ruler (anti christ means-instead of) one who denies Jesus is the Christ and that He has not come in the flesh) and then the... Beast that comes up out of the earth-False Prophet-cohort-points everyone to anti-Christ.

Revelation Chapter 12

2021/06/20

So, Chapter 12 is a sweeping chapter as it covers clear back to when Satan fell, then, all the way to the return of Jesus Christ and it does it by literally bobbing and weaving back and forth. It embraces all of human history without a lot of detail but covers the great battles that have taken place between the forces of God and the forces of Satan.

Revelation Chapter 11

2021/06/13

As we begin our study today, in the book of Revelation in chapter 11, I want to read from Roman 11 starting in verse 25 as Paul gives us some background for this chapter... "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers and sisters, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening, in part, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved. As it is written: “The deliverer will come from Zion; he will turn godlessness away from Jacob. And this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins.” As far as the gospel is concerned, they are enemies for your sake; but as far as election is concerned, they are loved on account of the patriarchs, for God’s gifts and his call is irrevocable. What Paul is saying here to Israel, is a promise of their ultimate salvation. Their hardening is only partial and it is only temporary. That the day when all Israel will be saved is coming. This is God's covenant with them. The promise of His call and gifts that are irrevocable. The day is coming when Israel will be born-again into the family of God in one day. Has God cast away Israel? Nope. The time of Jacob's trouble which is known as the tribulation will also be the time of Israel's salvation. This is the theme of the first part of chapter 11
