Often, the hardest thing about receiving something new for us is that....................
Chapter 19
This chapter could well be two chapters. The first ten verses deal with "the marriage of the lamb." The remainder jumps back to the beginning of the harvest to give us yet another perspective on how the current social order will meet its end.
The "marriage of the lamb" is a symbol...
Chapters 14 through 19 in Brief
Chapter 14
Jesus appears on the scene in 14:14. Note why.
Verse 15 clearly states that the time for HARVEST is begun. As he promised in his Matthew 13 parable, there is a harvest of TWO groups:
(1) The harvest of the earth (THE WHEAT) in verses 15 and 16; and...
A Closer Look at Section 2 (Chapters 14-19)
"Men's hearts failing them for fear" - Luke 21:26
Chapters 14 through 19 focus on events at the close of the Gospel Age -- THE HARVEST. This is a complex period. In it the world is experiencing troubles it cannot handle, and Christianity is faced...
Joshua and his men shortly arrived home after defeating his opponents in battle. Then Joshua suspected that their were spies roaming about the country and sent his men to Rahab's house to help discover the truth. Once the men were safely secured at Rahab's house she held the men captive for a...
As the predecessor to the wise ruler Moses, Joshua was required to rule in his place as the leader in charge. Given the title as leader, Joshua was forced to take on the task of primary leadership according to the careful instructions from God. As part of Joshua's role as a leader God instructed...

Origin and Scriptural Evaluation of "The Seven-Year Tribulation" Theory

This will be followed (not necessarily immediately) by seven...

Seven Churches
The Lord decided to divide the history of the Christian Church into seven periods -- periods which are unique in their experiences, history, and doctrinal understandings. He gives each of these periods a symbolic name and introduces us to them in Rev 1:11.
Jesus watches over...
To see the structure of Revelation is to see more than most theologians throughout history have been privileged to see the following information can be the key to a very large measure of understanding of Revelation. Even though Revelation is a very complicated prophecy, its BASIC SIMPLICITY is...

5. TIME-FRAME STUDY
Not all scriptures nor all Scriptural injunctions apply at all times. For example, there was a time when God dealt with the Jewish nation and no one else (Amos 3:2); and there is now a time when placing ourselves under the ten commandments of the Jewish Law is inappropriate...
It is not the purpose of this study to give an in-depth or detailed interpretation of Revelation (We’ll save that for later). Instead, this study is designed simply to provide an outline that is generally accepted as sound by serious, enlightened students of the Bible. It also will provide the...

“We began this study with a list of seven questions that are basic to an understanding of God's plan (and hence are basic to an understanding of the details of prophecy that are found in Revelation). To close this chapter we will ask the same seven questions and this time give concise answers to...
The Gospel is summarized in God's promise to Abraham, "In thy seed shall all nations be blessed."
What does this mean? Notice that it involves two distinct and separate parts:
1. Abraham's seed.
2. All nations (or families) of earth.
Abraham's seed is not totally as Abraham might have...
THE OTHER HALF OF THE GOSPEL
“Genesis begins with the fall of man. Revelation concludes with the restoration of man. In Genesis the curse falls on man. In Revelation the curse is "no more." In Genesis are the promises that the "seed of the woman" and the seed of Abraham will destroy the enemy...
