The Book of Revelation
"The book of Revelation was written at a time when severe persecution was upon the infant Church --near the close of the first century, probably A.D. 93-96, in the reign of the Emperor Domitian, though some date it nearly thirty years earlier, in the reign of Nero. No...
Revelation, the Major Players
The Beasts of Revelation
Although it is not referred to as a “beast” directly, the Dragon in Chapter 12 is indeed one in every important way. It meets all the requirements of constituting a beast. The Revelator wants us to recognize this by showing us that this...
Revelation, the Major Players
The book of Revelation has many actors on its stage, all of whom must be properly identified in order to arrive at a correct interpretation. That in it self will require a very careful study. The following is but a brief description of a few of these players to aid...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 17 continued, “And the dragon was enraged with the woman and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ, and he stood upon the sand of the sea”
A Genesis Parallel

Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 17 “And the dragon was enraged with the woman and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ, and he stood upon the sand of the sea”

Revelation Chapter 12
Verses 15 and 16 continued, “So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. But the earth helped the woman and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verses 15 and 16 “So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. But the earth helped the woman and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 14 “But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and a half a time, from the presence of the serpent.”
“When the apostasy got under way some of the church...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verses 13 “Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.”
The “dragon”—and it was angry—instead of directing its hostility against the “man-child,” directed it once again against the “woman” (the...
VERSE 31 “The sun (the Gospel light, the truth) shall be turned into darkness (obscured by the thick clouds of worldly wisdom), and the moon (the light of the Mosaic Law, i.e. the Law and the Prophets) into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.”
As the sunlight of the...
In our last post we took a look at Verses 28 and 29 of Joel’s prophecy; let us now examine the remainder of that prophecy, Verses 30-32.
“And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into...
From what we have gleamed thus far from some of the latest exchanges in regards to this prophecy and its fulfillment it appears that a further examination of the prophecy is prudent.
VERSES 28 and 29 “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 12 (continued) “Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and sea! For the devil has come down to you having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
“The “heavens” which are here called upon to...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verses 10-12 “Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God and the power of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 9 “So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
As Christianity spread in the Roman Empire, the powers of light and darkness came...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verses 7 and 8 “And war broke out in heaven; Michael and his angels fought with the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought, but they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any longer.”
“When did this war occur?
At first glance, the war would seem...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 6 continued, “Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.”
Our next question would be, what is it that she is “fed”, and who are the “they” who feed her?
“In...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 6 “Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.”
What is this “wilderness” to which the woman flees?
“The Wilderness, symbolizes a disrespected --outcast...
Revelation Chapter 12
Verse 5 continued, “She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and his throne.”
“The long desired favor of Rome came at last by the conversion of Constantine, A.D. 313, and there we believe the labor pangs of...
Revelation Chapter 12
“Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars. Then being with child, she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth. And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery...
