Let’s look first at Revelation 17:12 – this can give you some understanding you haven’t had before. Focus on this with me and try to see it all at once. It’s talking about the great Babylon and the evil things that are on the earth – and John sees this woman who is “drunk with the blood of God’s holy people and with the blood of the saints, those who were killed because of the faith in Jesus.”
This system, this harlot system, causes the death… what could it be? Who’s responsible for all the deaths? Who’s responsible for the murder of the Christians – of the saints? Continue reading →
We are living in amazing days! This is the time the Bible refers to as the last days which are sometimes called perilous times, and also called, “The days of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.”
Look at Acts 2:17-21 and see the good and bad events of these days!…
And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke:
The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. KJVContinue reading →
The good news is that God will reward His servants, the small and the great (Matthew 16:27; Revelation 22:12). The bad news is that He will “destroy those who destroy the earth,” not just ecologically, but through the effects of their sin. Ironic, isn’t it? The people who live for the earth and its pleasures are often the ones who are destroying the very world they worship. In truth, the world does not belong to them. Continue reading →
First, there is the announcement of victory by “loud voices in heaven” (Revelation 11:15). The voices could come from angelic choirs or the saints who are already in heaven. The Bible doesn’t say specifically. What is important is the content of their announcement: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever” (v. 15). This is the moment we believers have been waiting for—the Rapture!
What leads me to view this moment as the true Rapture? I noticed that prior passages referred to Jesus as “Him who is and who was and who is to come” (1:4; 4:8). In Revelation 11:17, however, He is referred to as the One “who is and who was” (niv). The King James Version includes the phrase “and art to come,” but these words are not in the Greek. In fact, John no longer needs to include the words “and is to come” because, at this point, Jesus has returned! Continue reading →
