Truth Matters 84 (May 24 - 28)

Dr. Cheryl Davis and thank you for joining me again as we continue our study in the book of Revelation.

If you listen to the last.

I went through a overview of general Everson content probably as really sometimes difficult to understand but were trying to simplify it as easily as we can.

We ask a couple questions as part how do we know that she's coming back is coming that if you look around today and people walking on the street was the most common is that you're reading right now in the Bible. It may not really be the book of Revelation, or it may not be the Bible itself in general is not an interest in reading the Bible or particularly the book of Revelation.

Some may shy away from reading the book of Revelation, because they may think it's only a book of doom and gloom and instruction for the church promise of salvation for Israel and the restoration of God's creation of heaven and while symbolism may be confusing to some understanding the symbolism helps one to understand the life-giving message of Jesus Dr. Davison lesson number two in the revealing of the day the Messiah, the King of Kings and the Lord of lords. In verse one. Revelation comes in the Greek word apocalypse.

This for apocalypse apocalypse means and uncovering or an unveiling setting forth or a manifestation of Revelation is the uncovering of Jesus Christ as we have said before, is the messianic book Jesus is the Messiah is and uncovering of Jesus Christ.

The primary focus of the book of Revelation is to unveil the Lord Jesus Christ in his role as coming King over all the earth and then to say that one more time as this is an important point.

The primary focus of the book of Revelation is to unveil the Lord Jesus Christ and his role as coming change over all the earth.

In verse one it says to show his servants things which must shortly take place shortly comes from the word takeoffs which we get our word tachometer something that will happen quickly as in a succession of events once they began to unfold. Moving on to verse two who bore witness to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ to all things that he saw.

This was sent from God to John via his angel John his beloved bore witness to the word of God. The testimony of Jesus Christ to all things he saw. So in verse one.

It tells us this is a prophetic book in verse two. It tells us this is a pictorial book because John is writing of all the things he saw, which reinforces that this is a pictorial book moving on to verse 30. Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it for the time is near. This is a prophetic anticipation of Revelation when John wrote this book. It was later than it ever had been and I want to spend just a minute here it is later than it ever has been the coming of Jesus Christ is closer than it ever has been in 1978, the late gospel songwriter Andre Crouch wrote and recorded the song soon and very soon. This is perfectly with Dr. Davis as stated today in her lesson the coming of Jesus is getting closer and closer every day when Crouch wrote the song. He was inspired by the words of Revelation 21 verses three and four and I heard a loud voice from the throne, now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with.

They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God, wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.

Soon the curtains of the old order will be pulled down for every eye to see. As Jesus appears on earth bringing into existence a new order order of love, peace, goodness and righteousness that will last for eternity. No longer will God's people suffer and die, but shall live in the light of the glory of God for eternity.

If you would like to be a part of this glorious new life.

When Jesus returns sure of your standing with the Lord today.
