A comprehensive outline, overview, and verse-by-verse study of the Book of Revelation. The many lessons show you how to understand the book. Several core lessons deal with subjects such as times and seasons, tribulation, the dragon, heaven, etc. These support the detailed exposition.
Reading the book of Revelation requires having “ears to hear” (Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 29; 3:6, 13, 22). Each sign and symbol contains new insights just waiting for our discovery. Nevertheless, seven distinctive themes emerge from behind the many signs and symbols in Revelation.
- THE REVELATION OF JESUS. v.1 The word "revelation" in Greek is apocalypse and means "unveiling." This book is the unveiling of Jesus Christ in His relationship to the Church, to judgment, and to what is to come.
- EPHESUS, SMYRNA, PERGAMOS, THYATIRA. v.2 "I know thy works"-Jesus is aware of what we do and our motivations. v.4 The labor of the church at Ephesus was not motivated by love.
- SARDIS, PHILADELPHIA, LAODICEA. v.1-5 Sardis is the dead Protestant church that kept too many of the pagan rituals and holidays of the churches of Thyatira and Pergamos after the Reformation.
- THE THRONE OF GOD. v.1 After these things-the things of the Church-the Rapture will take place when the trumpet calls, "Come up hither." v.4 The 24 elders may be specially created beings representing the Old and New Testaments or the Church in heaven.
The correct way however to consider the Revelation is to look at chapters 4 to 22 regarding the future (see also paragraph 2 Purpose and Subject). This view has already been seen, in part, by the Church Fathers. The book of Revelation is the fulfilment of every biblical prophecy.
The Book of Revelation concerns many prophetic events, but the book closes with John’s longing for the return of Jesus for His people — he wants the rapture of the church. ii. “If the whole creation groans and travails together in pain for the manifestation of the sons of God, how much more those sons of God themselves!” (Seiss)
1. (Revelation 11:3-6) The ministry of the two witnesses. And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”. These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the God of the earth.
