The Revelation of Jesus Christ (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781946823021)

For many, Revelation is a closed book.

This study will open it up for you.

In the book of Revelation, the warning is given. What we do with it is up to us.

Preachers don't preach it, and teachers don't teach it. The principle rule in this book is that "scripture must interpret scripture." The book of Revelation was written to the saints so that we will have some idea what the future holds, just before, during and after the tribulation period. Some people believe that after the tribulation the world will end, but that's not so. This world will continue for over a thousand years before the end. It's simply that people don't understand what they read, or what they've been told.

The book of Revelation contains the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him for one specific purpose. What is that? To show unto his servant John things "which must shortly come to pass." Revelation, despite what many people believe or say, is not the revelation of John. The Word tells us point blank that the book of Revelation is the revelation of Jesus Christ. John was only the vessel that Jesus used to write the warning to the churches and to the saints of what the future holds for the world.

Jesus is coming back. The scripture says that He is coming with clouds, every eye shall see Him, and all the people of the earth shall wail. Jesus tells us who He is: the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the Almighty.

In 2 Timothy 2:15, we read the following: "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." So, to be doing God's will and work, we must study. I can truly agree with part of Richard Chichester's prayer to enable men and women ". . . to know Jesus Christ more clearly, to love him more dearly, and to follow him more nearly."

Every Christian needs a copy of this book to do just that.
