The Revelation - under construction
In our home study, we have been working our way through this book since the beginning of 2013. It has been my premise that there is less urgency in trying to understand all that the Lord has said about the coming days than there is in how we are living today. Therefore, as I study, it is my underlying goal to provide encouragement and challenge for today; unless we are living Biblically today, what assurance do we have concerning the days ahead? As Jesus made it so very clear, it is only as we remain faithful (obedient) to Him until the end (either our death or His coming) that we will be saved (Matthew 24:13). He also warned us not to be deceived; the deception that has filled Evangelicalism (not to mention other denominations and religions) is massive. Our only defense against deception is to know the Word of God, and willingly follow the leading of the Spirit of God (not the "pastor").
This study is on-going, and I will post it as we are able to prepare it for this site.
After completing the study of Chapter 5, it became evident that a chapter-by-chapter study was not going to work for the next areas of Revelation. Chapter 12 will be the final complete chapter in one study module, as it deals with one topic - God's Kingdom. For the following studies I will be doing topical studies, bringing together the related passages.
