The Revelation
Our study is completed - a wonderful learning experience that took six years and seven months to complete. There are still many mysteries contained within the Revelation, but the Lord has opened our eyes to many things because we took the time to look carefully at what John wrote. It has been my premise from the beginning 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; having completed the study, that urgency only seems to be heightened. Therefore, it has been 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").
