1. Reverse The Curse
Contributed on Jan 23, 2006
Many times we don’t realize that the pain and suffering of this world is caused by a curse that God will reverse during the Tribulation. Learn the origins, effects, and ending of this worldwide curse.
Revelation 22:3 "And there shall be no more curse…" KJV Why do we care about the curse and how God reverses it in Revelation? Because we all feel the effects of the curse each day of our lives. Our bodies decay, the people we love die, there are famines to endure, we have to work for food and ...read more

2. What Is Heaven Like?
Contributed on Feb 1, 2006
We see in Revelation 4 that the first words John hears are worship - and that the highest order of angels and the best of the redeemed humans bow to God - what does that tell us about our activities here on earth?
Chapter 4 marks a huge shift in the book of the Revelation. First, we leave the epistle section of chapters 2 and 3 where Jesus Himself wrote to the church. Second we leave the church age itself. Third we enter into the main section of the book - apocalyptic literature takes over from epistle. ...read more

3. God's Seal
Contributed on Feb 26, 2006
Do you ever feel like God doesn’t know or care what you are going through? Does it seem like your life is out of control or out of God’s control? Learn about God’s seal of ownership and protection as we study the sealed saints and the Tribulation Christia
This chapter is an interlude between the 6th and 7th seals - just as there are pauses after the 6th trumpet and 6th bowl judgments. 1After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or ...read more

The Last Plagues - The Battle of Armageddon, & The End of Man’s Reign
A volcano can go for hundreds or thousands of years without erupting - then in one day unleash terrible destruction. That’s what happened in May of 1980 with the eruption of Mt St. Helens in southern Washington State. While we don’t see it - pressure builds up until the breaking point. In a way, ...read more

5. The Coming Warrior King
Contributed on May 9, 2006
Like the cavalry to the rescue, Jesus comes riding back to earth on a white horse to wipe out the enemy and set up His kingdom. What does that mean to us as we find ourselves in need of rescue right here and now?
As we move into chapters 19 and 20 of The Book of the Revelation we can breathe a big sigh of relief. No more plagues and catastrophes, no more rebellion and evil ruling the planet. We transition from what’s going on in heaven and earth separately - to the two becoming one - as Jesus Christ returns ...read more

6. Heaven Homecoming
Contributed on May 15, 2006
If you’ve ever wondered what heaven is like, we get one of our most complete looks at it in the final chapters of Revelation. We’ll also see heaven and hell compared.
When you think of heaven, what comes to your mind? The stereotypical view is of white puffy clouds, with us dressed in white robes with wings, carrying harps and just lazing around all day with nothing to do. Is that heaven? No. Chapters 21 and 22 of Revelation give us about as much information ...read more
