    The Person, Purpose, Penman, And Promise Of The Book Of Revelation (1:1-3)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 1, 2023
     | 1,082 views

    This message centers on the best method of interpreting Revelation, and how it presents to us the things that have been seen, the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter.

This last book of the Bible has been avoided because many seem to believe that it cannot be understood and that reading, studying, and preaching from it somehow tends to lead to confusion.

    A message relating how Jonah told the Ninevites they would be destroyed, and yet they weren't, and how on Rosh Hashana a persons fate is written in God's book, but it can be changed before the closing of the gates on Yom Kippur.

    Jonah Jonah is read every year on the most Holy Day in the Jewish calender, the day of Atonement. (Yom Kippur) To understand why we have to back up and explain a little bit about the Jewish feasts. There are 7 major Jewish feasts.

He saw a woman getting into a limousine and felt the need to witness to her. She was appalled at him. She said, "You should be ashamed of yourself". He said, "Mam, I’m am ...read more
