Revelation Lesson #11 Series

Contributed by Phillip Smith on Mar 27, 2024

We begin in chapter 11. In the beginning of this vision, John sees a man use a reed to measure the temple in Jerusalem. We have read a similar vision by Zechariah in the old testament. We witness the Last Trump and it's events.

A thorough study of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show his servants things which must shortly come to pass. (Rev. 1:1) Welcome to our study of the Revelation of Jesus Christ given unto Apostle John. I am Phillip Smith, your host and fellow servant of our Lord and ...read more

We, The Church, Are The Two Witnesses (Revelation 11:1-19) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jun 18, 2023

Here, the church joins John in giving clear testimony about Jesus. We have a ministry that combines power, with suffering. Through this combo, the world turns, fears God, and gives Him glory. A no-rapture, academically rigorous reading of Revelation.

This week, we have the privilege of working our way through Revelation 11. This is a rich, complex chapter. It's also a chapter where there's a lot of debate about how to read it. A friend of mine has a study Bible, and his notes told him that the chapter should be read literally. But ...read more

Fresh Revelation Of Slain Lamb Of God

Contributed by Samuel M on Jul 6, 2023

Just as John discovered or came to know in Revelation 5 that the Lamb is worthy to break(or open) the 7 seals and open the scroll, a fresh revelation of the slain lamb of God can break the locks and open all the closed doors in our lives.

The Danger Of Isolation And The Delight Of Fellowship

Contributed by Wayne Solomon on Mar 21, 2022

“Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” John made this statement partly because he was isolated. Isolation is one reason behind the increase in crime, domestic violence, suicide and mental health illnesses during COVID 19.

Theme: The Danger of Isolation and the Delight of Fellowship. Text: Matthew 11:1-3. Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities. 2 And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent ...read more

Four Steps To Bearing Fruit

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 6, 2022

John chapter 15 speaks of bearing fruit, which we often interpret as winning lost souls to Christ. However, winning people to Christ is only one meaning of the word fruit. Fruit symbolized the best result or sweetest prize in life.

One time on the farm I was sitting on my porch admiring the rose bushes that were in bloom. A couple of weeks prior they had appeared to be dead. They hadn’t been pruned in over two years since my mom passed away. Each bush was a huge mass of dead branches. My wife asked me about them, and I ...read more

The Villain Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Aug 23, 2024

It is important for us to understand the role The Villain plays in the story. He is not a guy in red pajamas carrying a pitchfork. He is the very worst of enemies and life can be very confusing if we don’t take into account that there is a Villain in the story. - John Eldredge

August 24, 2024 The Prologue concluded last week by telling us that Adam and Eve were naked, yet not ashamed. How long did this beautiful, peaceful, perfect situation last? We don’t know. God did not see fit to tell us the time span between the end of the Prologue and the beginning of the Big ...read more

Christ Lives In Me

Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Aug 20, 2018

The type of person we see in Jesus or indeed what Jesus means to us is very variable, unique and very personal - Jesus, not just a Leader, Teacher, Physician, not even as Saviour, but John describes Jesus as food. I AM the bread of life.

CHRIST LIVES IN ME. JOHN 6:51-58. Jesus said, ‘I AM the Bread of Life’ and this saying of Jesus has profound implications for a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ. In fact the type of person we see in Jesus or indeed what Jesus means to us is very variable, unique and very personal All of ...read more

A New Beginning Series

Contributed by David Owens on Aug 28, 2018

Even after Peter's wonderful surprises when Jesus was raised from the dead, he was still struggling to get past his failure. In John 21, we see Jesus giving Peter the opportunity to be reinstated to his role of apostle and leader.

Possessing Our Possessions

Contributed by Don Campbell on Dec 17, 2025

Jesus did not come just to keep us from burning in hell. He said, "I came that they may have life and have it abundantly" (John 10:10). Many believers live as orphans, not sons and daughters of the King.

POSSESSING OUR POSSESSIONS Obadiah vv. 15-17 I. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND A. Israel had failed to value the blessings of God, resulting in sin and captivity, and others taking possession of their land. B. Edom (Esau), the brother of Israel, stood by while Israel was plundered (vv. 19-14). C. Though ...read more

"My Good Shepherd”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 17, 2024

In John 10 Jesus reaffirms that He is fulfilling Ezekiel 34. Psalm 23 is a Psalm that touches a deep place within our souls. Why would Jesus compare Himself to a “shepherd” if in His own culture the role of the “shepherd” was a profession that was rejected?

In Jesus Holy Name April 21, 2024 Text: Psalm 23:1-3, John 10:11 Redeemer “My Good Shepherd” Psalm 23, may be the most familiar and favorite of all the psalms. The affirmation of God as our good shepherd implies a truth that touches a deep place within our souls. “Even ...read more

Present Standing Of Israel Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 9, 2020

Anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. Paul had shown earlier that everyone is lost. Now he repeats the good news -- Everyone can be saved! The “anyone” of Romans10:13, echoes the “everyone” of John 3:16.

(35) Present Standing of Israel Romans 10:5-12 5 For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the Law, “The man who does those things shall live by them.” 6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring ...read more

The Light Of The World

Contributed by Larry Grant on Dec 15, 2024

Mark is the only writer to record the healing of the of the deaf/mute and the healing of the blind at Bethsaida. John only teaches about the man born blind. What ties these three lessons together is that the Bible records Jesus using His spittle to heal them.

John 9:1-7 (NKJV) "The Light of the World" December 15, 2024 The four Gospels record more than 35 miracles, but apart from Jesus’ resurrection, feeding the 5,000 is the only miracle mentioned by all four. Not even something as amazing as the resurrection of Lazarus was recorded by more ...read more
