    The End Times can e really confusing and a little scary. Here are the nuts and bolts of Revelation and some helpful points to keep in mind.

    The End Times and the book of Revelations is something that I got really interested about back in High School.

    In the parable of the 10 virgins 5 make it to the banquet while 5 miss out. The difference was in the preparation - a lack of oil. Are we spiritually prepared or do we lack the oil?
