THE BOOK OF REVELATION (6)

THE SIX SEALS AND THE SEALING.

SEALS ARE NOT IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER---THE TRUMPS ARE.

Revelation 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts (CHERUBIM, NOT BEASTS. THEY ARE THE GUARDS OF THE MERCY SEAT) saying, "Come and see."

6:2 And I saw, and behold, a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow (A CHEAP IMITATION BOW=TOXON IN THE GREEK); and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

THE FALSE CHRIST GOING FORTH TO MAKE A SPIRITUAL WAR ON GOD'S ELECT.

THIS IS THE FIRST SEAL.

6:3 And when He had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, "Come and see."

6:4 And there went out another horse (THE EXACT SAME TIME) that was red (A WAR HORSE): and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

THIS IS A SPIRITUAL DEATH, NOT PHYSICAL.

THE SEALS ARE NOT IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER.

HE IS COMING PEACEFULLY BRINGING PROSPERITY TO THE WORLD (DANIEL 8:23-25).

Daniel 8:23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance (SATAN PLAYING THE ROLE OF CHRIST), and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

8:24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and HE SHALL DESTROY WONDERFULLY, AND SHALL PROSPER, AND PRACTICE, AND SHALL DESTROY (SPIRITUALLY) THE MIGHTY AND THE HOLY PEOPLE (THE CHURCH).

THE CHURCH (EXCEPT GOD'S ELECT) WILL BE DECEIVED BY HIM.

WHY? BECAUSE THEY RATHER LISTEN TO CHURCH DOCTRINES THAN THE WORD OF GOD.

THEY THINK THEY WILL BE RAPTURED OUT OF HERE WHEN GOD SAYS THEY ARE NOT (II THESS. 2:3, REV. 2:10).

8:25 And through his policy (BY DECEPTION) also he shall cause craft (DECEIT) to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart (PRIDE), AND BY PEACE (NOT WAR) SHALL DESTROY MANY: he shall also stand up against the Prince (CHRIST) of princes; but he shall be broken without hand (CAST DOWN TO THE PIT; REV. 20).

BACK TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION.

Revelation 6:5 And when He had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, "Come and see." And I beheld, and lo, a black horse (SIGNIFYING SPIRITUAL FAMINE); and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

THE FAMINE OF THE END TIMES IS HEARING THE WORD OF GOD.

Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing words of the LORD:

8:12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD and shall not find it.

THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF GIFTED TEACHERS IN OUR TIME.

8:13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.

BACK TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION.

Revelation 6:6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, "A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny (A DAY'S SALARY); and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine."

SATAN IS BEING ORDERED NOT TO HURT GOD'S ELECT.

6:7 And when He had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, "Come and see."

6:8 And I looked, and behold, a pale horse (SYMBOLIC OF DEATH; ONE OF SATAN'S NAMES): and his name that sat on him was Death (SATAN'S NAME), and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them (SATAN'S ARMY) over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword (TO KILL SPIRITUALLY BY DECEPTION), and with hunger (SPIR. HUNGER FOR THE TRUE WORD), and with death (SPIRITUAL DEATH), and with the beasts of the earth (THE KENITES AND EVIL SPIRITS).

6:9 And when He had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

THE ONES THAT HAVE GIVEN THEIR LIVES TO CHRIST FROM BEFORE.

6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost Thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?"

HOW LONG BEFORE YOU AVENGE OUR BLOOD AND DESTROY OUR ENEMIES?

6:11 And white robes (SYMBOLIC OF RIGHTEOUS ACTS) were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed (THE TWO WITNESSES) as they were, should be fulfilled.

6:12 And I beheld when He had opened the sixth seal, and lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

6:13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth (SATAN AND HIS ANGELS), even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs (OUT OF SEASON), when is shaken of a mighty wind (THE SPIRIT OF GOD).

SATAN AND HIS ANGELS WILL BE HERE ON THE SIXTH SEAL (THE TRUE CHRIST ON THE SEVENTH).

6:14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

MAKE A NOTE OF ISAIAH 34.

6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and their chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains,

WHY DID THEY DO THAT? BECAUSE THEY WORSHIPPED SATAN THINKING HE IS CHRIST (THIS INCLUDES CHRISTIANS WHO ARE DECEIVED).

6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him That sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

THEY ARE ASHAMED TO SEE THE TRUE CHRIST APPEAR.

WHY? BECAUSE THEY WORSHIPPED THE FIRST ONE TO COME THINKING HE IS CHRIST.

THEY DID NOT LISTEN TO THE SCRIPTURES.

6:17 For the great day of His wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?"

THE DAY OF VENGEANCE.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (5)

Revelation 5:1 And I saw in the right hand of Him That sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

THIS BOOK WAS A SCROLL AND IT WAS COMPLETE.

5:2 And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?"

THIS BOOK IS THE WORD OF GOD.

MAKE A NOTE OF EZEKIEL 2:9-10.

Ezekiel 2:9 And when I looked, behold, an hand was sent unto me; and, lo, a roll of a book was therein;

2:10 And He spread it before me; and it was written within and without (IN TOTAL COMPLITNESS): and there was written therein lamentations, and mourning, and woe.

BACK TO REVELATION.

Revelation 5:3 And no man in heaven, nor in earth, NEITHER UNDER THE EARTH (SATAN'S WORLD), was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

NOBODY IN THE FLESH WAS WORTHY BECAUSE WE ARE NOT PERFECT.

5:4 And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

5:5 And one of the elders saith unto me, "Weep not: behold, THE LION (JESUS) of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof."

JESUS IS THE ONE WHO RELEASES THE SEVEN SEALS TO THE WORLD.

5:6 And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts (THE CHERUBIM THAT GUARD THE MERCY SEAT), and in the midst of the elders (THE 12 PATRIARCHS AND THE 12 APOSTLES), stood a Lamb as it had been slain (JESUS AFTER THE CRUCIFIXION), having seven horns (SYMBOLIC OF HIS POWER) and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

SEVEN EYES = SYMBOLIC OF HIS SEVEN THOUSAND ELECT (ZECH. 3:9).

Zechariah 3:9 For behold the stone I have laid before Joshua ; upon one stone shall be seven eyes (GOD'S ELECT): behold, I will engrave thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day.

WHERE DOES THE WORD POINTS OUT THE SEVEN THOUSAND ELECT ?

Romans 11:4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? "I have reserved to Myself seven thousand men (CHILDREN), who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal."

BACK TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION.

Revelation 5:7 And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him (GOD) that sat upon the throne.

5:8 And when He had taken away the book, the four beasts (THE CHERUBIM THAT GUARD THE MERCY SEAT; THEY ARE NOT BEASTS) and four and twenty elders (THE 12 PATRIARCHS, AND THE 12 APOSTLES) fell down before the Lamb, having everyone of them harps (KITHARA IN THE GREEK = A GUITAR), and golden vials full of odors (INCENSE), which are the prayers of the saints (SYMBOLIZES THE PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS).

5:9 And they sung a new song, saying, "Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood out of every kindred (RACE), and tongue, and people, and nation;

5:10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests, and we shall reign in the earth."

GOD'S ELECT WILL TEACH IN THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN).

MAKE A NOTE OF REV. 20:6.

THE MILLENNIUM TEACHING PERIOD IS WRITTEN IN EZEKIEL 44.

THE ONES WHO NEVER HAD THE CHANCE LEARNING ABOUT CHRIST, AND THE ONES SATAN DECEIVED (MOST CHRISTIANS), WILL LEARN HOW TO DISCERN BETWEEN THE HOLY AND THE PROFANE, IN THE MILLENNIUM.

HOWEVER, THEY WILL BE TESTED AGAIN WHEN SATAN IS RELEASED FOR A SHORT TIME (FROM THE PIT). IT WILL BE UP TO THEM WHO THEY FOLLOW ; GOD OR SATAN (REV. 20).

THE CHRISTIANS WHO FOLLOWED SATAN THINKING HE IS CHRIST, WILL LOSE THEIR SALVATION. THEY'LL BE TAUGHT IN THE MILLENNIUM AND BE TESTED AGAIN.

5:11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; (A HEBRAISM = A FIGURE OF SPEECH FOR COUNTLESS, BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T COUNT THEM; SOME OF THEM HAVEN'T OVERCOME)

5:12 Saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb That was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing."

THE SEVEN THINGS TO THOSE WHO WOULD RELEASE THEMSELVES FROM THE TRADITIONS OF MEN.

5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea (WATER IS SYMBOLIC OF PEOPLE= REV. 17:15), and all that are in them, heard I saying, "Blessing and honor, and glory, and power, be unto Him That sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb forever and ever."

THE FOURFOLD ASCRIPTION BY THE WHOLE CREATION.

5:14 And the four beasts said "Amen (THAT IS THAT)." And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped Him That liveth forever and ever.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (4)

JOHN IS TAKEN TO HEAVEN, TO SEE THE EVENTS THAT WILL TRANSPIRE ON HEAVEN AND EARTH JUST BEFORE THE RETURN OF OUR LORD.

Revelation 4:1 After this I looked, and behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me, which said, "Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter."

4:2 And immediately I was in the Spirit: and behold, a throne was set in heaven, and One sat on the throne.

GOD WAS THE ONE ON THE THRONE.

4:3 And He That sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like an emerald.

JASPER AND SARDINE = THE FIRST AND THE LAST STONE ON THE PRIEST'S BREASTPLATE. IT HAS TO DO WITH ALL THE TRIBES OF ISRAEL AND EVEN THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD NATIONS ; GOD'S PRIESTLY LEADERSHIP SERVICE AND THE BRILLIANT LIGHT AROUND THAT THRONE.

4:4 And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment (SYMBOLIC OF RIGHTEOUS ACTS); and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

THEY HAD OVERCOME.

TWENTY FOUR ELDERS = THE 12 PATRIARCHS AND THE 12 APOSTLES.

4:5 And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices: and there were seven lamps of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

4:6 And before the throne there was a sea of glass like unto crystal (IT WAS PURE): and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, were four beasts full of eyes before and behind (THE BEASTS ARE THE CHERUBIMS THAT GUARD THE MERCY SEAT).

4:7 And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle.

GOD USES SYMBOLS, HEBRAISMS, METAPHORS, FIGURES OF SPEECH TO BRING FORTH HIS MESSAGE.

MAKE A NOTE OF EZEKIEL 1:4.

THESE ARE THE VEHICLES THE CHERUBIM WERE IN.

4:8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes (SYMBOLIC, MEANING THEY WERE ALL SEEN PROTECTING THE MERCY SEAT) within: and they rest not day and night, saying, "Holy, holy, holy, LORD God Almighty, Which was, and is, and is to come."

THESE SPIRIT BEINGS, OR CHERUBIMS, DO NOT HAVE FREE WILL.

THEY WERE CREATED TO LOVE GOD.

AFTER THE FALL OF SATAN IN THE FIRST EARTH AGE, GOD WAS NOT GOING TO CREATE ANOTHER ANGEL WITH FREE WILL TO GUARD THE MERCY SEAT.

4:9 And when those beasts (CHERUBIM) give glory and honor and thanks to Him That sat on the throne, Who liveth forever and ever.

THESE SPIRITUAL BEINGS WERE PROGRAMMED TO LOVE AND OBEY GOD.

4:10 The four and twenty elders fall down before Him That sat on the throne, and worship Him That liveth forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

4:11 "Thou art worthy, O LORD, to receive glory and honor and power: for Thou has created all things, and for Thy pleasure they are and were created."

GOD HAS CREATED US FOR HIS PLEASURE.

HAVE YOU GIVING HIM PLEASURE LATELY?

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (3)

CONTINUING OUR STUDY WITH REVELATION CHAPTER THREE.

THE SUBJECT STAYS THE SAME : THE CHURCHES OF OUR TIME.

Revelation 3:1 And unto the angels of the church in Sardis write ; 'These things saith He That hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead (SPIRITUALLY DEAD).

SEVEN STARS = ANGELS (REV. 1:20).

Revelation 3:2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

HANG ON TO THE THINGS YOU GOT.

HE COMPLIMENTS THE PART THAT THEY WERE TRYING.

Revelation 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard (WITH UNDERSTANDING), and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

THIS CHURCH DOES NOT EXPECT THE TRUE CHRIST TO RETURN BECAUSE THEY THING HE IS ALREADY HERE.

IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WILL WORSHIP SATAN THINKING HE IS CHRIST, THEREFORE, THEY DON'T EXPECT CHRIST TO APPEAR.

Revelation 3:4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me in white: for they are worthy.

THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THAT CHURCH THAT KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THEY WILL PUT ON THEIR RIGHTEOUS GARMENTS TO MEET THE TRUE CHRIST.

Revelation 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I WILL NOT BLOT OUT HIS NAME (TO BE LIKE YOU NEVER EXISTED IN THE GREEK) OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, but I will confess his name before My Father, and before His angels.

Revelation 3:6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.'

NOT EVERYONE HAS EARS TO HEAR. GOD HAS PUT BLINDERS ON SOME FOR THEIR OWN PROTECTION (ROMANS 11:7-10). THEY ARE WEAK TO FIGHT (SPIRITUALLY) FOR CHRIST.

THIS IS THE REASON WHY THEY CAN'T UNDERSTAND THE SCRIPTURES, AND THEY ACTUALLY CRITICIZE TEACHERS THAT TRY TO TEACH THEM THE TRUTH.

Revelation 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write ; 'These things saith He That is Holy, He That is True, He That hath the key of David, He that openeth, and no man shutteth,and no man openeth;

THIS CHURCH IS PERFECT IN GOD'S EYES.

Revelation 3:8 I know thy works; behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept My word, and hast not denied My name (FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S).

THIS CHURCH KNOWS THE TRUTH AND HAS KEPT GOD'S WORD INSTEAD OF SOMEONE ELSE'S. THEY DON'T HAVE THEIR OWN CHURCH DOCTRINES, BUT HAVE KEPT THE TRUE WORD OF GOD.

Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not (THIS ONE ALSO TEACHES THE SEEDLINE), but do lie (THEY KNOW WHO THE KENITES ARE); behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I HAVE LOVED THEE.

Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of My patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation (YOU WON'T FIND SATAN TEMPTING BECAUSE YOU WILL KNOW WHO HE IS), which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that NO MAN TAKE THY CROWN (DO NOT LISTEN TO MEN'S DOCTRINES THAT CAN MAKE YOU LOSE YOUR SALVATION).

WHAT IS A MAN'S DOCTRINE ? THE RAPTURE.

THESE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE IN THE RAPTURE WILL WORSHIP SATAN THINKING HE IS CHRIST. THIS IS THE GREAT APOSTASI OF THE CHURCH (II THESS. 2:3).

THEREFORE, THEIR CROWN WILL BE TAKEN BY THE FALSE CHRIST.

Revelation 3:12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the Temple of My God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from My God: and I will write upon him My new name (HE RETAKES HIS WIFE, ISAIAH 62:4).

WE ARE TOLD IN REV. 2:17, WE ARE GOING TO GET A NEW NAME.

Revelation 3:13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.'

Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; 'These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

Revelation 3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

THIS CHURCH AFRAID TO MAKE A STAND.

Revelation 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of My mouth (EMEO IN THE GREEK = THROW UP).

THIS CHURCH IS WORSE THAN ALL THE OTHERS.

THEY ARE AFRAID TO MAKE A STAND AND THEY WON'T EVEN TRY TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH. THEY ARE CONTENT WITH PLAYING CHURCH.

Revelation 3:17 Because thou sayest, "I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;" and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

YOU THINK YOU ARE RICH AND BLESSED AND DON'T NEED TO ADVANCE YOUR LEARNING OF THE WORD, THEREFORE, YOU ARE POOR SPIRITUALLY, BLIND (DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH), AND NAKED (YOU'LL GET NO BLESSINGS FROM ME).

Revelation 3:18 I counsel thee to buy of Me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see.

HE IS ASKING THIS CHURCH TO CHANGE ITS WAYS, SO THEY WILL BE ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB.

THE WHITE RAIMENT IS SYMBOLIC OF YOUR RIGHTEOUS ACTS.

MAKE A NOTE OF REV. 19:7-9.

Revelation 3:19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten (HE DISCIPLINES THE ONES HE LOVES): be zealous (BE ANXIOUS ABOUT HIM; TO SHOW YOU THE WAY) therefore, and repent.

Revelation 3:20 Behold, I STAND AT THE DOOR, AND KNOCK: IF ANY MAN HEAR MY VOICE, AND OPEN THE DOOR, I WILL COME IN TO HIM, AND WILL SUP WITH HIM (SPIRITUAL FOOD), AND HE WITH ME.

IN OTHER WORDS, JESUS WON'T BEG; HE WILL COME IN IF YOU OPEN THE DOOR.

Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with My Father in His throne.

A GRACIOUS PROMISE TO HIS SERVANTS, NOT TO THIS CHURCH OF THIS DISPENSATION.

THE LORD NOW STANDS, AND IS ABOUT TO COME DOWN IN JUDGMENT.

Revelation 3:22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.' "

CHRIST FOUND ONLY TWO TYPES OF CHURCHES (OUT OF SEVEN) OF OUR TIME HE IS PLEASED WITH. HE IS NOT PLEASED WITH THE MAJORITY OF THEM.

WHAT DID THESE TWO CHURCHES HE IS PLEASED WITH TEACHES ?

THEY TEACH THE SEEDLINE ; WHO ARE THE KENITES (SATAN'S OFFSPRING) AND UNDER WHAT NAME THEY HIDE THEIR TRUE IDENTITY...

MAKE A NOTE OF JOHN 8:42-47.

DON'T MISS OUR NEXT STUDY.

REVELATION 4, ADDRESSES THE FIRST VISION IN HEAVEN; JOHN IS TAKEN TO HEAVEN.

GOD BLESS

Wednesday, June 2, 2021

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (2)

REVELATION 2 & 3 ADDRESSES EACH ONE OF THOSE SEVEN TYPES OF CHURCHES (SYMBOLIC OF THE CHURCHES OF TODAY), AND WHICH ONES CHRIST FOUND NO FAULT.

Revelation 2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus (PERMITTED IN THE GREEK) write ; 'These things saith He That holdeth the seven stars in His right hand, Who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

Revelation 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labor and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil, and thou hast tried them which they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

THEY KNOW WHEN SOMEONE IS FALSE IN THE BASIS OF THEIR SYSTEM.

Revelation 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for My name's sake hast labored, and hast not fainted.

Revelation 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy FIRST LOVE (GOD).

THIS CHURCH CARES MORE ABOUT THEIR CHURCH SYSTEM THAN GOD AND HIS WORD.

Revelation 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the FIRST WORKS (IN LEARNING THE LIVING WORD) : or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.

IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOU DON'T GO BACK INTO MY WORD, I'LL CUT YOU OFF FROM THE MANY MEMBERED BODY OF CHRIST.

Revelation 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

HISTORY HAS NO RECORD OF THE NICOLAITANES. THEY WILL APEEAR "IN THAT DAY". ALL WE DO KNOW IS THAT, THEY ARE HATERS OF GOD.

Revelation 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches ; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the TREE OF LIFE (CHRIST, REV. 22:14), which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.'

NOT EVERYONE (INCLUDING MANY CHRISTIANS) HAVE EYES TO SEE THE TRUTH.

GOD PUT BLINDERS ON SOME PEOPLE FOR THEIR OWN PROTECTION (ROMANS 11:7-10). WHY ? BECAUSE IF THEY WORSHIP SATAN KNOWNIGLY THEY WOULD HAVE COMMITTED THE UNFORGIVABLE SIN. THEY ARE TOO WEAK TO STAND UP FOR CHRIST.

Revelation 2:8 And unto the angel of the church of Smyrna write ; 'These things saith the First and the Last (START AND FINISH), Which was dead, and is alive ;

CHRIST IS PLEASED WITH THIS CHURCH.

Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty (but thou art rich), and I know THE BLASPHEMY OF THEM WHICH SAY THEY ARE JEWS, AND ARE NOT, BUT ARE THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN.

THIS CHURCH TEACHES THE SEEDLINE. THY KNOW WHO THE TRUE JEWS ARE.

Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer : behold, THE DEVIL SHALL CAST SOME OF YOU INTO PRISON, THAT YE MAY BE TRIED ; AND YE SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION TEN DAYS : BE THOU FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH, AND I WILL GIVE THEE A CROWN OF LIFE.

THE ELECT CHURCH WILL GO THROUGH SATAN'S TRIBULATION.

THE TRIAL WILL BE TEN DAYS, THEREFORE, THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A RAPTURE.

DEATH = ONE OF SATAN'S NAMES IS DEATH (HEBREWS 2:14).

Revelation 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches ; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.'

THE ONES WHO HAVE BLINDERS ON, EVEN IF THEY READ VERSE 10 THEY STILL WON'T BELIEVE IT. ONLY GOD CAN REMOVE THE BLINDERS.

SECOND DEATH = THE DEATH OF THE SOUL (REV. 20).

THE ONES THAT KNOW THE TRUTH WILL OVERCOME THE SECOND DEATH (DEATH OF THE SOUL).

THE OTHER ONES WILL LEARN IN THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN). EZEKIEL 44.

HOWEVER, THEY STILL HAVE TO BE TESTED AGAIN WHEN THE DEVIL IS RELEASED FOR A SHORT TIME (REV. 20). SOME WILL OVERCOME SOME WON'T.

Revelation 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos (RAISED TO A HIGH PLACE IN THE GREEK) write ; 'These things saith He Which hath the sharp sword with two edges;

Revelation 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast My name, and hast not denied My faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

THERE IS NO RECORD OF ANTIPAS BECAUSE IT HASN'T HAPENNED YET.

IN THIS CHURCH ONLY "ANTIPAS" WAS RIGHT IN GOD'S EYES. THE OTHER ONES WERE DECEIVED.

Revelation 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

BALAAM WAS A GOOD PROPHET BUT HE LOVED MONEY.

DON'T BEG FOR MONEY AND DO NOT PRACTICE IDOL WORSHIP IN YOUR CHURCH.

Revelation 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes (IDOL WORSHIPPERS AND HATERS OF GOD ; NO RECORD OF THEM BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT OUR TIME, OR NEAR FUTURE).

Revelation 2:16 Repent ; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth (GOD'S WORD).

Revelation 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the HIDDEN MANNA (HIDDEN TRUTH), and will give him a WHITE STONE (WHITE= PURITY), and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.'

STONE = COUNT. STRONG'S CONCORDANCE (GREEK DICTIONARY) # 5585, 5586.

TO BE ABLE TO KNOW SATAN'S CHILDREN AND WHERE THEY ARE.

ANOTHER STONE THAT HAS SEVEN PAIRS OF EYES (ZECH. 3:9), IS SYMBOLIC OF GOD'S ELECTION (THE STONE THAT SEES THE TRUTH).

Revelation 2:18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write: 'These things saith the Son of God, Who hath His eyes like unto a flame of fire, and His feet are like fine brass:

SYMBOLIC OF THE POWER AND STRENGTH OF HIS BODY.

Revelation 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first (HE IS IMPRESSED WITH THEIR ACTION BUT THEY LISTEN TO JEZEBEL).

Revelation 2:20 Notwithstanding, I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce My servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols.

JEZEBEL = CHASED.

THIS ONE IS A VERY RELIGIOUS CHURCH. HOWEVER, IT'S FALSE.

JEZEBEL CLAIMS TO BE A CHRISTIAN TEACHER BUT SHE IS A FAKE.

NOTE: THIS JEZEBEL IS NOT THE SAME AS THE JEZEBEL IN I KINGS 16:30.

GOD IS USING HER AS AN ANALOGY TO DESCRIBE THIS CHURCH.

Revelation 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

THIS RELIGIOUS CHURCH DOES NOT WANT TO REPENT.

Revelation 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into GREAT TRIBULATION, except they repent of their deeds.

THIS CHURCH WON'T BE A VIRGIN BRIDE TO CHRIST. GOD WILL CAUSE HER TO JUMP INTO SATAN'S BED SPIRITUALLY AND BE DECEIVED.

Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death (KILL SPIRITUALLY THE CONGREGATION BY BEING DECEIVED ; DEATH IS ANOTHER NAME FOR SATAN, HEBREWS 2:14); and all the churches shall know that I am He Which searcheth the reins (HE SEARCHES THE VERY INSIDE) and hearts (MINDS): and I WILL GIVE UNTO EVERYONE OF YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS (REWARDS COME FROM THE WORK YOU DO FOR HIM).

Revelation 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not THIS DOCTRINE (DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN IT), and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.

SATAN IS THE OTHER MAN (THE FIRST ONE IS CHRIST) PEOPLE WILL WORSHIP FROM THAT CHURCH.

IT'S THE GREAT APOSTASI OF THE CHURCH (MEANING, CHANGING FROM WORSHIPPING THE TRUE GOD, TO WORSHIPPING SATAN THINKING HE IS GOD).

Revelation 2:25 But that which ye have already, hold fast till I come.

AT LEAST YOU MAINTAIN THAT.

Revelation 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth My works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

Revelation 2:27 And he shall rule them (SHEPHERD THEM IN THE GREEK) with a rod of iron; and the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of My Father.

THE ONES WHO WILL FIGHT SPIRITUALLY FOR CHRIST (NO RAPTURE) UNTIL THE END HE WILL REWARD.

Revelation 2:28 And I will give him the morning star.

MORNING STAR = THE EARLY LIGHT.

CHURCHES ARE MENTIONED TILL THE END OF THIS BOOK (REV. 22:16).

Revelation 2:29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.'

AND AGAIN, NOT EVERYONE HAS EARS TO HEAR.

THE ONLY THING CHRIST LIKED FROM THESE CHURCHES WAS MORALITY. THEY KEPT THE MORAL ASPECT IN THEIR CHURCH.

IN THIS CHAPTER, HE ONLY FOUND ONE CHURCH HE WAS PLEASED WITH.

IN THE NEXT CHAPTER, THRE IS ONE MORE HE CONSIDERED PERFECT IN HIS EYES.

DON'TMISS OUR NEXT IN DEPTH STUDY.

GOD BLESS

THE BOOK OF REVELATION (1)

Man calls it "The Revelation of St. John the Divine". But the God-given title is in the first verse, "The Revelation of Jesus Christ", that is, the Unveiling, Revealing, and Presentation to earth and heaven of the Lord Jesus Christ as "KING of Kings and LORD of lords".

It was written in 96 A.D. , and the writer is John "the beloved disciple" while he was in exile on the island of Patmos, Greece.

Revelation 1:1 THE Revelation (APOKALUPSIS IN THE GREEK) of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him, to shew unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass ; and He sent and signified it by His angel unto His servant John,

1:2 Who bare record (SAW, HEARD, UNDERSTOOD) of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw (WITNESSED).

1:3 Blessed is HE THAT READETH, AND THEY THAT HEAR THE WORDS OF THIS PROPHECY, and keep those things which are written therein : for the time is at hand.

PROPHECY IS USED SEVEN TIMES IN THIS BOOK ; NUMBER # 7 MEANS SPIRITUAL COMPLITMENT IN BIBLICAL NUMERICS.

THIS BOOK REVEALS ALL THE EVENTS JUST BEFORE AND AFTER CHRIST RETURNS.

GOD WANTS US TO READ AND UNDERSTAND IT.

1:4 JOHN to the seven churches which are in Asia : Grace be unto you, and peace, from Him Which is, and Which was, and Which is to come ; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne ;

THOSE CHURCHES WERE IN A CIRCLE. HOWEVER, THEY ARE ONLY A TYPE; CHRIST USES THESE CHURCHES TO DESCRIBE THE CHURCHES OF TODAY.

1:5 And from Jesus Christ, Who is the faithful Witness, and the First Begotten of the dead (ONE WHO CONCORED DEATH), and the Prince (RULER) of the kings of the earth. Unto Him That loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood,

1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father ; to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever.

THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED YET.

HIS ELECT WILL BE PRIESTS IN THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN).

MAKE A NOTE OF REV. 5:10.

1:7 Behold, He cometh with clouds ; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him : and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen.

HE COMETH WITH CLOUDS = A FIGURE OF SPEECH. EVERYONE (ALL RACES), EVEN THE ONES THAT NAILED HIM TO THE CROSS, WILL SEE HIM COMING IN THE CLOUDS (NO RAPTURE, EVERYONE WILL SEE HIM).

THIS IS THE SECOND ADVENT, THE SEVENTH TRUMP.

1:8 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending," saith the LORD, "Which is, and Which was, and Which is to come, THE ALMIGHTY.

JESUS IS GOD IN THE FLESH.

ALPHA = # 1.

OMEGA = # 8, OR 800 (ACCORDING HOW IT IS UTILIZED IN BIBLICAL NUMERICS = A NEW BEGINNING).

1:9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion (PARTAKER) in tribulation, and the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

JOHN WAS EXILED IN THE ISLAND OF PATMOS.

1:10 I was in the Spirit on THE LORD'S DAY, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

THE LORD'S DAY IS THE LAST DAY OF THIS DISPENSATION (THE 7TH TRUMP).

FOLLOWING THE LORD'S DAY IS THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN, AFTER SATAN'S TRIBULATION).

MAKE A NOTE OF I THESS. 5:2.

1:11 Saying, "I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last : and what thou seest, write in a book (THIS BOOK), and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia ; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea."

AND AGAIN, THESE WERE ONLY TYPES.

HE WANTS THE PROPHECY OF THIS BOOK TO BE TAUGHT IN ALL THE CHURCHES OF TODAY (WE ARE CLOSER TO THE LORD'S DAY THAN THEY WERE).

1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks (THE SEVEN CHURCHES).

1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps (BREASTS) with a golden girdle.

1:14 His head and His hairs were white like wool, as white as snow ; and His eyes were as a flame of fire ;

1:15 And His feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace ; and His voice as the sound of many waters (ALL PEOPLE ; REV. 17:15).

SYMBOLIC OF THE PRESENCE OF GOD'S GLORY (REV. 4).

1:16 And He had in His right hand seven stars : and out of His mouth went a sharp twoedged sword : and His countenance (OPSIS IN THE GREEK = LOOKED LIKE) was as the sun shineth in his strength.

TWOEDGED SWORD = HIS MOUTH (HIS TRUTH) CUTS BOTH WAYS.

1:17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. And He laid His right hand upon me, saying unto me, "Fear not ; I am the First and the Last :

1:18 I am He That liveth, and was dead ; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen ; and have the keys of hell (THE GREEK TEXTS SAY, "DEATH AND OF HELL" = GRAVE IN THE GREEK, HADES) and of death.

I HAVE THE KEYS OF HELL AND DEATH = I AM THE ONE IN CONTROL (HE OPENS ALL LOCKS).

1:19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter ;

THE THINGS THAT BUILD UP TO THE COMING OF OUR LORD, AND THE THINGS THAT WILL COME AFTERWARDS.

1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in My right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. THE SEVEN STARS ARE THE ANGELS OF THE SEVEN CHURCHES : AND THE SEVEN CANDLESTICKS WHICH THOU SAWEST ARE THE SEVEN CHURCHES.
