Two Chapters 15 & 16

John uses a combination of Daniel 7 and Psalm 110:1The Son of Man “I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a Son of Man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And came near before Him. And to Him was given dominion, Glory, and a kingdom, That all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue Might serve Him. His  dominion is an everlasting  dominion Which will not be taken away; And His kingdom is one Which will not be destroyed. Daniel 7:13-14Yahweh says to my Lord: “Sit at My right hand Until I put Your enemies as a footstool for Your feet.” Psalm 110:1 (most quoted OT verse in NT)

Eternal Gospel, Day of the Lord, Wine of Wrath

And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, that they be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead,  and that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.  Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of man; and his number is 666. Revelation 13:16-18

The Beast! What or Who is it?

Revelation 12 Final Conclusion. We look at this chapter in a different way.

Revelation 12:1-6 Conclusion.

Get out your telescopes! We're going into hyperdrive! Revelation 12:1-6 Part I

3 1/2 Years Two Witnesses

Who is God's Chosen People? Israel? What about Christians?

What or Who did Jephthah sacrifice?

Judges 11:29–32  29 Now the Spirit of Yahweh came upon Jephthah, so that he passed through Gilead and Manasseh; then he passed through Mizpah of Gilead, and from Mizpah of Gilead he went on to the sons of Ammon. 30 Then Jephthah made a vow to Yahweh and said, “If You will indeed give the sons of Ammon into my hand, 31 then it shall be that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, it shall be Yahweh's, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.” 32 So Jephthah crossed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and Yahweh gave them into his hand.

The Author: Father Richard Rohr (Franciscan Friar). Franciscans are a religious order within the Catholic Church.

In this episode I share my testimony/story.

This episode is a sermon I was able to deliver earlier this year. Colossians 1:15-23.

We cover the entire 6th trumpet and jump to the last (7th) trumpet. Revelation 9:3-5, 7-11; 11:15-19

Revelation 9 Trumpet Five. Who is Abaddon/Apollyon? Refresher on the bottomless pit (Abyss). What are Demons? Believe it or not, we discuss Greek Mythology.

Revelation 8:6-13 describe the first four trumpets. Watch for the similarities between these and the plagues of Egypt found in the book of Exodus. Remember that the plagues were directed to the Egyptian gods. A “third” is used in Zechariah but not in the same way as its use in Revelation. The star is called “Wormwood”. This star strikes a third of the water which because “wormwood” leading to the death of those who drink it.

We discuss Revelation 8:1-5 The Lamb opens the 7th (final) Seal on the Scroll. The scroll could not be opened until all the seals were broken. Silence in Heaven (several interpretations) Who are the 7 Angels that Stand before God? Not the 7 angels of the 7 churches. Why? Prayer as incense in the OT is prayer accepted by God Revelation 8:3-5 is somewhat modeled after Ezekiel 10:1-7.

Rev. 7 Who are the 144,000? How do we understand the Great Tribulation? God's people are to be marked and set apart from the destruction of God's wrath. What does John Hear then See? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

John's use of the Old Testament in the book of Revelation. In this episode we look at chapter 1 verse 4a and 8. John uses bad grammar on purpose to point his readers back to the OT.
