As God's wrath is poured out in seven phases, you'll be reminded of the plagues poured out on Egypt when pharaoh refused to let God's people leave and go to the Promised Land. Water turns to blood, the people are stricken with sores, demonic spirits appear like frogs, enormous hail stones fall, all under the direction of God Almighty and his angels. Following the seventh bowl of God's wrath, we'll read a post-script that section that tells us more about the great city named “Babylon,” her relationship with the beast, and the nature of her sins against God.Revelation 16 - 1:11 .

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Revelation 11 John is given a measuring rod and told to measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there, but not the outer court, for it is given to the nations. God appoints two witnesses to prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth. They have power to bring plagues, shut the sky, and strike the earth. After their testimony ends, the beast from the abyss kills them, and their bodies lie in the great city for three and a half days. The world rejoices over their death, but God raises them to life, and they ascend to heaven. A great earthquake follows. The seventh trumpet sounds, and voices in heaven declare that the kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of Christ, and He shall reign forever. God's care for His people is clear in the vision of the measured temple, showing that He knows and protects those who worship Him. The two witnesses could symbolize faithful believers who speak God's truth in a hostile world. Their message brings both warning and hope, and their power comes directly from God. Even when they are struck down, God raises them to life, proving that His purposes cannot be stopped. This encourages us to remain bold in our witness, even when it comes at a cost. The seventh trumpet reveals that Christ now reigns as King. His kingdom has triumphed. We are called to trust in His victory and remain faithful, knowing that our testimony is never in vain. Glorious Father, we praise You for Your power, justice, and unfailing promises. You protect those who worship You, and You empower Your witnesses to speak truth in a dark world. Even when evil seems to win, You raise up Your people and display Your victory. Help us to be faithful, bold, and unafraid to share Your message, no matter the cost. Strengthen our hearts with the hope that Your kingdom reigns now and forever. Let our lives reflect Your glory, and our voices proclaim Your truth. May we trust Your plan and stand firm in our calling as Your servants. Thought Questions: God measures His temple and His people, keeping them separate from the world. How does that imagery give you confidence and peace? The two witnesses could be prophets or represent God's people. How does their resurrection after death invigorate your trust in the Lord? How do you express daily gratitude knowing that the kingdom of the world belongs to our Lord and His Christ, who reign forever and ever?

Revelation is full of imagery and symbolism that continues to spark discussion and debate among believers, but the overall impression that we should get from these prophecies is that the end is under God's full control; in his sovereignty and power He will execute his just wrath upon those who oppose Him, and those who trust Him are secured eternally, though not without temporary hardship. The beast will oppose God's witnesses and deceive many. The dragon, Satan, will fight for glory and wage war against God's people. Even so, neither the beast, nor the dragon, nor their followers will escape God's justice and wrath. God's faithful ones will be avenged and delivered.Revelation 11 - 1:09 . Revelation 12 - 5:19 .

On this final episode in the Revelation series, Matt shows listeners how the Apocalypse comes to a close and, at the same time, summon its readers back to its pages. Matt also highlights how John's personal experience with the angel in vv. 8-9 captures the entire message of Revelation as a whole. Other questions are addressed, such as: what is meant by "soon" in the phrase "the things that must soon take place" (NIV) in v. 6? What's the significance of the reappearance of the Tree of Life in v. 14? +++Support The Bible (Unmuted) via Patreon: patreon.com/TheBibleUnmutedMatthew's blog: matthewhalsted.substack.comDon't forget to subscribe to The Bible (Unmuted)!

Your Hope-Filled Perspective with Dr. Michelle Bengtson podcast
Episode Summary: Christians often think theology is only for scholars or the spiritually elite. But this simply isn’t true. While theology is, in one sense, an academic discipline, it can also be understood as the art of knowing our creator. God invites us to know him, as we are fully known by him. Theology goes beyond the study of the character of God, and into the art of knowing the One who already knows and intimately loves His believers. Flash Theology leads readers through thirty-one bite-size truths, highlighting key aspects of who God is and what that means for the reader. Theology is important for everyone, but if it’s too dense, it can be hard to digest. Today we’re going to talk about biblical literacy and why it’s important to learn who God is. Quotables from the episode: We all carry a theological bias. So, we all enter into a variety of conversations and our own circumstances within our life, carrying a bias towards who we think God is. And that is based on a whole bunch of different things, how we are raised, different things you hear over time, the media you consume, the church you attend, all these different facets of how we view God and the way we absorb information can help us view God biblically or not biblically at all. I believe the Westernized church and social media has created a self-help gospel that is void of God’s truth. That word is associated, as you already mentioned, is associated with academics and scholars. So, there is kind of hefty price tag to it, but theology is simply the study of God. So, then if you open up the Bible, you are studying the Christian God. So, everybody that opens up the Bible is a “theologian.” Now of course there are the academic theologians but I like to say we're all theologians and we should take ownership of that because that helps us realize it is a worthy pursuit to understand God and his text. We miss out on so much because we're leaving it to those that are called to lead us, right? We're saying, okay, which is good. We should trust our leaders, but we should also question if something actually biblically accurate? I love if I go to teach the Bible somewhere. I love when people do their digging afterwards and make sure that I actually taught the text properly. We should have a hunger and an understanding to pursue a depth of who God is, and that's not always going to be accurate in the different areas of consumption, like those 20 -second reels on social media that we come across. Through Genesis to Revelation, there's a line of scripture that's happening, and it is revealing Christ all throughout scripture, who Christ is, is being revealed. God knows us already, right? So it's really this question of do we embrace the fact that he fully knows us? Do we understand the depth of his love? And I can only imagine that it's a consistently, we're walking out understanding the depths of his love until we're face to face with Jesus. **So when we can embrace the truth that we are fully known by a God who loves us, by a God that is for us, by a God that knows the beginning from the end, it creates this stabilizing truth in our life that will carry us when our circumstances are out of control, when the world feels like it's mass chaos, when something comes at us, when we're not prepared, like there is a stabilizing truth that God is good, He is sovereign, He is my Savior (for those that declare Christ as their Lord and Savior.) And that stabilizing truth in itself is something that will help you continue to move forward until we are again face to face with Jesus. God has always fully known us. And when we can really start to accept that and receive that, I think that's when we really start to live in the abundant life that Jesus came to give. Who else loves us despite knowing our every fault? Nobody but God. I think that's really the stepping stone to walk into that abundant life that Jesus came to give. One of the biggest wrestling matches I’ve seen in ministry is people understanding God as Father. Sometimes we have to have this wrestling match with the Holy Spirit to be able to fully embrace the fullness of what that means to understand God as Father. So often our view of God as Father is directly impacted by our relationship with the parental figures that we're in our life. And the problem with that is that we're relating to a perfect God using a flawed metric. But the thing that has been most helpful in working with patients is helping them explore the fact that even if they were abandoned by their earthly father or their earthly father was not a kind person, God as father specifically chose us, made the loving choice that he wanted us to be a child. I remember I was driving around one day in Hollywood and it's just, it's such a fun city because almost everyone there is like dreamers. They moved to Hollywood because they have a big dream to pursue. So I'm driving around listening to worship music. Just I'm in love with the city and I felt this deep conviction from God where he was like, “you've been making this calling, you've been making this all about yourself.” And it was that like gut punch of like, oh gosh, I better pay attention. And what I felt him saying in my spirit was, "You've been making this all about you. This really has nothing to do with you. Do you trust that I can fill the spaces between you and this dream that I've called you to pursue?" So of course, I ugly cried, I repented. I said, "I'm so sorry, God." And I've tried to be faithful with what he's asked me to do. The enemy makes it all about us, because he doesn't want it to be all about God. I wonder how many people are listening today, who have felt the unction of God calling them into something and self-doubt has interfered. Friends, if that is you, if God is calling you into something, he's going to equip you. He's going to walk with you. He's going to train you. He's going to bring along mentors. He's going to provide the finances. Listen to Jenny's story. It's not all about you. It's about him. Dig in and also invite the Holy Spirit into your reading process because like I said, we can we can read and or listen to the text, but it's one thing to say, “Holy Spirit make this come alive and show me how to apply this to my life as well.” I love that last recommendation because when Jesus left, he said, “I'm going to send one to remind you of all truth.” He was talking about the Holy Spirit, but the Holy Spirit can't remind us of truth that we haven't already taken in. So, when you're reading the word, do just as Jenny says and invite the Holy Spirit to teach you truth. And those words are going to come alive off the page. When we understand the Gospel and who triune God really is, the end result is knowing and enjoying God more! Theology and getting to know God doesn’t have to be intimating or boring! Start where you are and learn to wrestle with God’s word. Don’t just read it, but make time to study it. It’s life-changing! Scripture References: Numbers 23:19 ESV God is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. Has he said, and will he not do it? Or has he spoken, and will he not fulfill it? Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

In this episode I talk with Dr. Caleb T. Friedeman about his groundbreaking new book, Gospel Birth Narratives and Historiography: Reopening a Closed Case (Baylor University Press). For centuries, scholars have debated whether the birth narratives of Jesus in Matthew and Luke were intended as history or legend. Many modern studies dismiss them as legendary embellishments.Dr. Friedeman challenges this skepticism by showing that, in ancient biographies, birth narratives were typically written with historiographic intent. His research demonstrates that the Gospel birth narratives fit this pattern, meaning they were meant to be understood historically—not as myth.We discuss:Why modern scholarship often sidelines Jesus' birth narrativesHow ancient biographers like Plutarch and Suetonius treated birth storiesWhat this means for reading Matthew 1–2 and Luke 1–2 todayImplications for historical Jesus studies and Christian faithThis conversation will deepen your appreciation for the Gospels and their historical reliability.Youtube - https://youtu.be/3j6SQLa_zCMAudio - https://andymilleriii.com/media/podcastApple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/more-to-the-story-with-dr-andy-miller/id1569988895?uo=4Dr. Caleb T.

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Revelation 10 A mighty angel comes down from heaven, clothed with a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, a face like the sun, and feet like pillars of fire. He holds a small scroll that is open in his hand. As he stands with one foot on the sea and one on the land, he cries out with a loud voice like a lion. Seven thunders respond, but John is told not to write what they say. The angel raises his hand to heaven and swears by the eternal Creator that there will be no more delay. The mystery of God will be fulfilled when the seventh angel sounds his trumpet. John is then told to eat the scroll. It tastes sweet in his mouth but turns bitter in his stomach. God's plans have always been certain, and His timing was perfect in bringing past events to completion. The angel declared that there would be no more delay, and the mystery of God was finished just as He had promised. The fulfillment of these events shows that God keeps His word and accomplishes His purposes. When John ate the scroll, it was sweet in the mouth but bitter in the stomach, revealing the joy and sorrow that often come with receiving God's truth. Although these judgments have already happened, the message remains: God's response to unrighteousness is protection for the innocent but judgment upon the world. We must preach Jesus to bring people to Him before it is too late. All-knowing God, we praise You for Your perfect wisdom and faithful fulfillment of Your promises. As You revealed the mystery of Your plan, we are reminded that nothing escapes Your control. Like John, help us receive Your word with open hearts, even when it brings both joy and sorrow. Give us courage to proclaim Your truth boldly, trusting that You are just and good. May we live with reverence, knowing Your purposes have been fulfilled and Your kingdom continues to persist. Strengthen our faith and keep us grounded in Your word, so that we may serve You with confidence and peace. Thought Questions: Revelation often mentions strong angels carrying out God's avenging will. What do you believe about the presence of angels today? God's justice is a comfort to His people. But how is God's judgment both bitter and sweet? How does that motivate you evangelistically? Do you believe God created the heavens and the earth, with the right and power to sustain or destroy them? How does that impact you?

In our last episode, Jesus appeared to the apostle John with instructions for seven churches. After this, John sees God seated on His throne, attended by four living creatures and 24 elders in white robes. One like a slaughtered lamb appears in the midst of the throne to open a scroll that has seven seals. In today's episode, the lamb begins to open those seals. The first four seals release riders on horses, each with a different supernatural task. The fifth seal prompts the souls of those slain for their faithfulness to cry for justice. The sixth seal induces chaotic natural catastrophes and reveals those coming out of the great tribulation. Finally, the seventh seal prompts seven angels with trumpets.Revelation 6 - 1:14 .

NAHUM 1:1-3:19 | REVELATION 8:1-13 | PSALM 136:1-26 | PROVERBS 30:7-9
In this episode, I speak with Fr. Deacon Ananias about Orthodox epistemology and the claim that true knowledge is not grounded in autonomous reason but in God's self-revelation. Contrasting Athens and Jerusalem, this conversation explores why Orthodoxy understands truth not as an idea, but as a Person: Jesus Christ. We discuss revelation as theophany, the limits of philosophy, the apophatic tradition, and how knowledge in the Church is personal, communal, and transformative, not merely intellectual. Topics include: - East vs. West on knowledge and reason - Revelation as encounter, not information - Apophatic knowing and humility - Philosophy: rejected, redeemed, or baptized? - Why truth is known in communion For more from Fr Deacon Ananias, go here: https://www.patristicfaith.com ...and here: https://www.youtube.com/@esorem Sponsors: Fox n Sons Coffee: https://www.foxnsons.com Code: BUCK15 Perfect Spiral Capital: https://PerfectSpiralCapital.com/counterflow Podsworth App: https://podsworth.com Code: BUCK50 for HALF off your first order!

Would you pray for my housing situation? Why is the resurrection so central to Christianity? What does it mean for us personally? What are your thoughts on "hypergrace"? Why is Jesus called the "firstborn of the dead" in Revelation 1:5?
Ezekiel 33-35; Psalm 138:1-12, Proverbs 29:19-23; Revelation 8
In this in-depth Bible teaching, we explore two critical Hebraisms that unlock major New Testament passages: the Key of the House of David (Isaiah 22) and "All shall be taught by God" (Isaiah 54). First, we examine the Old Testament background of the Key of David and how it reveals delegated royal authority under the king. This foundation allows us to correctly understand Jesus' words to the Church of Philadelphia in Revelation 3 and His absolute authority to open and shut doors of access, ministry, and the Kingdom itself. Next, we tackle Isaiah 54:13 and its direct quotation by Jesus in John 6. By understanding Jewish interpretive methods (PaRDeS), we expose how this passage is often misused to support Calvinistic theology. When read in its proper Jewish and prophetic context, Jesus is not teaching mystical election, but showing that God draws people through Scripture itself. Those who hear and learn from the Father through the Word come to Christ by faith. This study dismantles common misunderstandings about divine drawing, salvation, and election, and reaffirms the biblical truth of salvation by faith alone in Christ alone.

Homeland Security quoted a line from Thomas Paine's "American Crisis". This post from DHS reminded me that it is almost the 249th anniversary of George Washington crossing the Delaware. We should understand Revelation 6, which Paine referenced in his essay and which was read to the men in Washington's Army. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The parade goes on! Our pilgrim, Dante, turns back from Virgil's amazement and finds more of the parade coming toward him . . . at least, he does so after he's reprimanded by the lady who stands across Lethe.In this passage, the poet's craft heightens to reveal gorgeous poetry that comes from the apocalyptic tradition but far exceeds its beauty with both the Easter eggs Dante puts in the text and the ways the poetry itself enhances the wonder of the parade at hand.Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as we work through our second passage on the parade of revelation in the Garden of Eden at the top of Mount Purgatory.Here are the segments for this episode of WALKING WITH DANTE:[01:19] My English translation of PURGATORIO, Canto XXIX, lines 58 - 87.

Wednesday December 17, 2025III Week of AdventToday's Advent Readings:Zechariah 3:1–10; Revelation 4:1–8; Matthew 24:45–51In Zechariah 3:1–10, we see a powerful picture of grace. Joshua the high priest stands accused, clothed in filthy garments, yet the Lord rebukes the accuser and clothes him in clean robes. Advent reminds us that God does not leave us in our guilt—He removes it and restores us, promising a future of peace and righteousness.In Revelation 4:1–8, John is invited into the throne room of heaven. There, all creation revolves around the holiness of God, who is continually worshiped as the One who was, and is, and is to come. Advent lifts our eyes from earthly distractions to the reality that God reigns now.In Matthew 24:45–51, Jesus calls His followers to faithful stewardship while they wait. The question isn't *when* the Master will return, but *how* we will live until He does. Advent shapes us into servants who are alert, obedient, and faithful.Together, these passages call us to live clothed in grace, anchored in worship, and committed to faithfulness as we await the return of our King.He has cleansed us. He reigns in glory. He is coming again.#Advent #AdventDevotional #PrepareHimRoom #ComeLordJesus #BiblePodcast #GraceAndRedemption #GodReigns #FaithfulServant #ClothedInGrace #HolyHolyHoly
We invite you to begin this holiday season with some child-like wonder through the magic of Christmas stories. We will not only look at the birth accounts of the Savior, but at the whole of our story; from even before Genesis through to Revelation. And we will do so spring boarding off the famous story written in 1843 by Charles Dickens called, A Christmas Carol. A Christmas Carol begins with a death and forces the main character, Ebenezer Scrooge, to evaluate his life. As a part of this journey, Scrooge is given an odd gift; he's able to explore his past, present, and future. He's able to remember what happened to him as a child and how it shaped him. Then he gets to see his present with a view of who he has become; a crotchety old man who cares about little else than making a profit. Along the way, however, it seems that this crotchety old man wants to be something more, do something more, but what? How? Finally, Scrooge gets the opportunity to see what his future will be should he continue down his current life path. When he wakes up from this dream, he is convinced; he must change. He chooses to be different. You might even say, he repents and becomes a new creation, one who celebrates the joy of Christmas by taking care of others. In a similar fashion, we will look at the thread of the Christ story, and our story, by looking all the way back to Christmas Past, before the foundations of the world. Then, we will look to Christmas Present, exploring where the choices of His creation led the God of creation. Then, should we choose to believe in this magical and wonder-filled story of Christmas, we can then peak into our Christmas future, a future secured by what God has done for us. There, we will see what this God of love and grace has in store for us all. May the telling and reimagining of this story, the Christmas story, bring much needed light into every corner of our world today. I look forward to the journey, and to spending Christmas…together!

Episode Summary: Christmas isn't just a cozy story; it's the moment the King of Kings invaded history. Christmas marks the turning point of history where the King claims His throne. From Isaiah 9 to Revelation 19, we trace the arrival of the Lamb who was slain and the rise of the Lion of Judah who reigns. We explore how biblical hope is active, not passive, calling Christians to occupy till He comes. We're called to live courageously and bless this world as far as the curse is found. This is a vision of Christmas that practically fuels cultural renewal, faithfulness, justice, beauty, and shalom in everyday places.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)?
