THINGS WHICH MUST SOON TAKE PLACE

PROCLAMATION

“The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants what must soon take place.  He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John, who testifies to everything he saw …”  Revelation 1:1-2 (NIV)

 

EXPLANATION

These are the words of the prophecy which was revealed to, and written by, the Apostle John, under the influence of The Holy Spirit of God.  In this, the last Bible Book of The New Testament, John records the revelation of the things which are to come according to the vision that he saw in his old age when he was taken up in the spirit while he was on the island of Patmos. (Revelation 1:9-10)  John was told by Christ to write down the things were revealed to him in the vision. (Revelation 1:19)

 

APPLICATION

The Bible Book of Revelation is a very special Book.  This New Testament Bible Book of prophecy is so special that everyone who reads it aloud will be blessed. (Revelation 1:3)  There is also a blessing in store for those who hear the words of this prophecy and take them to heart. (Revelation 1:3)  The Book was addressed to the church, specifically the seven churches in the province of Asia. (Revelation 1:4)  Christ is coming back again, and when He does every eye will see Him. (Revelation 1:7)  When He left this earth, He ascended to heaven on a cloud. (Acts 1:9)  When He returns, He will come back on a cloud as it was predicted. (Daniel 7:13-14, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, and Revelation 1:7)  His physical appearance will be a surprise to a lot of people.  The hair on His head will be like wool, curly, and white as snow.  His skin will look like fine brass, bronze in color as if burned. (Revelation 1:14-15)  Read The Bible Book of Revelation and pray for understanding.  Take this to heart because the end of time is near.
