Something to Think About If you have come this far, you are already aware that this book of Revelation presents a unique picture of Jesus Christ.
He is much more than a mere human being. He is much more than a good person who was executed two thousand years ago by wicked hands. Jesus Christ arose from the dead, ascended to heaven, and now sits at the right hand of the throne of God the Father.
The picture we have in Revelation is of a Person with tremendous power and control over all that takes place in heaven and on earth. He is the One Who will come back to this earth and set up a kingdom that shall never end-perfect in every way and filled with every conceivable blessing that a loving God would provide for the creatures He made.
Where do you stand in all of this?
Does it seem too incredible?
How close or far away are you from allegiance and commitment to Jesus Christ?
What do you really understand the Bible to be saying about Him?
Do you understand that He deserves your worship and praise?
Have you placed your complete faith and confidence in him as your Lord and only Savior from sin?
Time is running out. As you continue to read, please evaluate carefully your commitment to Him. Your eternal destiny depends on it.

Jesus is I AM WHO I AM.
When we think of Jesus, we still picture him as Jesus who is God in the form of humanity. In REVELATION, a noticeable change has taken place from what the four gospels describe when they speak of Jesus Christ.
This is a picture of what He is like now that He has risen from the dead. He is not pictured in the robe of humanity, but in the garments of royalty and deity. He is no longer the humble, suffering Servant, willing to endure the agony and death of a Roman cross - He is now the King of kings and Lord of lords! He has risen from the dead, and the glory He had before He came into the world in a manger in Bethlehem is now brilliantly displayed. It is a picture of glory and greatness.
When Jesus came into the world in the form of a baby, His true glory was hidden in the shape of humanity. While on the earth, people had only a small glimpse of His glory through His ministry. John is seeing the clothing of humanity unveiled here and it is too much for him to physically handle.
There are seven things we can learn about Jesus in this vision of glory and greatness.
1. His exalted position
2. His eternal humanity
3. His unique appearance
4. His majesty
5. His purity
6. His authority
7. His centrality Majesty, purity, authority, and centrality - what a glorious picture of Jesus Christ, and how wonderfully unique from what we learn about Him in the four Gospels.
The glory He had before He came into the world, that glory which He lovingly and willingly set aside so that He might know human life by personal experience and identify with us in our need, has been fully restored. He stands as our King of kings and Lord of lords.
This is the JESUS we will see coming again on the clouds of the heavens. This time, He will not come as a humble servant. He will come with authority, unveiled.

WHAT IF YOU KNEW HOW MUCH TIME YOU HAD LEFT ON THIS EARTH...
What if you knew that you had 15 years left on this earth to live?
What would you do with your time?
What would you do differently? How would you prepare your family, friends, and new people that you meet?
What if you knew that after that 15 years an event would take place that would impact everyone you know in life in a negative way if they did not accept Jesus?
What would you tell them? How would you show them to prepare them for what is coming?
This is exactly what happened to King Hezekiah in 2 Kings 20. King Hezekiah was someone that faithfully followed God as leader of Israel. The only thing he did NOT do was tear down the high places set up to worship another god other than the One True God. He didn't worship there, but he allowed it to stay. He got really sick with a boil and the prophet Isaiah was sent to give him the message that he would not survive this illness and that he would die. After Isaiah left, King Hezekiah got up and facing the wall prayed, "God, you know that I have been faithful... please spare me." God sent Isaiah back to the King and told him that he would now recover and God was giving him 15 more years to live.
Then Hezekiah did something interesting. He invited a contingent of officials from Babylon to come and visit. He showed them everything: the treasury, the temple gold and silver, and his entire palace. He was quite proud. When Isaiah asked him who was there and what they wanted, Hezekiah told him. Isaiah's reply was that after King Hezekiah dies, Babylon will invade Israel, steal all of what Hezekiah showed them, and even capture the King's sons, taking them into exile and making them eunuchs. Hezekiah's response was, "This is great news." In King Hezekiah's mind, he thought, "at least it won't happen in my lifetime."
He had 15 years to prepare Israel. But he didn't do it. Israel was captured, many were killed, Israel was left in ruins, and Hezekiah's sons were exiled and made eunuchs.
If you had 15 years and you knew that the Tribulation was coming...
How would you prepare those in your life? Your family, friends, and people that you meet? Hopefully, you won't do what Hezekiah did and leave the problems coming to the next generation. Hopefully, we spend time preparing those in our lives for what is coming... Hopefully, we can lead them to Jesus.

The Second Coming of Jesus Christ
What does this mean?
When will this happen?
Christians have been talking about this for centuries! Let's take a deeper look into this... "Look! He comes with the clouds of heaven. and everyone will see him -- even those who pierced him. And all the nations of the world will mourn for him. Yes! Amen!" Revelation 1:7
So much in that one verse! We see great anticipation for the event. We see there is significance regarding the clouds. Clouds are some of the most fascinating things to watch. They are even more fascinating to learn about. Looking back to Revelation 1:4-6, we understand that Jesus has a plan, a plan of redemption. "All glory to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us." v. 5b. Notice the use of the present tense and past tense.
Jesus "LOVES" us and has "FREED" us from our sins. "For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God." 1 Peter 1:18-19.
We are FREED from our sin, and Jesus (present tense) LOVES us. Not only that, but he has a purpose for all Believers! We can see it clearly in 1 Peter 2:9, "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light!" Then, we are to PRAISE God for ALL Eternity!
One of the culminating events that we see distinguishing the time is the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. What is the significance of clouds? Tune in today to find out - as well as Earth News, Wars and Rumors of Wars, News Leading Up to the Tribulation, and Things that Make You Go Hmmmm...

THE SEVEN SPIRITS
Place, Plan, Purpose, Praise “I, John, am writing this to the seven churches in Asia province: All the best to you from the God Who Is, the God Who Was, and the God about to arrive, and from the seven spirits assembled before His throne, and from Jesus Christ—Loyal witness, firstborn from the dead, Ruler of all earthly kings. Glory and strength to Christ, who loves us, who blood-washed our sins from our lives, who made us a Kingdom, Priests for his Father, forever—and yes, he’s on his way! Riding the clouds, he’ll be seen by every eye, those who mocked and killed him will see him, People from all nations and all times will tear their clothes in lament. Oh, Yes. [AMEN] The Master declares, “I’m A to Z. I’m the God Who Is, the God Who Was, and the God about to arrive. I’m the Sovereign-Strong.” REVELATION 1:4-7
Remember, the book of Revelation is “the revelation of Jesus Christ. Jesus had three titles given to Him in these verses above, and there are four very distinct things to remember about this revelation: Jesus’s Place of Authority Jesus’s Plan of Redemption Jesus’s Purpose for the Believer Jesus’s Praise for All Eternity Jesus IS coming again. There IS an end to this age coming.
The question IS… Are you ready? We want you to be ready. Every week we offer a chance for you to accept Who Jesus is, what Jesus desires for you, how you can fulfill your purpose, and then praise Him for what He has done in your life.
Don’t hesitate. Today is the day.
