Revelation is a fascinating book, to say the least and it contains some pretty amazing prophecies about our future. The Bible carries a one hundred percent accuracy rating when it comes to prophecy, so, logic tells us that everything in the Book of Revelation will indeed come to pass.

We are quickly approaching the beginning of the end. And it's not just the Christian saying so. Today on Growing in the word, pastor Jim Jarrett will consider these life and death issues in some detail. Revelation chapter six describes a horrific time. Believe it or not these days are coming. It would be wise to prepare and to prepare others for them.

We're in the middle of a special message from pastor Jim centered around being thankful. Psalm 100 os the place to be as we look at the goodness of God. As we look around the world today, we see storms, famine, war, terrorism, and bad people prospering. As we see this, it would be easy for us to scratch our head in confusion, and wonder why. Well, as the Psalmist will relate today - God is in control. Will you let Him be in control of your life?

Today we'll bring you a study in Psalm 100. This beautiful Psalm express love for God, and at the same time, reverence and thankfulness for God's great power.

The facts surrounding the tribulation, the antichrist and Armageddon are frightening to behold. However, as believers, we're not going to have to suffer the consequences. Exactly who the antichrist will be and from where he will emerge has been debated for centuries. Today on Growing in the Word, we'll bring you the conclusion of a message Pastor Jim began last time, based on the first four verses of Revelation chapter six.

In Revelation chapter six we see the arrival of the so-called four horsemen of the Apocalypse. The first two will bring war, the third will bring famine and the fourth will bring widespread death and destruction. Well the good news for believers in Jesus Christ is that we won't be around to experience these terrible occurrences.

The Bible paints an incredible picture of what it will be like! And with that in mind it would be a huge disappointment to not have our loved ones there, as well. As we have heard pastor Jim Jarrett say many times, we need to share the Good News with them so that they, too, can enjoy fellowship with God.

In Revelation chapter five, we continue our study of the future. With so many false prophets claiming to know the future, isn't it great to know that we have the inerrant, infallible, and completely reliable Word of God as our source for correct information?

Today we continue our verse by verse study of the book of Revelation with a stop in chapter five. Do you ever stop to imagine what Heaven will be like? Everybody has, and the concepts are as varied as the number of people. One very observant person said that "almost everybody is in favor of going to Heaven, but too many people are hoping they'll live long enough to see an easing of the entrance requirements!"

Clearing up the mysteries of this mysterious book is our goal, and we're currently looking at chapter five. We're beginning to get a clear picture of what awaits us in Heaven, and what happens there. We've all wondered that at one time or another, and we'll find out today that the routine in Heaven will be anything but routine!
