Revelation's allusion to Jesus riding on the clouds has a long history back into ancient times. In this episode we follow the Bible's stream of thought, leaving us with a very powerful image—all while Olivia continues to interrupt us by singing "Days of Elijah."

Today we often act as though priests and pastors are the ones who need to usher us into sacred space to meet with God, but the Bible calls Christians a "royal priesthood." That's a huge statement, given that priests in the Bible were meditators between God and humanity. In this episode we give a condensed look at the huge topic of priesthood. This takes us into the stories of Adam and Eve, Moses and Aaron, Melchizedek, and ultimately Jesus and us.

In Revelation 1:5, John pulls from Psalm 89 to bestow three different titles upon Jesus. In the third title, John refers to Jesus as, "the ruler of the kings of earth." But the kings of this earth don't really seem to be operating as though they're under Jesus' rulership. So what does John mean when he says this and how does Revelation and the rest of the Bible picture the relationship between Jesus and politics? We try to bring some clarity to this mess of a topic in today's episode of JXN Cloud. Join the conversation on our Discord: www.jxncloud.com/discord

In Revelation 1:5, John pulls from Psalm 89 to bestow three different titles upon Jesus. The second title of, "the firstborn of the dead," sounds a bit trippy the first time you hear it. What is John communicating in this statement? Weren't there others in the Bible raised back to life before Jesus was? Join the conversation on our Discord channel! www.jxncloud.com/discord
