A Special ReAir of Episode 474, originally aired on June 5, 2025. 

In this episode of Luke 21, Steve Wood continues the Beginner’s Survey of the Book of Revelation, unlocking one of the greatest keys to understanding its prophetic vision: the Old Testament book of Ezekiel.

Did you know Revelation references the Old Testament more than any other New Testament book? Today, you’ll discover how St. John doesn’t just quote the prophets—he internalizes them. Like Ezekiel, John is given a scroll to eat (Rev 10), symbolizing his deep assimilation of God’s Word. What emerges is a powerful New Covenant prophecy, uniquely Christian and yet deeply rooted in the ancient prophetic tradition.

Steve explores how Revelation 4–22 mirrors the structure and themes of Ezekiel, revealing that the Book of Revelation is, in many ways, a Spirit-led rewriting of Ezekiel’s vision—now applied to the Church. If you’ve ever found Revelation confusing or overwhelming, this fresh and faithful perspective will transform how you read it.

In this eye-opening episode of Luke21, host Steve Wood tackles a question many parents, priests, teachers, and youth leaders urgently need to address: Why does heaven seem boring to so many people—and what does the Bible actually say about eternity with Christ?

The Bible doesn’t promise a boring, cloud-filled afterlife, but a new heaven and a new earth where resurrected believers live embodied, meaningful lives with Christ forever.

Drawing from Revelation, Isaiah, Genesis, and Luke, this episode reveals a restored world with no death or suffering, reunited families, real places, real work, and even animals living in peace. Eternity with Christ will be vibrant, purposeful, and anything but boring.

Preparing for Disclosure Day examines the growing interest in UFOs, UAPs, government disclosures, and the film Disclosure Day. As these topics move into mainstream conversation, many Christians are asking important questions about spiritual deception, biblical prophecy, and the nature of non-human intelligences.

In Episode 523 of Luke21, Steve Wood explores these topics through the lens of Scripture, drawing connections between Genesis 6, the days of Noah, Revelation 9 and 20, and 2 Thessalonians 2.

If you’re looking to dig deeper into the subjects discussed in this episode, you’ll find the referenced resources at www.Luke21.com or www.BibleforCatholics.com.

How can misreading biblical prophecy lead to dangerous real-world consequences? In this episode, Steve Wood explains how ignoring three key verses in Revelation 20:7–9 distorts the prophecy of Gog and Magog and has even been used to justify modern nuclear war.

You’ll learn why Ezekiel 38 is symbolic—not a prediction about Russia or Iran—and how biblical numerology (especially the number seven) reveals a universal rebellion against God, not a geopolitical blueprint. Scripture shows that God Himself ends this final conflict—no human warfare required.

A must-listen for anyone seeking a clear, biblical understanding of end-times prophecy, Gog and Magog, and Revelation.
