Pastor Ray Bentley with a look at the final battle foretold in revelation. The last battle is between Jesus Christ and the Antichrist. Once the temple is rebuilt, the Antichrist walks into the temple and says, I am God and Jesus Christ in heaven, who says, no, you're not. I am the Messiah, and the battle is on. And three and a half years later, Jesus comes and the breath of his mouth like a sword, and the kingdom comes spread.

Today, pastor Ray Bentley explains why the rebuilding of the temple plays a part in the events of the End Times. When Solomon built the temple dedicated to God, God came and visited it, and his glory was manifest at that temple. That's why Jerusalem is the epicenter of the world. It is the city where the Messiah was crucified, where he was buried, and where he rose from the dead.

Pastor Ray Bentley takes us to revelation and the turbulent times coming to planet Earth. During this time, the seven years of tribulation. Not only are judgments going to come, but God says, I'm going to do it in a rapid fire way and the judgments will accelerate. Starting now to the end of revelation. It covers the last three and a half years, and that's called the Great Tribulation spread.

Pastor Ray Bentley on how the issues of life are tied to the title deed of the Earth. One of the mysteries is why has God allowed evil so long? There's so much suffering, so much pain, so much death. And when will he finally end it? That's what in the middle of the tribulation, Jesus was had stretches from the glory of the throne in heaven.

Pastor Ray Bentley introduces today's study here on Maranatha Radio. Heaven is coming to the Earth. Hence the title of the message Heaven and Earth collide. Long ago, we rejected God and he sent His Son to live and show us the way, the truth, and the life, and to die and resurrect and to ascend. But there's coming a day when heaven and earth will come back together and collide at the second coming of Christ.

Pastor Ray Bentley on the location of an event of the end Times Iraq. Wow. This is where the Garden of Eden was, kind of there. And dabble and Babylon. And now these four angels are unleashed. And we read. Now the number of the army of the horsemen was 200 million. The question is this army physical or is it a spiritual army?

Pastor Ray Bentley with encouragement for last days believers. The normal mode of operating in this world doesn't work in the spiritual arena. You have to have spiritual weapons. The Word of God, number one, abiding and knowing and believing and trusting and meditating and living in the Word of God. And then a life of prayer. For the battle is not yours, but God's glory.

Insights on revelation from pastor Ray Bentley. Revelation is talking about the realities of unseen things to our physical eyes, but they are just on the other side of this veil that we are hidden The abyss is the home of demons. This place is to be avoided at all costs. And the key to this place obviously belongs to Jesus Christ.

Pastor Ray Bentley points out, the upheaval we see in the book of Revelation all has a point. It's part of God reasserting his kingdom. Exemplify five and four trumpet judgments. These first four trumpet judgments all happen in the natural realm. They affect the land, the salt water, the fresh water, as well as the heavenly bodies above us. And God's purpose is to bring down the idols so that he is the last God standing.

Today on Maranatha Radio. Pastor Ray Bentley says there's a central message surrounding the return of the Lord. What was the message of John the Baptist 2000 years ago, before the first coming of the Messiah? Prepare. Get ready, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. And even after John the Baptist was beheaded, Jesus then picked up that same message and said, Get ready.
