Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

From the start of our journey together, we have been working for and looking forward to this point. One day, Jesus, our Savior, will return for us. One day, all things will be made new again in him. One day, there will be a new heaven and earth. One day, the sun, moon, and stars will be done away with and exchanged for the glory of Christ. One day, death will be overthrown. One day, every tear will be wiped away. One day, there will be no more sin. One day, there will never be hunger or thirst again. One day, the overcomers will stand in the presence of th living God. One day, we will behold our precious Jesus.

One day.

The End.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

Many, even my friends, will disagree with me on my position concerning Jesus's 1,000-year reign. There are two main camps: Either the 1,000-year reign is a literal time period, or it is figurative. That seems pretty straightforward. I absolutely land in the "literal" camp.

For me, the description of the temple in Ezekiel is one of the sticking points for me. The things described in Ezekiel have yet to happen, and I just don't see them as figurative.

I also find it difficult to believe that, from the figurative perspective, Satan is currently bound and NOT deceiving the nations.

I have another dozen or so thoughts on the matter, but I have no interest in muddying the water and speaking about things that are too lofty for my tiny brain.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

Babylon is both a physical and spiritual enemy of the people of God throughout the Bible. In today's chapters, we see Babylon finally brought to nothing, but this is not the end of the story, for the one we call the Antichrist arises to power from this defeat of the queen of Babylon.

Again, I have a lot of pieces in my head and no deep understanding of them. Even as I write these words, I recognize that people have been excitedly waiting for me to teach on Revelation, and yet I have to disappoint in that my insight into this final book of the Bible is shallow at best. My friend told me when I was just 25 years old, "Don't go swimming in knee-deep water. Don't teach out of your depth." I have tried my best to keep those words in mind over these last nearly 25 years.

I do want to draw your attention again to the imagery of Babylon being cast down like a heavy stone into the sea. It is the same imagery that Jeremiah used in his writing. I hope that as we draw this year to a close you can see just how interconnected the Scriptures truly are.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

I have, for many years, been intrigued by the two witnesses. When I was about 18 years old, I read a Christian fiction book about the final days. I recognized then that the book was a work of imagination but also that it was inspired by Revelation. It was in that book, thirty years ago, that I first learned about the two witnesses. I've been curious about them ever since. I am comfortable saying that these two witnesses are symbolically revealed back in the book of Judges, and without a doubt, I see them in the book of Zechariah. Honestly, I want to understand Revelation much better than I do, and I'm confident that understanding Zechariah will be instrumental in that endeavor.

I don't have much to say about these chapters. My head swirls with thoughts. I find it interesting that there are so many people who seem so sure of how Revelation plays out and what all the symbols mean. I must confess, that I am not smart enought for that at this point in my life, so I will hold my tongue for now.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

I am not smart enough to give you any real insight into Revelation. I hope to know and understand it better in another decade, but today, I have told you all I have to tell you about it. I wish I could offer you some great epiphany or some earth-shaking truth, but I'm just not there.

I have friends who believe the seven seals, trumpets, and bowls are just three accounts of the same events. I still can't quite agree; they seem too different to me. But I'm certain they represent God's judgment on a rebellious world.

Of this, I am also certain that God is fair and just and will not treat the righteous and the wicked the same. In that, I find great comfort.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

In chapter four, we have the worship of God as he sits on his throne. In Chapter Five, we see the worship of the Son of God. It would be good for us to practice the worship of the Father and the Son now. It would behoove us to think highly of the Father and the Son and to think lowly enough of ourselves that we could find no better use of our tongue or time than that we worship God who provided salvation for us and that we worship Jesus through whom salvation was provided.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

I will say again that we often read Revelation as if it were a different type of writing than those prophetic books of the Old Testament. I have come to the place where I am wholly convinced that Revelation reads similarly to Isaiah, with both an immediate fulfillment and a future fulfillment. I tend to land in the place where these letters to the churches are more in the immediate days of John the Revelator and less about the future days of the church. I have quit trying to figure out whether or not the believers who gather with us on Sunday are comparable to the church in Ephesus, the one in Smyrna, or even Laodicea. I tend to read them now as letters written to true and existing churches across Asia rather than spiritual representations of churches. (though i'm not opposed to that possibiblity as well)

I love the formulaic language in the seven letters. Here is what I like or dislike, here is who I am, here is what the overcomers will gain. Poetry or prophecy these letters are beautiful. I also like the many references these letters make to previous Biblical texts. Again, we find that a good understanding of Scripture makes these letters come more into focus more clearly than before.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

False teachers, at least some of them, crept in unnoticed but were "long ago designated for this condemnation." They are ungodly. They pervert the grace of God. They deny the master Jesus. These people reject authority. They rely on their dreams. They blaspheme all they don't know. They are grumblers and malcontents. They follow their own desires and have mouths full of boasting.

Be alert and on guard against such people. Resist them, expose them, and, when possible, overthrow them.

Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.

These two "books" are some of the shortest in the entire Bible. There isn't really anything in 2 John that we haven't already covered in First John. Third John seems to deal with an issue in the church and the wickedness of a certain brother. Both are from John the Apostle to specific members of the body. I read these letters and think perhaps my grandmother was right all along; letter writing is a lost art. Somehow, I don't think a text from John would have landed quite the same.
