When Adam and Eve put themselves before, or in the place of, God, then bad things started to happen. Here God pursues them and lays out the plan of saving them.

As we start a new year together, we begin at the beginning. This year we'll journey through much of the bible in a year. These 3 Minute Thoughts are here to help you navigate a passage's place in the bible and to help you keep up if you get behind.

The end of the Bible is the beginning of our hope. Jesus is coming back and he's coming soon. We'll just scratch the surface of this promise in our 3 minutes together today.

The end of Revelation is a picture of creation as it was originally intended to be. This chapter is all about God making good on the promises in the rest of the Bible. Here is all becomes real.

As we approach the end of all time, we have to wrestle with how we come into this book of the bible. Do we read it literally or figuratively? Whichever we choose, we have to be consistent. There is a ton of information in this chapter and we will merely scratch the surface but know that Christ is coming and when he does you won't be able to miss it!

Throughout the book of Revelation we see devastation and things that cause fear. We know that the end will come and that Jesus will return but when? This chapter is when that actually happens as Jesus rides in on His white horse to declare victory and judgment.

The tide begins to turn as we round the corner to the final chapters of this book. Judgement is levied. The stage is being set for the saints of God to be welcomed to glory.

As we approach the must challenging of times even evil will start to work against itself. This chapter reveals what that will look like.

When John unveils the bowls of wrath we can see a little history come back to us once again. We not only see the future of where things will be headed but the history of where God's people have been.

As John sees the end of all time the images get increasingly disturbing. Here the water is on fire and plagues are on the horizon and yet all of it is promised to bring us relief and aide in just the right time.
