God's Eternal Kingdom (Part 3)

Gary DeLashmutt

Genesis 3:17-19

The interior of the New Jerusalem contains a garden which symbolizes its restorative power. In the Garden of Eden, man first experienced theological, psychological, and ecological separation. This restoration with God, ourselves, and nature is provided only through Jesus' sacrificial death. Those who have received this gift should then tell others.

God's Eternal Kingdom (Part 2)

Gary DeLashmutt

Revelation 21:9-27

This passage on the New Jerusalem is mainly symbolic, but indicate literal truths about its glory. It will be populated by God's people, full of the beauty of perfect creation, full of human creativity, utterly secure, and pervaded by God's presence. Christians who focus on their inheritance in this kingdom will have greater resilience in adversity.

The Temple and the Two Witnesses

Scott Risley

Revelation 10:1-11:14

In the last days there will be a physical temple and two witnesses through which God will give a final plea to his creation as a whole to turn to him and receive forgiveness. These events are literal and we have current signs that could easily lead to the fulfillment of these prophecies.

God Seals His People

Scott Risley

Revelation 6:12-7:17

Before Christ returns to earth, there will be a seven year period of suffering called the Tribulation. Right before the suffering comes, God puts a seal of protection on his followers that are left after the rapture. God never breaks a promise and always takes care of his people.

God's Eternal Kingdom (Part 1)

Gary DeLashmutt

Isaiah 25:6-9

The eternal kingdom of God will be a material place, will be primarily about relationships, and will be a place of healing. The main reason to believe that this will be a real place is because of God's flawless record of fulfilling his predictions. God says that entrance is absolutely free, and only requires asking God for the forgiveness purchased by Christ.

Breaking the Seals

Scott Risley

Revelation 6:1-16

The first six seals have been broken. These are events of God's passive judgement on mankind that lead up to the tribulation and set the stage for the rise of the Antichrist. The first six seals include: 1) the Antichrist (the white horseman), 2) warfare (the red horseman), 3) famine and inflation (the black horseman), 4) more famine, disease, and wild beasts (the green horseman) 5) martyrs in heaven, 6) massive earthquake, sun blackened out, stars falling, mountains and islands rearranging.

God Claims His Own

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 9

John's vision now delves into a description of "The Great Tribulation". This is a period of time between the first and second coming of Christ, but specifically a seven-year period of trial near the end. This vision needs careful dissection to understand the symbolism behind this tribulation, the Abomination of Desolation, and the regathering of Israel. Daniel 9 is used as a reference to help aid this.

The Final Judgment

Gary DeLashmutt

Revelation 20:11-15

In John's vision of the final judgment, he sees that all those who are judged are condemned and sentenced to hell. Many raise objections to the idea of hell, but the Bible abundantly answers these. Contrary to the idea of many, living a good life is not what saves people but instead it is by receiving Christ's offer of forgiveness.

Who is Worthy?

Scott Risley

Revelation 4:1-6:2

The Great White Judgment sounds like a very scary time for people whose sins have not been covered by Christ's death. Why is God worthy to judge the entire human race? 1) God is all powerful, morally perfect, and eternal, 2) He has the right to do whatever He wants with His creation, 3) He is our savior; giving us an opportunity to be rescued from this judgment by His Son's substitutionary sacrifice on the cross.
