The last few verses of Revelation 11, which tell of the sounding of the seventh trumpet, are, in large part, the culmination of the letter to that point. Messages had been sent to the church, John had seen into heaven, seals had been opened, trumpets had sounded, judgments had come, souls had been saved and...

Revelation Bible Study: Wednesday, December 2nd
What if the only thing standing between faith and anxiety is our willingness to see things differently? The Bible is filled with things that appear to be dichotomies to us, light in darkness, death from life, calm in chaos. We tend to believe that one of those things needs to be removed so that the...

“The Sweetness and Bitterness of Scripture,” Revelation 10:8-11
At the beginning of Revelation 10, John saw “a mighty angel coming down from heaven.” In the angel’s hand was an opened little book. When the angel cried out, “seven thunders uttered their voices”.

“Unwritten but not Unsure,” Revelation 10:1-7
This week we get back to our study of Revelation with chapter 10, a new movement in John’s visions with what appears to be a new character, a new scroll and a new or different action. In chapter 5, John told us about a sealed scroll that could only be open by the Lamb who...

From Silence To Trumpets | Revelation 8:7-13. Revelation Bible Study: Wednesday, August 12th
Revelation 8 takes us from silence to trumpets, and the key is the in between. Heaven goes silent in reverence and awe and the earth is filled with the sound and reality of judgment, but in between this we see God not being filled with anger or disappointment over the sin of man, but instead...

Silence, Prayers, Sovereignty | Revelation 8:1-6
Revelation 8 begins with silence in heaven. That silence is broken by the prayers of the saints and then concludes with fire being thrown to earth and seven angels preparing to blow trumpets of judgment. In the midst of all of this there is the realization that God has allowed our prayers to mix with...

“He Dwells With Us,” Revelation 7:13-17
Most often, when we are asked a question, we immediately assume we need to have the answer. Few of us like to admit we don’t know; but most of us fear disappointing those whom we believe look to us for guidance. Revelation 7 gives us something to think about when one of the elders asks John...
