Revelation Explained
AN OUTLINE OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION
CHAPTERS:
- 1-3. THESE ARE HISTORICAL BUT WITH VALUE FOR TODAY AS WELL. TAKE NOTE OF VERSES 1:6-7, EVERY EYE WILL SEE HIM AND WILL WAIL ON ACCOUNT OF HIM. EVEN SO, AMEN. 2:12-15, THE TEACHING OF BALAAM. 3:10-12. IT APPEARS THAT SOME WILL BE SPARED AT LEAST SOME OF THE END TIME TRIALS.
- A VISION OF HEAVEN. THE 24 ELDERS. 12 FROM THE OLD TESTAMENT AND 12 FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT.
- JESUS IS FOUND WORTHY TO OPEN THE SEVEN SEALS.
- THE FIRST FOUR SEALS ARE THE HORSEMEN.
WHITE RIDER: JESUS TO CONQUER.
RED RIDER: SATAN TO TAKE PEACE FROM THE EARTH.
BLACK RIDER: FAILURE OF CROPS, FAMINE, THE BURNING OF GRAIN IN THE SEIGE OF JERUSALEM IN 70 AD.
PALE-GREEN RIDERS: PLURAL: DEATH AND HELL WERE GIVEN POWER OVER A FOURTH OF THE EARTH TO KILL. THIS HAS TWO FULFILLMENTS, IN 70 AD AND THE DEATH OF PERHAPS 1 MILLION JEWS AND MORE TAKEN INTO SLAVERY AND THE DESTRUTION OF THE SECOND TEMPLE. ALSO IN 132-135 AD THE BAR KOKHBA REVOLT THAT KILLED 500-600 THOUSAND JEWS, TWO THIRDS KILLED AND MOST THAT ARE LEFT ARE TAKEN INTO SLAVERY AND THE CITY OF JERUSALEM ORDERED BY HADRIAN TO BE PLOWED UNDER. THERE IS YET A FUTURE FULFILLMENT TO BE COMPLETED BY THE ANTI-CHRIST AND ISLAM.
FIFTH SEAL: THE MARTYRS IN THE FIRST CENTURY AND LATER, THEN AGAIN AT THE END OF THE AGE. SEE CHAPTER 7
THE SIXTH SEAL: THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST. SEE MATTHEW 24. THE SECOND PART IS AFTER CHRIST AND THE 144,000 HAVE ASCENDED AND HOVER OVER THE MOUNTAINS OF JERUSALEM.
- THE 144,000 JEWS WHO ARE WITNESSES, PRIESTS FOR JESUS, CONVERTING JEWS IN THE BEGINNING AND AT THE END. SEE CHAPTER 14:1-5. THE ANGELS ARE TO WAIT TILL THE SEVENTH BOWL OR VILE IS PORED OUT. SEE CHAPTER 16:17-21. THEN THE CROWD TO GREAT TO NUMBER COMING OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION. THE RAPTURE.
- THE SEVENTH SEAL: THE OPENING OF THE SEVEN TRUMPETS.
THE FIRST FOUR TRUMPETS: GLOBAL THERMAL NUCLEAR WAR.
- THE FIFTH TRUMPET: THE ARAB / MUSLIM WAR THAT DEFEATS THE JEWS AND TORMENTS THEM FOR FIVE MONTHS.
SATAN LEADS THEM. ISLAM.
THE SIXTH TRUMPET: THE FOUR {FALLEN} ANGELS WHO ARE BOUND AT THE EUPHRATES, {NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH THE FOUR ANGELS IN CHAPTER 7 WHO WERE TOLD TO WAIT}, TO RELEASE THE 200 MILLION MAN CHINESE ARMY TO KILL ONE THIRD OF ALL MANKIND. VIRTUALLY EVERY MAN WOMAN AND CHILD BETWEEN THE RIVER EUPHRATES AND CHINA OVER THE NEXT 3 &1/2 YEARS. {CANABOLISM}.
- THIS CHAPTER SAYS THAT THER WILL BE NO MORE DELAY. WHEN THE DAYS, PLURAL, OF THE SEVENTH TRUMPET CALL CHRIST WILL RETURN AND THE RAPTURE WILL OCCUR. THIS IS SWEET AND SOUR BECAUSE WE MUST GO THROUGH A TIME OF TERRIBLE SUFFERING BEFORE OUR REDEMPTION.
- THE ANTI-CHRIST AND ISLAM WILL TRAMPLE THE HOLY CITY 42 MONTHS. THE TWO WITNESSES WILL PROPHESY 1260 DAYS IN SACKCLOTH. THEN THEY WILL GO UP TO JERUSALEM AND THE ANTI-CHRIST OR BEAST WILL MAKE WAR ON THEM AND KILL THEM. AFTER 3&1/2 DAYS THE BREATH OF GOD ENTERED THEM AND THEY STAND UP AND RISE UP IN A CLOUD IN THE SITE OF THEIR FOES. THEN A GREAT EARTHQUAKE THAT KILLS 7,000. THEN THE SEVENTH ANGEL BLOWS HIS TRUMPET AND CHRIST RETURNS.
12 & 13. THE SEVEN SIGNS PAST AND FUTURE:
- THE WOMAN: THE VIRGIN MARY WHO GAVE BITH TO JESUS.
- THE RED DRAGON: SATAN AND THE THIRD OF THE FALLEN ANGELS. NOTE THE 7 CROWNS.
- THE MALE CHILD: BIRTH OF JESUS WHO WAS CAUGHT UP TO GOD.
THE WOMAN WAS PROTECTED 1260 DAYS IN THE WILDERNESS; THIS IS THE TIME OF THE DESTUCTION OF THE JEWS 66-73 AD BY ROME. THE FIRST ANTI-CHRIST {TITVS 666 VESPASIAN} EMPEROR {ANCIENT GREEK} TO BE SEEN AGAIN?? SEE CHAPTER 17:7-14.
- THE WAR IN HEAVEN: SATAN AND HIS FALLEN ANGELS ARE CAST OUT OF HEAVEN BY THE TESTIMONY OF THE EARLY MARTYRS AND OF THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS ON THE CROSS. 60 AD PLUS. SATAN NOW POURED OUT THE ARMYS OF ROME TO DESTROY THE VIRGIN MARY BUT AS MENTIONED IN C. ABOVE SHE WAS PROTECTED FOR 3 & ½ YEARS. SATAN THEN TURNS TO ATTACK THE CHRISTIANS.
- THE BEAST: NOW FAST FORWARD 2000 YEARS. THIS IS THE RISE OF THE FUTURE ANTI-CHRIST OR {BEAST} WITH 7 HEADS AND 10 CROWNS. ORIGINALLY 10 NATIONS WITH ONLY SEVEN REMAINING PLUS ONE RISING UP {EIGHT SHEPARDS} AND SATAN GIVES THE BEAST HIS POWER. THEN HE APPEARS TO RECEIVE A MORTAL WOUND, BUT NO, HE LIVES. WHO CAN FIGHT AGAINST HIM? HE MAKES WAR ON THE SAINTS FOR 42 MONTHS. THE FINAL AUTHORITY OVER THE WHOLE WORLD DOES NOT OCCUR UNTIL AFTER THE RETURN OF JESUS AND THEN THE RAPTURE.
- THE FALSE PROPHET: SETS UP A TALKING IMAGE {BIG SREEN TV?} AND PERSECUTES JEWS AND CHRISTIANS AND DOES PRETENDED SIGNS. THE FORCED TAKING OF THE MARK OF THE BEAST MAY NOT BEGIN UNTIL AFTER CHRIST RETURNS.
- CHRIST HAS RETUNED: CHAPTER 14:
THE 144,000 AND JESUS HAVE FREED THE JEWS AND TAKEN THE CITY OF JERUSALEM AND THEN ASCEND ABOVE THE MOUNTAINS OF THE CITY. THE THREE ANGELS GIVE THE MESSAGES, MECCA BURNS, AND THE WARNING NOT TO TAKE THE MARK OF THE BEAST. IMPORTANT: 14:13 THE RAPTURE OCCURS AND THE SEVEN BOWLS OR VILES OF GODS WRATH ARE POURED OUT.
- CHAPTER 15: THE SCENE IN HEAVEN BEFORE THE SEVEN BOWLS.
- CHAPTER 16: THE SEVEN BOWLS ARE POURED OUT. PRIMARILY ON THE BEAST AND THE NATIONS OF ISLAM. ARMAGEDDON ASSEMBLES, THE GREATEST EARTHQUAKE EVERY, BABYLON THE GREAT IS REMEMBERED AND THE 100 POUND HAILSTONES THAT CRUSH THE ARMIES OF THE BEAST.
- CHAPTER 17: THE HARLOT {ISLAM} IS DEFINED AND SO ALSO THE BEAST WHO WAS {TITVS VESPASIAN 69AD} {666} AND IS NOT AND IS TO COME. NOTICE THE 10 APPOINTED FOR ONE HOUR AFTER CHRIST RETUNS HAVE NO CROWNS AND GIVE THEIR AUTHORITY TO THE BEAST AND DESTROY MECCA. 17:15-18.
- CHAPTER 18: DESCRIBES THE FALL OF MECCA AND THE CALL TO COME OUT OF HER. {ISLAM}
- CHAPTER 19: MECCA {BABYLON} HAS BURNED AND THE RAPTUE HAS OCCURRED; SO NOW THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB IN THE CLOUDS ABOVE JERUSALEM OCCURES. THEN THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON. THE BEAST AND FALSE PROPHET ARE THROWN ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. THEN THE BIRDS ARE CALLED TO CLEAN UP THE CARNAGE.
- CHAPTER 20: SATAN IS THROWN INTO THE BOTTOMLESS PIT AT THE CENTER OF THE EARTH FOR A 1000 YEARS. CHRISTIANS WILL RULE WITH JESUS FOR 1000 YEARS THEN SATAN IS FREED TO DECIEVE THE NATIONS ONCE MORE AND THEN IS TROWN INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. THEN THE WHITE THRONE JUDGEMENT OF ALL WHO HAVE EVER LIVED.
- CHAPTER 21 & 22: THE RENEWED HEAVEN AND EARTH, THE CITY OF GOD AND THE TREES OF LIFE. IT IS MY OPINION THAT THESE THINGS WILL TAKE PLACE AT THE END OF THE SEVEN YEARS FOLLOWING THE BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON. REV. 21:9-11, 22:14-15 EZEKIEL 39:9 AND 40-48.
