UNDERSTANDING REVELATION
Author: ANNALISE VAN RENSBURG
Publisher: Annalise Van Rensburg
ISBN:
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
The Bible is a gift to mankind to understand the purposes of God from the beginning to the end. The whole Bible is about the Christ that came to redeem man. however the natural carnal mind, cannot understand the eternal purposes of God and get stuck in the individual stories rather than understand the working of God's Spirit in Time. To understand time is of utmost important, because in the fullness of time, God send forth His SON. The natural mind gets lots in the corridors of time, never understanding God's purposes. Misplacing prophecies causes major confusion and fear in the church. God is not the author of confusion, natural fleshly interpretation of spiritual prophesy is. 2Pe 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. We cannot change times or history, we can only understand spiritual principals and apply them in the Spirit. The whole Bible is about The Christ. Heb 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. The first world was destroyed for God did not want His spirit to strive with man. A new world stood out of water, but Noah's revealed his nakedness and his generation ended in Babylon, the raven generation. God called Abraham and the Testimony of Christ Started with this father if faith and 4030 years later, Moses started building the house. Desiring a worldly king this chosen generation rejected God and the Dove left and they ended in Babylon. Refusing to sing God's song their path was set to destruction. When Christ came they received him not, missing their day of visitation, they crucified their messiah and brought the day of vengeance upon themselves. The book of Revelation, the final prophecy in the Bible is the consummation of all that was written down from the beginning to the end. This awesome book is summed up in one verse. Hebrews 10:9 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. The old refers to the world of the law, which was a preparation for the body in which God would manifest on the earth. Hebrews 10:5 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he said, Sacrifice and offering thou would not, but a body hast thou prepared me: The law world was a system of worship that foreshadowed the GOOD things to come and it was a shadow of the heavenlies. They worshipped the system instead the God of the system. Revelation is the hand of God revealed, that was still outstretched after He dealt with all the nations and Israel in Babylon. The book is about; 1. The Christ - the head. Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; 2. The Church - The BODY 3. The adversary- The Dagon , the Beast and the False Prophet. 4. The Removal- The Seals, the Trumpets and the Vials 5. The Kingdom- The Dwelling place. Revelation is not a book to fear, there is a blessing contained for believers. Rev 1:3 Blessed is he that reads, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. Revelation is not to be tampered with private interpretations. Rev 22:18 For I testify unto every man that hear the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: Rev 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. The Word is explained by the Word and the Spirit and we cannot change history.

Systematic Theology
Author: Paul Tillich
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022616263X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
In this volume, the third and last of his Systematic Theology, Paul Tillich sets forth his ideas of the meaning of human life, the doctrine of the Spirit and the church, the trinitarian symbols, the relation of history to the Kingdom of God, and the eschatological symbols. He handles this subject matter with powerful conceptual ability and intellectual grace. The problem of life is ambiguity. Every process of life has its contrast within itself, thus driving man to the quest for unambiguous life or life under the impact of the Spritual Presence. The Spritual Presence conquers the negativities of religion, culture, and morality, and the symbols anticipating Eternal Life present the answer to the problem of life.

The Spirit in the Book of Revelation
Author: Robby Waddell
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004397078
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The investigation centres on the role of the Spirit in Revelation, which the author considers is best defined as the Spirit of Prophecy. A survey of scholarship on the pneumatology of the Apocalypse is followed by a study of intertextual connections. The author’s own religious context within Pentecostalism then informs a possible hermeneutic that is faithful to the ethos of the movement. Biblical and literary studies are situated within the context of a Pentecostal community as attention is paid to the prophecy concerning the temple and the witnesses in Rev 11. This key passage is shown to form the theological as well as the literary centre of the Spirit’s role in Revelation.

Revelation
Author: G. K. Beale
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 1467442011
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 576
Book Description
G. K. Beale’s monumental New International Greek Testament Commentary volume on Revelation has been highly praised since its publication in 1999. This shorter commentary distills the superb grammatical analysis and exegesis from that tome (over 1,300 pages) into a book more accessible and pertinent to preachers, students, and general Christian readers. As in the original commentary, Beale views Revelation as an integrated whole, as a conscious continuation of the Old Testament prophetic books, and shows that recognizing Revelation’s nearly constant use of Old Testament allusions is key to unlocking its meaning. Interspersed throughout the volume are more than sixty sets of “Suggestions for Reflection” to help readers better grasp the relevance of Revelation to their lives and our world today.

Plus, help students connect using: Short stories about young people that relate a teaching or belief to a young person's lived experience. Focus questions introduce each unit in the voice of a teen, guiding students in focusing on what they might learn; units end with an image of a real student and his or her reflections on the unit focus question, inviting the students to check their own understanding. A Unit Highlights section that uses graphic organizers to visually represent the key concepts from each chapter "Hmmm" questions at the end of each article that encourage students to think critically about Christian beliefs.
