The Revelation of Jesus Christ

Lecture 1

May 14, 2021 • Pastor Jonathan Miller • Revelation 1:1

Many teachers of prophecy emphasize what is to come. The Apostle John sets emphasis from the beginning of Revelation. The emphasis is not on what is to come but Who is to come. We must not diminish the importance of the revelation of these future events, but we must properly understand what is to come as a sovereign orchestration crescendoing for Who is to come. We will approach Revelation with a Christ-centric lens, “for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy”. (Rev. 19:10) Revelation is not written in mystery, but written plainly and clearly that all who read, hear, and keep what is written will be fully and completely blessed. The time is near.

"Thy Kingdom Come"

July 2, 2021 • Pastor Jonathan Miller • Revelation 19:10—22:21

Following a time of unprecedented peace and prosperity, where the Lamb rules from the throne of David, Satan will be loosed and lead a revolt with unredeemed humanity from the four corners of the earth. Satan will be defeated and thrown into the lake of fire. The second resurrection occurs for all, small and great. They will appear before the Great White Throne to be judged guilty for their names being absent from the Book of Life. A New Heaven and New Earth replace the corrupted earth that was passing away. These great events whet our appetite for His soon return. He who makes all things new says, “‘Surely I am coming soon.’ Amen. Come, LordJesus!” (Rev. 22:20)

"I Have Set My King"

June 25, 2021 • Pastor Jonathan Miller • Revelation 17:1—19:10

We will trace the origins of the religious and the political system of man symbolized in the Great Whore and the Great City of Babylon. These two great symbols will receive the fullness of God’s wrath through the bowl judgments. This is the moment for which all the redeemed have been looking forward to: the return of the King. This is no ordinary king, but the King of kings, bearing the name above every name. Awaiting His arrival are all the Gentile nations gathered at Armageddon for the last battle prior to the establishment of the Millennial Kingdom. Satan will be bound, the Gentile nations judged, and the kingdom will be established. The tribulation saints and the Old Testament saints will be resurrected and will join the Lamb and the Bride of Christ at the Marriage Supper.

"It Is Done"

June 17, 2021 • Pastor Jonathan Miller • Revelation 14:6—16:21

We open with the third interval, as three angels are sent out to speak to every one who dwells upon the face of the earth. The angels will announce salvation and condemnation. The eternal gospel is declared to all upon the earth, yet it is rejected. This seals the fate of this upon the earth who will experience the judgement of the seals and the judgment of the Day of Lord at the Battle of Armageddon. The seven bowls are filled with the wrath of the Lamb. These are poured out in the final months of the Great Tribulation, just prior to the Return of the King. With all of these bowls the wrath of God is complete. Heaven cries “It is done!” following the seventh bowl indicating the fullness of God’s wrath has been sent upon the earth to judge the unbelievers. Now, the King will return and we shift our focus to what follows after in the Millenium and the Eternal State.
