Download or read book Revelation God S Last Love Letter written by Kenneth E. Nissen and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation is addressed to the churches in chapter one and for the churches in the last chapter. One would expect Gods last love letter to be a favorite book among Christians, but it isnt. It isnt because it isnt understood. This book has been highly received by numerous evangelical leaders and is used as the textbook on Revelation in Bible colleges as far away as Africa and India. From the first, I was taken with the desire of Ken to help people see that the book of Revelation was written primarily to help people in their walk with God in the midst of troubled times, and not as a text to figure out the sequence of the end times. This was also the first time I had seen the theme of overcoming given as the main thrust of Revelation. So, I had to read his manuscript to see if in fact he had come upon something I had missed. I am convinced that he has. I have found his book to be extremely helpful to see the desire of God to have his children to be overcomers, and the resources available to us to do just that as the end approaches. And the book is more than that, for it does not side-step the questions that are raised as one reads the book of Revelation. Stephen R. Bradley, Director of Field Education, Columbia Bible College.

Download or read book 66 Love Letters written by Larry Crabb and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever read the Bible only to come away confused? Learn the meaning of each of the 66 books of the Bible and how each one is a love letter to God’s people. After working with people as a psychologist for four decades, author Larry Crabb invites you to explore the Bible in a new way. He offers a fresh, relational look at Scripture through intimate discussions with God. Told through a series of "conversations" between himself and God, Larry wrestles through what God intends us to understand in each of the 66 books of the Bible. Each book tells a story that is a part of a larger one of God and how He loves His people. Perfect for a small group, bible study, or used as a daily devotional, Larry asks deeply honest questions such as: “God, what is it you wanted me to see in Obadiah?” “And what’s up with Leviticus? Is there anything there for me?” “This one verse in Galatians has always frustrated me. Why is that?” “The way you wrote Revelation makes it difficult to understand—why didn’t you just describe what will happen in a straightforward way?” Listen to the story of God unfold through these chapters, and you’ll find not only His redeeming love, but His plan and provision designed especially for you. Though life may not be going according to your plan, God has another one, far better than you can imagine. From Genesis to Revelation, experience His invitation to get you dancing with joy.

This book was released on 2014-08-14 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation is not a book of gloom and doom. It is a book of hope. A book of reassurance that, no matter how bad things get in the world, God is still in control and still loves us like light shimmering in the soul. . It was written during a time when Christians were losing jobs and homes, friends and family. During a time when Christians were being imprisoned, tortured, and killed. They were laying everything on the line for Jesus. Everything! They needed hope. They needed this love letter. . This is a history of the world before Jesus was born, especially the world of the Israelites. It is also an account of Jesus birth, ministry, and death. It ends with the final doom of Satan and the final victory of the church, the heavenly Jerusalem. After all, does not chapter 1, verse 19 state that John was to “write, therefore, what you have seen [past], what is now [present], and what will take place later [future]”? . The scriptures always interpret themselves; therefore, the author takes you through each scene with applicable background scriptures to magnify the meaning with unique clearness. . This is God’s last love letter to the world. He has done everything possible to help us escape hell, including offering his only begotten son to die in our place. We are his children. He loves us and does not want us to be hurt. He tells of the overwhelming joy he can give those who accept his Son as Lord of their life. He also tells us that, if we become Christians, he will protect us as he always protected his children in the past. This is one last reassurance. One last love letter from God. . Cast aside all the horror stories you have been told about Revelation. View it now with fresh new eyes, be awed, and be showered with God’s love.

Download or read book A Missionary Looks at the Love Letter Book 1 written by RICHARD. LEHMAN and published by . This book was released on 2024-04-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus gave Revelation as a love letter for his servants to share with the church. It is addressed to us from, "...him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood," (Revelation 1:5) He reminds us that he personally suffered and gave his very best for his bride, the church. But then with a broken heart, in his first letter to the church he says, "...you have left your first love." (Revelation 2:4) This book interprets Revelation by following the instructions given to us in the first chapter. We are told to compare Revelation to the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ (Revelation 1:2). Revelation is a heart heavy message, very carefully and personally delivered by Jesus Christ himself. He doesn't take it lightly when people write up their own interpretations and imaginations about what it means. That is why this particular book carefully considers the spiritual heart message that is being delivered to the ministry, and we will address each scripture within Revelation in the same order as it was originally given. Almost every scripture within Revelation (hundreds of them) are derived from other scriptures within the rest of the Bible. There is no way to interpret Revelation without carefully considering what those scriptures spiritually teach us, and then what Jesus is telling us with them through his Revelation. This is exactly the way that the apostle Paul taught us to understand scripture, "Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing spiritual things with spiritual." (1 Corinthians 2:13) Revelation is also a book of many sevens. Addressing things seven times is God's way within scripture of completing his purpose and his work. There are four different patterns of seven that are explicitly identified within Revelation: 7 churches, 7 seals, 7 trumpets, and 7 vials of the wrath of God poured out. This pattern of four sevens matches how God said he would correct his people back in Leviticus chapter 26. He said four different times that if his people stray away from him, he will correct them seven times, and in the last seven he will correct them in his fury. Accordingly, the last pattern of seven within Revelation is done in God's wrath and fury. Revelation finalizes the corrections for all the problems in the church. "A Missionary Looks at the Love Letter" has been written so that you can respond from your heart to the love letter Jesus wrote to you. Christ died so that we can have a personal heart-to-heart relationship with him and his heavenly Father through the Holy Spirit. That is how he first established the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. Consequently, the purpose of Revelation is to fill us in a greater way with his sacrificial love. Intellectual understanding into the different symbols, types and patterns of Revelation are a byproduct of that heart transformation. Consequently this book will also explain all of these symbols, types, and patterns in complete detail directly from the scriptures. The book is titled, "A Missionary Looks at the Love Letter... " because as a missionary, the author has taught this Revelation message to over a thousand ministers already. The purpose of Revelation is first to shake and awaken the ministry to their responsibility to respond directly to the heart of God. For those ministers where that spiritual heart change takes place, a revival breaks forth in their life and spreads to others! Revelation is for revealing Jesus Christ in a greater way than we have known him before. And that is what will happen if we really get true understanding into the book of Revelation. "That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fulln

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tour the Final Book of the Bible Revelation was written because God wants us to know what the future holds. For Christians, the prophetic truths within provide wisdom, reassurance, and discernment—while for unbelievers, Revelation is a plea to receive God’s grace while there is still time. Bestselling author Amir Tsarfati examines what Revelation makes known about the end times and beyond. Guided by accessible teaching that lets Scripture speak for itself, you’ll take a closer look at the timeline of what believers and nonbelievers will experience before, during, and after the tribulation plan that the Lord has specifically prepared for the people of Israel in the end times encouragements, challenges, and warnings Jesus Himself gave to prepare us for His return Revealing Revelation provides an eye-opening look at what lies ahead for every person in the end times—either in heaven or on earth. Are you prepared for what is to come?

Download or read book Revelation written by G. K. Beale and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2015-01-02 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book 2 Revelation written by David Dellit and published by . This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is David Stephen Dellit. I am God's chosen scribe to record his words found in this letter to his children living in the end-times. God calls his letter, 2 Revelation. God's call is to the whole world, but in particular to those sincere God lovers amongst Christians, Jews, and Islamists.On Valentine's Day, February 14, 2013, God commenced delivering via me, his urgent warnings, commanding me to type his words and to send them out into all the world. God's words were clear to me in my inner senses, bypassing my ears, but at other times I would be seated at my PC keyboard, notice hours had passed, many pages were typed, but I was completely unaware of the passage of time and could not recall anything. I did not know what was typed. It was as if I had been asleep. God had taken me over. It was a very supernatural feeling. Many times God called me urgently to my computer, often he simply started talking and I had to rush to my computer and start typing. God's words became known as The Valentine Prophecies, because God chose to begin speaking on Valentine's Day. God told me to include sections about me and my life with him, to aid peoples' belief. In May 2014, God began calling his words 2 Revelation, and instructed me to add chapters and verses to assist study and referencing by religious leaders, teachers and others drawn to study his words. God regards 2 Revelation as his love letter of warning to his children in the end-times, and the natural conclusion to Revelation found in the New Testament. 2 Revelation from God is here to prepare the bride for the imminent return of Christ. God warns that we are all asleep, none of us are awake, we are all wrong, all need to repent, all need to stop doing what we are doing, listen to God, and begin afresh under the direct guidance of Christ through the Holy Spirit. Those who choose another way, risk being left behind at Christ's return, remaining on the earth to face a horrific refinement. Naturally, due to the task God has given to me, I am frequently insulted, accused, ridiculed and mocked, and this is a blessing to me, but grieves the heart of Father God, for most hatred comes from his children. Every day God tells me he loves me, because I do what he tells me to do. I am honored to become increasingly poor, as the kingdom is enriched. It is impossible to say no, to the heart that is the sweetest of all. Beware the many stumbling blocks that hinder most. Just as it was in the days of Noah, the people were either clearly within the ark, or were outside the ark, and there were no half positions. Likewise, there are no half positions with 2 Revelation. The Spirit draws those with a heart prepared to embrace it fully, while others will reject what is an offence to them. People who do not want to be hot or cold, are self-deluded if they think God does not know hearts of a lukewarm persuasion toward his urgent end-times warnings. God desires spiritual intimacy with us. He desires to walk and talk with each one of us. If you do not have this, God includes all you need to know in 2 Revelation, but essentially, turn your TV off or reduce your long work/study hours by one to two hours daily, for distraction-free one-on-one time with God, reading and meditating on scripture, praying, praising, etc. God warns busy sincere religious leaders, Pastors, Priests, Rabbis, and Imams that it is time to slow down, to draw near to him in spiritual intimacy, because great fear, distress, and regret will grip those with heads full of scripture, and with resumes overflowing in religious credentials, who are left behind.In all of these matters, I remain nothing more than God's servant, his scribe, commanded to write down his words, and to send them out, and this I have done faithfully.

Download or read book Revelation s Great Love Story written by Larry L. Lichtenwalter and published by Autumn House Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Revelation. The Apocalypse. Words that often call to mind bizarre creatures, strange seals, dreadful plagues, and a slew of other mystifying symbols.Most of us approach this last book of the Bible with forebodings rather than hope. To us John?s vision seems more like a nightmare.But the elderly apostle begins with a statement that doesn?t seem to fit the rest of the book: ?The revelation of Jesus Christ.? Apparently he intends to unveil something tremendously important about Jesus. Something life-changing. Something we can?t afford to miss.Larry Lichtenwalter explores a side of Revelation seldom portrayed: Christ?s passionate love for humanity. This recurring theme subtly appears in the imagery and symbolism throughout John?s vision. The slain Lamb. The divine protective sealing. The blood-bleached-white robes. The heart-wrenching prayer of the saints. Without Christ?s love, these scenes and symbols would mean nothing.Ultimately John?s vision reveals the extraordinary love of our Savior for His rebellious, undeserving children?and the incredible reasons we can love Him in return.

Book excerpt: God has a Love Letter for His Church. It starts with Revelation 3:19. Jesus said, "As many as" [whoever] "I love, I rebuke" [admonish, convict, tell of a fault] "and chastise" [train up, educate, instruct, teach, disciple]. When we look at Revelation 3:19a this way, hopefully we are able to see God's rebukes and chastisements not as a condemnation, but as an Invitation. An Invitation to become what God always intended us to be, but that we have not yet been able to achieve, despite our best efforts. Consider this little booklet your Invitation, your Love Letter from God. Heaven awaits your return response.
