Download or read book Revelation Timeline Decoded Messiah s Apocalyptic Vision is a War Manual that Uses Symbols and Layers to Hide the Fulfillment written by David Nikao Wilcoxson and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Messiah's apocalyptic vision is a war manual, designed to hide the explanation from those who should not understand it. It uses symbolic words that are defined in the Old Testament to point to a literal fulfillment. If you read Revelation only from a literal perspective, the interpretation is hidden. Understanding the vision is like taking a Biblical final exam. If you've read the whole Word, you will have seen the symbolism that Messiah uses and can apply it to the fulfillment. If you read Revelation as one chronological narrative, the prophecies seem out of sequence. That's because it has four chronological layers, each of which spans from when it was written until Messiah returns. This book explains the prophecies of Revelation on a timeline to help you see how the four chronological layers interact with each other, so that you can comprehend the whole vision. You will learn how to identify who fulfills the role of the son of perdition, the antichrist beast, the false prophet, and the harlot called 'Mystery, Babylon the Great.' You will understand the proper context of the seal, trumpet, and bowl judgments; the little book of Revelation 10, and the two witnesses of Revelation 11. Whether you're a novice at Bible prophecy or someone who has studied it extensively, I provide an explanation that is easy to understand yet has the depth of verse by verse explanations to provide you the evidence you need to prove it out. When the saints can prove the fulfillment of Revelation, they can proclaim to the world the authority of Scripture and the deity of Messiah, to cast down the power of the enemy over people, so that millions are redeemed for the kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the small town of Jordan, Oklahoma residents find themselves the victim of a shocking terrorist attack. A society so completely dependent on technology for its security and commerce has suddenly been turned upside down. Even worse than the uncertainty of their immediate safety is another problem that no one can explain. People who have been dead for years are popping up all over town, appearing and giving witness that the Rapture of the Church is eminent but for the lost, the Great Tribulation. Who will listen to their message and repent and who will refuse to believe their own eyes? Meet Jack, a pastor who is suddenly slapped in the face by what has happened and then baffled when he spots Sister Gregg, a former member of his church. The only trouble is the last time he saw the woman was at her own funeral. The town begins to shake at these events and as a church turns to their leader, Pastor Jack desperately searches for the answers he must give his congregation. How much time remains for people to repent is anyone's guess, for Jack and his flock it's a race to reach the lost. The Dead Rise First is a fast-paced, intriguing read for anyone interested in the Rapture. This book brings something new to readers and is provoking discussion among scholars with this one question: why do the dead rise first? Although purely fiction, the events are based on scriptural answers that unearth a new understanding concerning the rapture of the Church. Does it reveal a mystery about how God will raise the dead in Christ as seen in 1 Thess. 4:13-14? Will it be the same way Jesus was resurrected in Matthew 27:52-53? You decide.

Book excerpt: The universe has many secrets. It may hide additional dimensions of space other than the familier three we recognize. There might even be another universe adjacent to ours, invisible and unattainable . . . for now. Warped Passages is a brilliantly readable and altogether exhilarating journey that tracks the arc of discovery from early twentieth-century physics to the razor's edge of modern scientific theory. One of the world's leading theoretical physicists, Lisa Randall provides astonishing scientific possibilities that, until recently, were restricted to the realm of science fiction. Unraveling the twisted threads of the most current debates on relativity, quantum mechanics, and gravity, she explores some of the most fundamental questions posed by Nature—taking us into the warped, hidden dimensions underpinning the universe we live in, demystifying the science of the myriad worlds that may exist just beyond our own.
Download or read book The 70th Week Of Daniel 9 Decoded written by David Nikao Wilcoxson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2020-06-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two key reasons to read this book. First, the 70th week of Daniel is the only prophecy in the Bible that foretold exactly when Messiah would start His ministry and when He would die for our sins.When you understand the fulfillment, you have tangible proof to give to the world, that the Bible is true and that Messiah is deity.The second reason is that the popular explanations for the fulfillment of Revelation are based on the concept of a futuristic 70th week of Daniel, an end-times seven-year tribulation period.When you understand that the 70th week of Daniel is about the Jewish nation waiting for their promised Messiah to appear in the first century; then you know that it's not about the antichrist.If you insist that the 70th week of Daniel has not been fulfilled, then read Daniel 9:24-27, and ask yourself these questions.During which week of the seventy-week prophecy did Messiah carry out his multiyear ministry? And in which week did He die for our sins? If you're honest with the text, you'll see that the only place for those events is in the 70th week.Regarding the 'covenant' of Daniel 9:27, it's the same covenant that Daniel just mentioned in Daniel 9:4, which already existed.It is the everlasting covenant that was made to Abraham, which Messiah came to 'confirm' with His blood as the Passover Lamb, which paid the price for our sins and ended the need for temple animal sacrifices.We'll all stand before our Righteous Judge to account for what we believe and teach about the most important prophecy in the Bible.I pray that you will read the explanations in this book about the 70th week of Daniel, compare it to Scripture, and discern it for yourself.

Download or read book Vermeer s Camera written by Philip Steadman and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art historians have long speculated on how Vermeer achieved the uncanny mixture of detached precision, compositional repose, and perspective accuracy that have drawn many to describe his work as "photographic." Indeed, many wonder if Vermeer employed a camera obscura, a primitive form of camera, to enhance his realistic effects? In Vermeer's Camera, Philip Steadman traces the development of the camera obscura--first described by Leonaro da Vinci--weighs the arguments that scholars have made for and against Vermeer's use of the camera, and offers a fascinating examination of the paintings themselves and what they alone can tell us of Vermeer's technique. Vermeer left no record of his method and indeed we know almost nothing of the man nor of how he worked. But by a close and illuminating study of the paintings Steadman concludes that Vermeer did use the camera obscura and shows how the inherent defects in this primitive device enabled Vermeer to achieve some remarkable effects--the slight blurring of image, the absence of sharp lines, the peculiar illusion not of closeness but of distance in the domestic scenes. Steadman argues that the use of the camera also explains some previously unexplainable qualities of Vermeer's art, such as the absence of conventional drawing, the pattern of underpainting in areas of pure tone, the pervasive feeling of reticence that suffuses his canvases, and the almost magical sense that Vermeer is painting not objects but light itself. Drawing on a wealth of Vermeer research and displaying an extraordinary sensitivity to the subtleties of the work itself, Philip Steadman offers in Vermeer's Camera a fresh perspective on some of the most enchanting paintings ever created.

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Includes a bibliography for further reading "And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." - The Book of Revelation 6:2 About 2,000 years ago, a prophet named John wrote a book about his strange visions while he was in Patmos, a small Greek island in the Aegean Sea. This John, the Seer, the Revelator, was long believed to be one of Jesus's apostles, but recent historians have determined that he was a second-generation disciple. In fact, he was likely a political exile, writing for Christians under the threat of persecution by the Roman Empire, and his book, the Book of Revelation, was controversial, obscure, and rejected by many local churches as early as the 2nd century CE. Even after it managed to slip into the Bible as the last book of the canon, for years many doubted its authenticity, and others later branded it as the heretical hallucinations of a madman. Despite those controversial origins, the Apocalypse or Revelation of John remains firmly embedded in the Bible as the final chapter of the great saga that opens with Genesis, the beginning of everything. As a bookend to Genesis, Revelation provides a narrative of the end times, the completion of history, and the end of the world. Genesis and Revelation thus constitute the Alpha and the Omega, a surprising expression that the Book of Revelation applies to the divinity. In the opening verses of the Book of Revelation, God says to John, "I am the Alpha and the Omega - the beginning and the end. I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come." John proclaims, "On the Lord's Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet, which said: `Write on a scroll what you see.'" His esoteric narrative, impenetrable to most of his readers, is full of symbols, keys, and metaphors, abounds in strange visions and prophecies, monsters, natural catastrophes, and describes terrifying scenes that are typically described as apocalyptic. This fascinating book also features some of the most well-known religious concepts in the West, things that have provoked fear and fascination for centuries, including the four horsemen of the Apocalypse, the famous number of the Beast (666), the Antichrist (whom Revelation calls "the beast"), and the whore of Babylon. Perhaps inevitably, the interpretation of the Book of Revelation has also generated significant controversy. Once it obtained its canonical status, meaning it was accepted by the whole Church as a divinely inspired text, countless generations immersed themselves in its verses in an effort to decode the visions of the prophet John. Theologians of many ages, and even recent Biblical scholars, have dissected the sentences and found clues regarding the work's authorship, context, and date of composition. One position is that Revelation is the literal truth of things to come, those who await the return of Christ in the clouds, commanding the Heavenly army, while others take a more spiritual interpretation. Still another position is that the book narrates events that were happening while John composed the tractate, and that it is a codified description, in terms which were understandable to the readers of its time, of the persecution of Christians under Emperor Nero or Emperor Domitian. A more intriguing proposition says that Revelation, in its primitive form, consisted of two or more shorter texts, and interestingly, that it originally formed a Jewish document that originally had nothing to do with Jesus. The Book of Revelation: The History and Legacy of the Apocalyptic Final Book of the Bible examines what was written in Revelation, the authorship, and the history behind its placement in the Bible. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events, you will learn about Revelation like never before.
Download or read book Apocalypse in Sight written by Roger Chambers and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps the reader find new insights into the Revelation, whose messages often lie hidden by an outer layer of visual imagery. By providing a guide to the symbols used in John's visions, new ways of looking at the Revelation are opened up which lead to a deeper understanding of this complex Biblical book. The allocation of meanings to symbols is based on examination of symbols used elsewhere in the Bible to find useful precedents. This approach shows how the Revelation uses a consistent set of visual images as a symbolic picture language to convey vital messages relevant across all the centuries to the present. This book also warns of the nearness of the apocalyptic events that will herald the return of Christ back to our suffering Earth. In a concluding chapter the Revelation is aligned with earlier prophecies to spell out a series of events that will lead up to the second coming of Christ - a scenario that involves financial catastrophe in the West and a major war in the Middle-East.

Download or read book The True Doctrine Of The Globe Earth written by David Nikao and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's no way to justify the heliocentric universe with Scripture. The Bible is purely geocentric, and it declares that the sun is moving in a circuit, that the sun has been stopped on one day only, and that the sun has been moved back. The Genesis creation narrative is earth-centered, as the expanse of the heavens was created around the earth, not the sun. And the sun and moon were created to give light and signs to the earth. It never says that the earth was put in motion around the sun. Scripture declares that the earth is fixed in place and immovable. It declares that the Father's heavenly throne is above the Earth. Do we imagine His throne flying through space to stay above it? Scripture describes the ecliptic circle surrounding the globe earth. Forty-eight constellations form a celestial sphere of stars which surrounds the earth as a tent, as a tabernacle, and the jewel of the universe, the globe earth, is in the middle of the great expanse.The enemy pushed the heliocentric model through Copernicus, who published his work reluctantly, saying that it's absurd. Galileo later confessed that the earth is at the center of the universe, and that the sun is moving around it. They propped up Einstein to propose mathematical explanations, to try to disprove the geocentric universe, but his theories have been proven to be flawed. The enemy is using the heliocentric universe model to push their evolution doctrine, to subvert the Genesis account and the validity of the Word. And now they're using the flat-earth theory to cause people to dismiss the geocentric universe. There's been a grand deception, and this book provides the Scriptural evidence of the geocentric view of the universe. Every believer needs to read this book to see what Scripture is declaring, for we trust the Heavenly Father's Word over the teachings of man.
Download or read book The Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Steven Sherman and published by . This book was released on 2010-09 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interpreting Revelation . . . in its Proper ContextToo often the Western Church views Scripture from a Greek Mind-set within the context of a Hellenized society. The Church follows a pagan, Roman solar calendar which fashions a linear, compartmentalized interpretation of the Bible-especially the Book of Revelation.Contrary to this modernist approach, the prophets and writers of the New Testament wrote the Scriptures under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit from a Hebrew cultural context. The authors lived in accordance with the Torah and the lunar Hebrew calendar. The Hebrew historical view is cyclical and the Hebrew Mind-set encompasses a complete lifestyle. The Hebrew and Greek Mind-sets differ in practice. The Hebrew is concerned with action, the Greek with knowledge. Right conduct is the ultimate concern of the Hebrew, right thinking that of the Greek. This distinction is critical because it affects how the Book of Revelation is interpreted.The end-time chronology of the Book of Revelation is not a strict linear account as is often viewed from the Hellenistic Mind-set. Through a Hebrew narrative of spiraling pictures, Revelation gives an overview of the Apocalypse followed by specific details which unveil the future of the nation of Israel, unbelievers and the body of Messiah. The Revelation of Jesus Christ is a unique, verse-by-verse account of the Book of Revelation viewed from a Hebraic Mind-set.

Download or read book The Revelation Explained written by F. G. Smith and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-06-04 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Revelation Explained An Exposition, Text by Text, of the Apocalypse of St. John By F.G. Smith The End of Days The subject of prophecy should be of interest to every Bible student. Its importance can not be overestimated. By it we are enabled to ascertain our true position in this time-world. From the early dawn of creation, Inspiration has foretold with certainty the great facts connected with the history of God's chosen people. By this means alone, the divinity of Jesus Christ and the truth of our holy religion has been established in many minds; for it is not in the power of mortals thus to vaticinate future events. With such surprising accuracy have these predictions been fulfilled that even infidels ofttimes bear witness to their truthfulness. "Behold the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them." Isa. 42:9. "For I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done." Isa. 46:9, 10. The Revelation is a rich mine of prophetic truth. The history of the current dispensation is there delineated in advance so perfectly that we can not but attribute its authorship to Him who knoweth the end from the beginning, and worketh all things after the counsel of his own will. It was written for the special benefit of the people of God, and we should give it prayerful consideration. In the preparation for this work, I have gleaned historical information from all the general and ecclesiastical histories, encyclopedias, etc., within my reach, and only regret that I had not access to a still greater number. However, knowing that large books are seldom read, I determined in advance not to write an extensive work, but to condense the subject matter as much as possible, and, therefore, I have been obliged to omit much valuable material previously gathered. For this reason many lines of prophetic truth penned by others of the sacred writers have been passed over in silence, even though relating to the same events as certain symbolic visions in the Revelation. I have availed myself of all the helps and the commentaries within my reach in the study of this important subject. However, I have but seldom referred to the opinions of expositors. In most cases their explanations are not based upon any established rule of interpretation, and the definite laws of symbolic language are usually overlooked or disregarded. Ordinary readers of the Revelation have always supposed that the only course for them was to take the opinion of some learned expositor and to believe on his authority; and when they have found that equally learned and judicious men sustained the most opposite views, they have been bewildered amid conflicting opinions and have decided that, when such men were at issue, it was useless for them to investigate. While, therefore, I have made every available use of their opinions, it was only for the purpose of forming my own and of enabling myself so to unfold the nature of the symbols that every one might see for himself the propriety of the interpretation given.
