Revelation Chapter 1 Discussion Page 24

Margaret : Jesus got the keys of hell and death from Satan Jesus went to hell for us and Satan had no other choice but to give back those keys of hell and death because He , Jesus stripped the devil of all his authority . The cross that Jesus bore was when He stripped the devil of all that Adam gave to him . Jesus went forth to conquer. I believe Colossians talks of this.

It very good

This verse says it all. Cannot get any clearer than that !!! God is the Alpha : Beginning : And the Omega : Ending . !!! He is : He was : He is to come . Praise God !!!!

JESUS told him to write it down and send it. We should be sending the scriptures to everyone we communicate with. JESUS lives though he died. Thank you JESUS for salvation

GLORY TO OUR ALMIGHTY GOD FOR HE IS ALL ABOVE ALL IN HEVEN AND ON EARTH AMEN AND AMEN

REV 1-12...I don 't know if they will post this comment, some of my comments don 't get posted, I believe Satan, has had a hand in that, anyway you mentioned the Pleiades star cluster, as though you were making a connection with the sixteenth verse. And he had in HIS right hand seven stars: If you read on you can see He is talking about seven Angels in His hand which symbolically speaking, the seven Angels are, in His Allegiance to Command, being THE SON OF GOD. The Pleiades is a cluster of stars, with no bearing on these scriptures, the pyramid alignment that you mentioned I believe is possible, there was a time, which is mentioned in Genesis about Angels interfering in the lives of man, I think that they shared super technology for something in return, this would explain how these giant structures were made all over the World, the ones underwater tells me they were built before the flood, these underwater pyramids and the legends of the lost city of Atlantis, were probably all in existence before the flood, the ocean levels were probably much lower in those days, and at that time it was all dry land, until the flood when the scripture says GOD opened the fountains of the deep, and when the water subsided, the force of the water moved the earth and rock to close these fountains which kept the ocean levels as they are today. in my opinion.

My understanding of revelation chapter one is that Jesus is given the tittle almighty.It is not God the father who is talking in verse 8 but Jesus. verse 17-18 john clears the air by saying that 'I AM HE WHO LIVES,and WAS DEAD.This is Jesus The ALMIGHTY.

Anyone who knows anything about Astronomy, knows that the seven stars or seven sisters are the Pleiades. The Pleiades have been nick named the seven stars for over 3,500 years. There are a number of pyramid sites that align with the Pleiades including, Tikal in South America, Abusir in Egypt, the pyramids on mars and the recently discovered under water pyramids of the coast of Japan. There has also been many people claiming to be Pleiadian contactees, most recently Billy Meier and most famous Pythagoras. I 'm afraid your Angels are nothing more that humanoid aliens.

REV 1:7...Nathan, I am pretty sure whoever this false Christ is he 's not going to announce himself as Christ, whatever he does, the people will call him the Christ, and then he will accept the title. The whole world will know when the true Christ returns, you mentioned it in your comment, 2 Peter 3:10: we just half accept the bible as it is and receive the gift of Grace by repenting and change our lives to fall in line with Gods will, which through obedience to his word ever learning we will naturally go through the process of sanctification, which without this we will not see God. AMEN!!

What is the difference between the false christ, and the true Christ? 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Luke 21:8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. The Lord will come as a thief in the night, meaning no one will know the exact time, but when He comes, every eye shall see Him. Not in the wilderness or in the secret place, but in the Sky, He will not set foot upon the earth. Every eye shall see Him, not on a TV but in person.

Dear Word, I am going to meet Christ in the clouds. He will be in the east. All will see him. The dead in Christ will rise first. I will meet him in the air unless I die before He comes back. Yes, we really need to study the scriptures and not be deceived.

Joni what happen in 70 A.D. is religious talk or preacher 's stories. What is going to happen at the 7th trump is the distruction that is going to take place where no stone will be upon another. Right now we still have stones that are 40 foot long that are still there and much of Jerusalem still stands. That little General that burned and ramsacked Jerusalem is nothing compared to what will happen when Christ returns. That is misleading when you say Christ is coming. Which Christ are you going to follow? The first one who is going to deceive the whole world or the second ONE who is going to destroy Jerusalem and burn all the evil rudiments off the earth.

Mary, the seven churches that Revelation talks about were the seven churches of Asia, not any today. We can certainly learn from the examples of what happens to churches when their passion for Christ dims. The very first verse of Revelation says the words of the prophecy were to soon take place. I believe most of Revelation happened around 70 AD. In chapter 11 John was asked to measure the temple, which didn 't get destroyed until 70 AD. There was extreme persecution then. What we need to do as Christians, is be ready when Christ comes again. We don 't know the hour He is coming, so we need to be ready.

Mary they are examples of what churches teach through the generations and Gods Angels report back to him what they see. Those that teach the truth are blessed. The two God loves are the ones you want to go to. No named churches just what is taught.

ok....of the seven churches thats talked about.....are those seven churches here today and does anyone know who they are today....such as....methodist, protestant, etc. etc

How can I get family friends and myself ready for our Lord and saviour Jesus Chirst return with out offending anyone?

Not everyone in the world has a television or iPhone. I believe this will be a miracle that will cause every single person on the planet to literally see Jesus returning, and I believe also that those who are physically blind will be miraculously given sight to see Him return.

Karen I hope you do wait. After reading Revelation with understanding I realized that on the 6th trump Satan comes first as instead of Christ sitting in the temple saying he is Christ and many Christians will be caught worshipping him when the true Christ comes at the 7th trump and they are so ashamed and its a sad day for them. It makes me mad how these preachers out in the world don 't teach or tell their followers that Satan comes in peace as a fake Christ before and we are not to join the one world system. Take heed.

i am a born again christian and i just love what is coming for us. Our Lord Jesus Christ is coming to take us home. and i cannot wait.

G just a thought. Amos 9:10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us. Note. They will just die the people who say we are going to fly and the evil will not overtake us! Rapture not my friends and don 't believe in lies.

I BELEIVE THAT WITH ALL THE EVIL THAT IS IN THE WORLD TODAY THAT CHRIST IS ABOUT READY TO COME AND TAKE US HOME.WE MUST BE READY WE MUST REMAIN FAITHFUL TO HIM IN THESE LAST DAYS PRAY AMERICA

Hello G.: Are you questioning the color of Jesus Christ. We already know that Jesus Christ has Black people in his lineage. There was even a prostitute in his lineage on his mother s side. This is what made up his fleshly DNA. Is knowing this information going to save a person? The answer is no. It is good to know all information in the Bible, however the bottom line during this Dispensation of Grace is that a person gets saved, stay saved and be ready for the rapture. Because if a person does not have it like the Bible states in Acts 2: 38 they are left here to go through judgment and tribulation period.

If it says like brass its yellowish in tone made to glow in fire..isn 't it like a reddish orange tone? So no shoes and the heat on the skin well turn yellowish toned skin "glow "...lambs were out in the wild so not washed to a bleaching white like we see on cartoons..also wavy curly hair and soft. Eyes like fire could mean copperish gold my father had this and looks very much like fire in the sun , hazel even. So I mean flipping the coin over it could very well be a lighter tone not necessarily the pinkishwhite but yes a Mediterranean yellowish tanned tone of the skin. With that wavy soft bleachy Brown hair....just saying...not to goo to extremes...The brass put to glow in the fire well give you a reddish orange brown kind of life your skin turns when you walk barefoot onto hot concrete on a summer day trying to get to the pool he he

Hello Divyanshu Sen: 1 Thessalonians 4: 12 thru 18 is talking about the saints of God. It is talking about the people who have put on the name of Jesus Christ by following Acts 2: 38. This is talking about the Rapture of his church, his bride, and his people. The description is in the Bible, but no man knows the day or the hour when the son of man will come, Matthew 24: 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only . This is the part that is hidden like a thief in the night. A thief does not let you know when he is coming to take something, however you do know the description of a thief.

Behold He cometh 'with clouds '. Here with clouds means 'on a cloud ', or 'on his glory ' according to Strong 's dictionary. Here this coming is not for the bride because in 1 Thes. it is written that "that the day of the LORD so cometh as a theif in the night ". And Word cant disagree with Itself. So this coming is not for the Rapture of the Bride. Because the coming for the Rapture is not a public show. And as in reference with Wesley 's note above, he said every eye means Jews in particular shall see Him. As Joseph of old married a gentile bride and when he manifested himself upon his bretheren, his bride was in the palace. So, Joseph of ild is the perfect type of Christ. His bride will also be in the palace of God as a result of rapture and after that Christ will reveal Himself on His jews bretheren. That is the coming which has been talked about in this verse.

Hello Steven Stark Matthew 5 48 'Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect ". We are not perfect but through the power of the Holy Ghost we work towards perfection. John was already saved when he was put on the isle of Patmos. When he saw the Lord in this form he actually fell down as a dead person because no one could look upon God 's face and live, Exodus 33 20 "And he said, Thou canst not see my face for there shall no man see me, and live ". This is one reason why he came in the persona of Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh, 1 Timothy 3 16.

At this time we are not yet complete we wait and groan within our selves waiting for perfection. John feared because perfection had not yet came.And the work John was to accomplish was in part,but when Christ who is our life shall appear then shall we appear with him in glory,and we shall see him as he is for we then shall be like him.

Hello Dr. Vinod Babu If I can say it like this, Jesus Christ was faithful unto death. This is what made him the faithful witness Even though his flesh did not want to go through what was to come and his soul became sorrowful and very heavy, after he prayed he was able to complete his task, Matthew 26 37 thru 39.
