In Revelation 19:11-13 we see “heaven opened, as it did in Revelation 4:1, but unlike Revelation 4:1, heaven opens this time not to let John in, but to let Jesus out. The time has come at last for the full, glorious revelation of the sovereign Lord. This is the time to which all of Revelation (as well as all of redemptive history) has been pointing, the time of which Jesus Himself spoke in Matthew 24:27-31. No longer is Jesus portrayed as He was in His humiliation, “Humble, and mounted on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey” (Zechariah 9:9) Instead, He rides the traditional “White Horse” ridden by victorious Roman generals in their triumphal processions through the streets of Rome. Jesus is going to reveal himself to the world in a way that He has yet to do. His longsuffering has come to an end, and His authority will be seen and realized. Those who have chosen to follow Him in this life and have died, will return with Him to bear witness to His mighty power and authority. Those who stand against Him will be destroyed in a word. My friends, the time to choose … READ MORE

A century ago most people believed that history was progressing inexorably toward a man-made utopia. The Industrial Revolution, the march of scientific discovery, and the increasing pace of social reform seemed to augur nothing but brighter days ahead.

The Bible teaches that things will be wonderfully better, but only after they become unimaginably worse. There is only one solution for the world’s problems: the return of its true king, the Lord Jesus Christ, to establish absolute monarchy and unilateral authority in His earthly kingdom. Only under His rule will there be peace instead of war, justice instead of inequity, and righteousness instead of wickedness. But that glorious even will not occur without fierce opposition from Satan, his demon hordes, and the world of wicked sinners. As we look toward Christ’s return, we are reminded that the events that are happening that seem to be unfair and immoral, are not going unnoticed by the Lord. Our peace is not found in the governments of the world, and for … READ MORE

How important is the Church in the New Testament? the Church is promised a special place in the plan and purpose of God. The Church, that Jesus established, are the participants of an incredible end time even which will include the groom, who is the Lamb, Jesus Christ. Every person who is a member of the body of Christ will be there as is bride. As a believer you are cordially invited to the “Marriage Supper of the Lamb.” The moment we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior we become part of this Bride to be.
