The
picture above by artist Alex is accurate. This is the state of many people
today. TOO BUSY to be bothered by the possible trumpet call. I believe not
many are going to hear it with all the NOISE in the daily ritual.
Purpose for a Study
of End Times
Having
spent decades sitting under dozens of pastors, teachers and theologians
there is one statement that fits them all. Man is either too afraid to
tackle this area of the Bible or too much of an “expert” to see the errors
that he is promoting. This area of scripture is the SIMPLIST subject of the
entire Word of God. Somehow it has become the most avoided subject in the
world.
Opening
the Bible and reading about a man being crucified does not bring an
understanding of why he did it willingly. The starting point must be
reading and finding out WHO that man was and WHY he had to die. Reading
about the Garden and the Passover shapes the mind to understand a baby
being born and then the steps that child as a man takes walking to
Golgotha.
In
like manner, reading the Book of Revelation without the foundation of the
rest of the story taking place in scripture makes understanding fruitless.
That is the reason for the misconception that no one can understand what is
said about the end!
The
purpose of this page is to offer only an overview into what the Bible
states regarding events yet to occur in the time period we are
living.

How to Study Bible Prophecy
If
reading a book, do you read the last chapter to cram for the exam? Reading
Revelation before anything else is cramming for that exam. There is no
understanding. Nothing but confusion regarding the ending pages can occur.
The prophets, disciples and Jesus Himself LAID THE FOUNDATION for the
Revelation that John would receive on Patmos. John’s vision completes and
compliments Daniel’s vision word for word.
The
Bible is intended to show man the Plan of God. So why not see what he says
regarding the “Plan” for the “End”? God the Son has been a part of that
plan from Genesis to Revelation. If that is not understood, it is
difficult to accept how that information is given to us.
Jesus
Christ the Son of God was here and answered the question of what was going
to happen in the End Times. What better place to start on the subject than
with the EXPERT – the SON OF GOD!
There
is a separate study called: “God the Son from Genesis to
Revelation”
Complete
that study first and then return here.
