Tell City Nazarene Church's Biblical Journey
With Pastor Charles Areson
Today's reading is 3 John, Jude, & Revelations 1-2
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, not the end times, not the Anti-Christ, not anything else though there may be other things to learn, this book is intended to reveal JESUS. Using this final book of the Bible as anything but to uplift and reveal Jesus will lead people astray.
This book is written in an apocalyptic style and can honestly be interpreted many ways intelligently. Grace should be given to those who interpret differently than you do unless it is leading them away from the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
When we look at the Old Testament, we see Jesus' first coming more clearly since he has come. Many well educated and learned people didn't see Jesus though they had the same scriptures we do. The difference is we see it after the fact (as they say, hindsight is 20/20). When it comes to the second coming, we are in the same place they were, let's be humble.
