SPN 13: Rapture – The Structure Of The Book Of Revelation

Today we have a very important topic and understanding this will be the KEY to understanding END-TIME PROPHECY.

.

We are going to understand the structure of the Book of Revelation – the last book of the Bible. Ironically, the book is called the Revelation, and still, it is the most confusing and misunderstood book of all the books in the Bible.

.

That itself should ring a bell to us. Just think why is this so? The name of the book is Revelation, and so it is supposed to REVEAL the end times to us. But still, we have so much uncertainty and unrest among Christians today and no one seems to agree on what this book has to plainly say.

.

Always understand one thing, whenever there is something extremely important regarding the things of the Lord, Satan immediately erects a number of controversies and confusions around that topic. The Rapture itself is one such topic.
Similarly, the book of Revelation is a huge controversy among Christians.

.

I believe the book of Revelation is a BLUEPRINT from the Lord clearly telling us how the end times would play out.It REVEALS the entire plan of God and his timeline with such clarity and authority.

.

Remember the entire Bible has prophecies related to the end times. They are found all over the Bible right from the Old Testament to the New Testament. But nowhere in the Bible, the end-time prophecy is given in a timeline format. It’s all over the place but no clarity on the chronology of events. The book of Revelation was given with the very purpose of revealing the sequence of events or a timeline if you will, on the end-time events.

.

So unless we understand the structure of the book of Revelation, the end-time study is a total waste of time. In this article, I am going to explain how the book of Revelation should be understood with regard to its structure.

.

We are not going to study the book of Revelation in this article. Please understand, that is not the purpose of this article. We are only going to understand its structure and purpose.

.

Think of the book of Revelation as a framework or a skeleton that lays out the timeline for us. Now, into this framework or skeleton, we will be able to fit all the end-time prophecies and information that is given to us in the Bible.

.

Be sure to read till the very end of this article as you will clearly be able to understand how easy and plain this great book of Revelation has been structured by God. You can watch the entire video in YouTube as well (you will find the link to the video at the end of this article). Do subscribe and click that bell icon in order to be notified of future videos as they will reveal powerful truths about the soon-coming Rapture event.

.

So let us get started!

.

Many people are not aware of the BASIC but KEY information about the book of Revelation. So, let us start with Revelation Chapter 1, verse 1:

Revelation 1:1 (KJV) The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified [it] by his angel unto his servant John.

.

Many have missed the important information here,

.

First Question: What is this book about?

Answer: It is the Revelation of Jesus Christ.

.

Second Question: Who gave this Revelation and to whom was it given?

Answer: This Revelation was given by Yahweh the father to Jesus himself!

.

Wait a minute! Did you see that?

It’s a Revelation that is being given to Jesus by God.

So there were things that Jesus himself DID NOT KNOW UNTIL GOD gave the revelation to Jesus!

That’s what this verse is clearly telling us!

This is the very reason why Jesus told when He was on earth, that certain things are known only to his Father:

Let us read:

.

[Mat 24:36 KJV] 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

.

Jesus was absolutely right when he said this because, at the time when Jesus spoke those words, he did not know when his return would be.

.

But I present to you, that sometime after Jesus ascension to Heaven and before the book of Revelation was written, Jesus received a Revelation about himself and his next steps from his father – Yahweh.

.

Third Question: What was the purpose of this Revelation?

Answer: to show his servants, the things which must happen soon.

.

.

These 3 questions reveal important information about the book of Revelation:

 

1. It is a Revelation of Jesus

2. It is given to Jesus by his Father Yahweh

3. It is given to inform his servants

4. It is about the things which were supposed to happen soon

.

.

Next, let us read:

.

Revelation 1:3 (KJV) Blessed [is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time [is] at hand.

.

There is a special blessing promised to the one who READS this book, to the ones who HEAR the words of this book which is basically you people who are right now listening to this power nugget, and to those who KEEP the things written in this book!

.

What does it mean to KEEP the things written in this book?

.

The actual GREEK word used here is:

tēreō and it means the following:

• to keep watch or look forward to
• to attend to carefully
• to guard or to keep watch
• to observe

.

So in the context of the verse here, it literally means to look forward to the words of this book to be fulfilled!So there is a special blessing promised to us people!

.

Now a bit of a warning:

.

[Rev 22:18 KJV] 18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

.

[Rev 22:19 KJV] 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and [from] the things which are written in this book.

.

So, we have to be extremely careful when we are trying to understand this book. We MUST NOT ADD ANYTHING TO IT, as well as NOT REMOVE ANYTHING FROM IT.

.

Next, let us read:

.

Revelation 1:19 (KJV) Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

.

Now, this is setting up the stage for us. This verse is giving us a preface about the structure of the book of Revelation. Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Jesus himself is telling John that the vision has a chronological order. I know that immediately many would argue that the book of Revelation IS NOT in chronological order. But please hang on and read the entire article to understand the complete picture.

.

Let us move on.

.

Revelation 1:11 (KJV) Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send [it] unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.I want you to focus on this particular instruction:— send [it] unto the seven churches which are in Asia.

.

Now, this has caused huge confusion among Christians. Many say that this book was written only to those seven churches which were existing at the time John was writing the book of Revelation. It is true that it was a message to the 7 churches that were existing but it does not end there but continues to be a message to all the churches over the ages as I will explain now.

.

Revelation 1:20 (KJV) The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

.

This verse clearly tells us that the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. Angels are eternal beings. They can be destroyed by God if he wants to, but they are spirit beings and immortal.

.
We also read in:

.

Revelation 1:16 (KJV) And he had in his right hand seven stars.

.

Now, these seven stars are the angels of the seven churches as we have seen.

So, it means that Jesus is holding these 7 churches in his right hand. This is permanent.

.

As you know, those seven churches mentioned in the book of Revelation actually existed at the time John was writing the book because, in Rev 1:11, it’s mention as the churches which ARE IN. However, those churches don’t exist anymore. So how can we understand this?

.

There are 3 ways of interpreting this and all are absolutely correct:

.

THE FIRST INTERPRETATION IS:

All those churches WERE Present WHEN the book of revelation was written but don’t exist anymore. This is in line with what is written in Rev 1:11.

.

THE SECOND INTERPRETATION IS:

These seven churches are the types of churches that will exist in different timeframes, right from the time the church came into existence almost 2000 years back, right up to the second coming of Jesus.

.

.

How can I prove this? Consider this:

.

Revelation 3:7 (KJV) And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth

.

Revelation 3:10 (KJV) Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

.

This promise of the Rapture is given to the church of Philadelphia, which is the 6th Church, and this represents a type of church present today. Once this church is raptured as promised by Jesus, there will be another type of church during the time of tribulation, which is the left-behind church. The church that will be left out during the rapture and will go through the tribulation time. Let us read about that Church which is the 7th Church (notice the perfect sequence):

.

Revelation 3:14 (KJV) And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

Revelation 3:15 (KJV) I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

Revelation 3:17 (KJV) Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

.

Make no mistake that this Laodicean Church is very much present today but will be left behind in the rapture. The rich church that runs behind money and the people are neither hot nor cold. What a perfect representation!

.

.

Revelation 3:19 (KJV) As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

.

This church (Laodicean) is also given a chance to repent and indeed many will repent during the time of tribulation and they will go through severe persecution and many will be beheaded for Christ’s sake.

.

Revelation 3:21 (KJV) To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

.

It’s so clearly given that these people who repent and overcome during the Tribulation will be granted to sit with Jesus on his throne.

This is what you exactly read in:

.

[Rev 20:4 KJV] And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received [his] mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

.

Do you see that? How perfectly the scriptures are aligned with each other?

.
So the SECOND INTERPRETATION is that those 7 churches mentioned will exist in different timeframes over a period of almost 2000 years.

.

NOW THE THIRD INTERPRETATION IS:

These 7 churches are representations of all the churches that ever existed or exists! In other words, each and every church can be classified into one of those 7 churches. Now, you be the judge of which one of these 7 churches does your church fit into! A very crucial matter. In fact, every Christian believer can be classified into one of those 7 types of churches. I believe that this interpretation also reveals another very important message: ONLY 1 CHURCH OUT OF THE 7 CHURCHES IS GIVEN THE PROMISE OF RAPTURE. IN OTHER WORDS, ONLY 1 OUT OF EVERY 7 CHURCHES WILL BE RAPTURED.

.

.

When I say 1 out of 7 churches, it does not mean that the whole church will be raptured. The church is nothing but the body of Christ or believers. So it literally means that ONLY 1 OUT OF EVERY 7 BELIEVERS WILL BE RAPTURED.

.

ARE YOU READY? WILL YOU BE 1 OUT OF 7 WHO WILL BE RAPTURED?

.

Another very important point to consider is that the tribulation, the second coming of Jesus, the New Heaven, and the New Earth, none of this has happened yet. So obviously this book of Revelation still applies to us today!

.

So we have proven that the book of Revelation is very much applicable to us today and not just to the seven churches that were existing during the time that John wrote the book of Revelation!

.

Let us move on…

.

.

REVELATION CHAPTERS 2 and 3 CONTAIN THE MESSAGE TO THE 7 CHURCHES AND THE INTERPRETATION OF WHICH WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN.

.

.

.

Let us move to Revelation 4:

.

[Rev 4:1 KJV] 1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door [was] opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard [was] as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

.

There is a big mistake that most of the PRE-TRIB rapture believers generally make when it comes to this verse. They say that this verse is the Rapture. But IT IS NOT THE RAPTURE. This is just a command being given to John asking him to COME UP to Heaven in order to see the vision of things that will happen in the future. The rest of Chapter 4 is just a description of the scene in Heaven.

.

Let us move to Revelation 5:

.

[Rev 5:1 KJV] 1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

.

This chapter focuses on the introduction of the 7 SEALS and the worship of Jesus in Heaven.

.

.

.

Let us move to Revelation 6:

.

[Rev 6:1 KJV] 1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

.

This whole chapter deals with the 6 SEALS. In this video, we are not going to look at what these 6 seals are. There are various interpretations for this and I am not going to deal with that in this video. But what I believe is that the first 4 SEALS have already been opened and the impact of that is already on planet Earth. We are now somewhere around the time of the 5th SEAL and perhaps it has already been opened or will be opened very soon and it is an event in Heaven where the souls of the Martyrs will be awakened and they cry out to God from under the Alter.

.

Let us read that:

.

[Rev 6:9 KJV] 9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

.

[Rev 6:10 KJV] 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 

.

[Rev 6:11 KJV] 11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they [were], should be fulfilled.

.

I believe that this is where we are right now. We are in the REST YET FOR A LITTLE SEASON time. Soon, the 6th SEAL WILL BE OPENED. This is an amazing event and we will deal with that in the NEXT VIDEO, so stay tuned! Don’t forget to subscribe in case you haven’t yet done that.

.

.

.

Let us move to Revelation 7:

.

1. It starts with a pause, followed by the sealing of the 144,000 people from all the tribes of Israel who have a very special mission on earth.
2. The Bible is very clear and does not need any interpretation for this.
3. In Revelation 7:9 we see a huge multitude that no man can number show up in Heaven. I will be covering this also in my next video. Many are confused with the 6th seal and this huge multitude. That is why I will be making a separate video to explain this.

.

.

.

Let us move on to Revelation 8:

.

Starts with the OPENING of the 7th SEAL.

.

This is a very significant event because it is one of the pieces of evidence that the book of Revelation is in chronological order.
Let us read what the 7th SEAL is:

.

[Rev 8:1 KJV] 1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

.

[Rev 8:2 KJV] 2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

.

So the 7th SEAL is nothing but the 7 TRUMPETS!

.
So unless the 7th SEAL is OPENED, you cannot have the 7 trumpets blown!
.

Many people teach that the 7 seals, 7 trumpets, and 7 vials or bowls are the same thing but portrayed to us from different angles, perspectives, or levels of detail. But sorry that is not true! This SEVENTH SEAL PROVES beyond any shadow of a doubt, that the 7 TRUMPETS are absolutely LINKED to the END OF THE SEALS and directly to the 7th SEAL.
.

.

I hope this is absolutely clear to everyone.

.

The 8th Chapter continues with the first 4 trumpets.

.

.

Let’s move to Revelation 9:

.

This chapter talks about the 5th and the 6th trumpets.

.

.

.

Let us move to Revelation 10:

.

Chapter 10 talks about 4 things basically:

1. 1. A mighty Angel with a little book
   2. The 7 THUNDERS, which is still a secret because God told John not to write it down.
   3. A foreword or a prelude about the 7th Trumpet
   4. John eating the little book from the Angel’s hand

.

.

.

Let us go on to Revelation 11:
.

Chapter 11 deals with 3 things:

1. 1. Measurement of the Temple Of God on Earth
   2. The 2 witnesses come on to the scene and they shall prophesy for one thousand two hundred threescore days or 1,260 days.
   3. The 7th Trumpet

.

.

.

Let us transition to Revelation 12:

.

Now, this is THE MOST IMPORTANT chapter in the entire book of Revelation and this has caused so much confusion and is also one of the very reasons why people think that the book of Revelation is not in chronological order.

.

But if you understand the simple truth about this chapter and then look at the book of Revelation, it will cause all the confusion to clear away.
I will take some time to explain this Chapter.

.

Revelation Chapter 12 is almost at the center of the book and is a kind of an overview of the past, present, and future. This chapter actually confirms the chronological order of this book rather than disprove it. I will show it to you now.

.

You can think of this chapter as a kind of a Panoramic View of the entire timeline of God’s calendar. It starts from the past, and takes us through the present, and transitions us to the immediate future, and blends with the next chapters of Revelation.

.

It is a beautiful PANORAMA!

.

.

Let us read some verses in the Chapter to understand better.

.

[Rev 12:1 KJV] 1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

.

The woman is Israel with the 12 stars representing the 12 tribes.

.

[Rev 12:2 KJV] 2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

.

The child is none other than our Lord Jesus Christ. We know this because verse 5 says that “she brought forth a man child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron.” We don’t need more evidence! Do we?

.

[Rev 12:3 KJV] 3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

.

This is satan as we know is the dragon and more evidence to follow:

.

.

[Rev 12:4 KJV] 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

.

This is a little tricky and people get confused when they read this. Is it going to take place in the future or it has already taken place. The verse says “HIS TAIL DREW” in past-tense. I’ve checked the GREEK word used here and the context of how this word has been used in the New Testament, and it has always been used for an event that has already taken place.

.

So the tense used in the verse here is correct. When did this event take place then? Do we have it in the Bible?

Yes, we do.

.

In Ezekial 28 and Isaiah 14, we read about the fall of Lucifer that took place.

.

[Eze 28:15 KJV] 15 Thou [wast] perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

.

This verse is talking about satan saying that his ways were perfect TILL INIQUITY was found in him. So he is no more perfect. He lost his position.

.

[Eze 28:13 KJV] 13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; Notice that it is given in the past-tense.

.

[Eze 28:14 KJV] 14 thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Again, it is given in past-tense.

.

So it is clear that the devil lost his position in the past and along with him he has lured or corrupted one-third of angels.
But here’s the thing, satan lost his position and his dwelling is on earth now but he still has access to Heaven.
Let us first read the passages that tell us the current position of satan.

.

In Cor 4:4, satan is referred to as the God of this world. In Ephesians 2:2, satan is referred to as the prince of the power of the air.
Now, let us read the account in Job Chapter 1 which tells us that satan still has access to Heaven.

.

[Job 1:6 KJV] 6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.

.

[Job 1:7 KJV] 7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it.

.

So this clearly proves that Satan still has access to Heaven. But he will soon be cast out permanently and that is what we see in Revelation Chapter 12.

.

Let us continue our study of Revelation 12 now…

.

[Rev 12:4 KJV] 4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

.

So when the text here refers to the past event where satan got corrupted and along with him lured one-third of Angels and lost their position and habitation in Heaven. Let us continue with the next part of the verse.

.

… and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

.

Now the view transitions from the eternity past to the time of Jesus’ birth. When Jesus was born, the devil wanted him dead, that’s what this verse is telling us. Was there any clue about this during the time of Jesus’ birth?

.

[Mat 2:20 KJV] 20 Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child’s life.

.

See? So it perfectly matches what is given in Revelation 12:4.

.

Let us move on…

.

[Rev 12:5 KJV] 5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and [to] his throne.

.

We already saw that this was Jesus and now the verse moves to the end of Jesus’ ministry on earth and tells us that Jesus was caught up to God and his throne.

.

[Rev 12:6 KJV] 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days.

.
Now, this has not happened yet but this verse is just telling us what happens to the woman who delivered Jesus. It just tells us that Jesus was taken up to Heaven to God’s throne and Israel would flee to a place of safety that God has prepared for her to feed her for 1260 days. It has not yet happened. I will show you when it happens.

.

[Rev 12:7 KJV] 7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

.

Now the view shifts to the FUTURE where war will break out in Heaven between satan and Michael the Archangel.

.

[Rev 12:9 KJV] 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

.

This is when satan the dragon is completely being cast out of Heaven along with his angels. This is a future event that will take place sometime during the mid-point of the tribulation.

.

.

[Rev 12:12 KJV] 12 Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

.

This is almost exactly at the mid-point of Tribulation because it clearly says that the devil knows that he has a short time which is 3.5 years.

.

.

[Rev 12:13 KJV] 13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man [child].

.

This is when Israel would face their time of trouble or know as Jacob’s time of trouble:

.

[Jer 30:7 KJV] 7 Alas! for that day [is] great, so that none [is] like it: it [is] even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

.

let us get back to Revelation 12:

.

[Rev 12:14 KJV] 14 And to  to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.Time = 1 year.

.

So, Time, Times, and half a time means:1 year, 2 years, and .5 or half a year which is equal to 3.5 years.

.

.

This is exactly the time period that we saw in verse 6,

.

[Rev 12:6 KJV] 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred [and] threescore days.

.

3.5 years is equal to 1260 days. Remember in the biblical calendar a month is exactly 30 days. So 3.5 years is exactly 1,260 days.
So verse 14 is the fulfillment of verse 6.

.

Remember I told you in verse 6 that it had not happened yet at the time of the vision but will happen in the future. Now in verse 14, it is being fulfilled.

.

Let us move forward…

.

[Rev 12:17 KJV] 17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

.

So it is very clear that once Israel is moved to safety, the devil went to make war with Christians because it clearly says those who have the testimony of Jesus Christ. These are the people who are left behind in the rapture and repent to God and will be going through the tribulation. I will be explaining all this in future videos.

.

REVELATION CHAPTER 12 ends here by leaving us in the future period of time around the mid-point of Tribulation almost at the start of the last 3.5 years or 1,260 days.

.

.

SO REVELATION CHAPTER 12 IS THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF THE BOOK BUT IT STILL GIVES YOU A PANORAMIC VIEW OF THE TIMELINE RIGHT FROM THE ETERNITY PAST TO THE FUTURE SECOND HALF OF THE TRIBULATION.

.

CHAPTER 12 IS ACTUALLY A BEAUTY BECAUSE THOUGH IT STANDS OUT OF THE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION AT THE START, IT SLOWLY TRANSITIONS AND FINALLY GETS US BACK RIGHT INTO THE SEQUENCE OF REVELATION!

.

WHAT A BEAUTY!

.

.

Let us go to Revelation 13:

.

Chapter 13  starts with the rising of the BEAST FROM THE SEA. This beast is the antichrist.

.

Now what is really interesting and proves the chronological order of the book is the following verse:

.

[Rev 13:4 KJV] 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who [is] like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

.

So the people worshipped the DRAGON which is Satan, which gave power unto the beast which is the antichrist. The people also worshipped the beast or the antichrist.

.

Remember we saw in the previous chapter that the dragon was cast out from Heaven to the earth?

[Rev 13:5 KJV] 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty [and] two months.

Let us go to REVELATION 14:

1. The group of 144,000 people stand with Jesus

.

2. The Angel with the gospel

.

3. Announcement of the fall of Babylon

.

4. Warning to the worshippers of the beast

.

5. The 2 Angels who reap the harvest.  This is not the END OF THE WORLD HARVEST that JESUS SPOKE ABOUT. This is a mistake that many people make and show this event to prove that the book of Revelation is not in chronological order. But this is not the end of the word harvest spoken by Jesus. I will explain this in later videos, stay tuned.

.

.

.

Let us move to REVELATION 15:

.

This is a scene in Heaven with the song of Moses being sung followed by the 7 angels with the 7 vials or bowls of God’s wrath.

.

.

.

On to REVELATION 16:

.

This chapter talks about the following:

.

1. 6 bowls of wrath

2. The unclean spirits like frogs that prepare for the Great Battle Of Armageddon. Note that the battle DOES NOT TAKE PLACE YET. In Rev 16:14 is says “to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.” Then in Rev 16:16, it says “And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.” So people get confused and think that the battle of Armageddon takes place here in Chapter 16. But this is not the case. Verse 14 clearly says that it is to gather them to the battle of THAT GREAT DAY OF GOD ALMIGHTY. So verse 16 only tells us that these frog-like spirits completed their gathering assignment.

.

3. The seventh bowl of wrath is poured out and in verse 17, it says “there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done“. Note that this statement of IT IS DONE IS NOT MENTIONED FOR ANY OF THE SEALS OR TRUMPETS! Those of you who say that these 3 are all the same but from different angles must take note of this point.

.

Let us also read another portion in Revelation which proves that the 7 seals, 7 trumpets and 7 vials are different. Let us read:

.

[Rev 21:9 KJV] 9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues,

.

Did you see that? SEVEN Vials full of the SEVEN LAST PLAGUES.

The phrases such as LAST PLAGUES, IT IS DONE, etc. are not used for the Seals or Trumpets, proving that they are NOT THE SAME THING!

.

4. Great Babylon comes into God’s remembrance to punish it.

.

.

.

Let us move to REVELATION 17:

.

This entire chapter talks about Babylon with a detailed description of it along with its future fate.

.

.

Let us transition to REVELATION 18:

.

This chapter talks about the fall or destruction of Babylon.

.

.

Let us move to REVELATION 19:

.

This chapter portrays the following:

.

1. The marriage of the Lamb

.

2. The Second Coming Of Jesus Christ

.

3. The battle of Armageddon – this is when it actually takes place. Let us read one verse to prove it:

.

[Rev 19:19 KJV] 19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.

.

Note here that the verse clearly tells us that the beast, kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together.

Who gathered them and when?

We already read this in Rev 16:14

.

[Rev 16:14 KJV] 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, [which] go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

.

So you see in Chapter 16, they were only gathered but the war actually takes place when Jesus comes down to earth which is here in Revelation chapter 19.

.

4. Then at the end of the chapter, we see the doom of the Beast and the False Prophet.

.

.

Let us go to REVELATION 20:

.

This chapter deals with the following:

.

1. Satan is bound for 1,000 years.

.

2. The Resurrection of those who were beheaded during the tribulation for Christ’s sake. Please take note: this is a resurrection for that specific group of people only.

.

3. The end of the 1,000 years reign of Christ or generally known as the Millenium

.

4. Satan being loosed again

.

5. Satan gathering a huge army for another war. This is not the Armageddon, please take a note. The Armegeddon was already fought during the 2nd coming of Jesus in chapter 19.

.

6. Fire from God comes down out of Heaven and destroys all the army that came up against the people of God.

.

7. Satan is finally cast into the lake of fire where the False Prophet and the Beast are there. They were thrown there in Revelation Chapter 19:20

.

8. The Great White Throne Judgement

.

9. Death and Hell are cast into the lake of fire

.

.

Now we move on to REVELATION 21:

.

This chapter deals with the following:

.

1. The New Heaven and the New Earth

.

2. The New Jerusalem

.

.

Finally, we go to REVELATION 22:

.

Here we see:

.

1. The River and the TREE OF LIFE

2. The final message… let us read some verses

.

[Rev 22:10 KJV] 10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.

.

So the book of Revelation IS NOT SEALED. That is why it is easily given to us in perfect sequence one event after another. Yet people have complicated this book so much and have SEALED IT UP! The devil has succeeded in blinding the people by confusing them.

.

[Rev 22:20 KJV] 20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

.

.

THAT IS THE FINAL MESSAGE OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION – BEHOLD JESUS IS COMING QUICKLY!

.

I hope you have seen how beautifully and easily the book of Revelation has been structured. If you understand the secret of Chapter 12 and see the Panoramic View that it provides by starting from the past and blending seamlessly into the future, the entire book of Revelation becomes so orderly and in sequence.

.

We have reached the end of this video and like I said this was not a study on the book of Revelation but rather an understanding of the structure of the book.

I will be posting videos where we will focus on the major events of this book with specific details as the Lord leads.

.

But the next video as I had promised is going to be on the 6th Seal and the “Huge Multitude That No Man Can Number”.

.

Stay tuned and look forward to that exciting video!

.

May God Bless You!
