REVELATION

Adam Ray // December 15, 2024 This chapter introduces two witnesses tasked with prophesying about the things to come with complete and utter resistance from a world in complete rejection of the returning Christ.  God empowers them to be untouchable until the completion of their mission.  The passage concludes with the assurance that God’s kingdom…

John Vermilya // December 8, 2024 The reality of life is that everything changes and nothing is certain. But God never changes and His plan is certain. God reveals himself and his perfect plan in the Bible, so that we can place our trust in Him.

John Vermilya // December 1, 2024 Satan is evil and powerful but is still under the authority of the Sovereign God. And although God is not the author of evil, He will use evil to judge evil, and thereby turn evil upon itself.

John Vermilya // November 24, 2024 “How long?” is the question that has been ringing through the prayers of God’s people for thousands of years. In the opening of the seventh seal, we see God hallowing His name and judging the world in response to those prayers.

John weeps with a desire to see the full redemption of humanity but knows this cannot happen if the scrolls are not opened. Enter Jesus, the slain Lamb full of power and knowledge, seated in front of the scroll…

John Vermilya // October 20, 2024 Some of the greatest lies from Satan are about heaven. He wants us to believe it will be boring, so that we will grasp onto everything we can in the present, and not live for the glorious eternal future that is promised.
