Explaining promised fulfillments grants Christian Saints the required authority, however the lacking Christian Authority confuses Christian Testimony making the Christian Testimony appear superficial, inadequate, and ineffective.

Opponents of the Cross of God utilize Christian Inexperience to alter the edifying provided by Christian Saints, this produces confusion, and by producing confusion the Opponents of Christian Saints devise opportunities and using opportunities they mislead puzzled individuals. understanding Revelation, Manifestation, Dreams, Visions, Parables, and Parallels provides understanding, hope, and leadership in answering why, how and when we live, reveals effectiveness and imperfections of Christian Saints, guides Christian Saints to development, that exposes the foes of the Cross of God.

The Testimony of Jesus declares His identity, sovereignty, resurrection, and creation, plus the Biblical Story reveals different groups of Saints giving reasons for the personal testimonies of Christian Saints. Christian Saints also receive explanations for the Book of Life, Tribulation, Warfare, Judgment, the Final End of Evil, and more. By becoming willing, honest, tolerant, humble, and taking action by accepting the information given by God through Prayer, Meditation, and Fellowship Christian Saints become Free, Hopeful, Powerful, and Effective.

Revelation was given to John in visions as prophecies that had their beginnings in the Old Testament, being fulfilled in the New Testament and yet much to be fulfilled in future events before the great and terrible day of the Lords return.

Revelations is given to all nations and tongues that live throughout the whole world as in Jew and Gentile. Israel is mainly mentioned, but not all of Israel is Gods chosen people. Those who are washed in the blood of the Lamb are joined as a branch with Israel as God is the root of that branch and those who are sealed by His Holy Spirit are His own who find favor in Him, Romans 11:11-31. This is why our attention needs to be on those things that are happening in Israel especially Jerusalem as being Gods Holy City.

What you are about to read and have revealed to you in these revelations are those things that are yet future compared with that of the past. It has always been kingdom against kingdom and nation against nation. There are only two kingdoms as one is Gods kingdom that is taught in all truths through Gods Holy Spirit and the other a ruling kingdom of Satan who uses a Jezebel spirit that speaks a deceptive word to deceive the nations, Revelation 2:20.

Revelations is full of symbolism that is literal where it needs to be and Spiritual where it needs to define that of the literal. These revelations are given as a warning to those who have yet to accept Jesus as Messiah. Gods chastisements are to draw those back to him in repentance before that door of salvation is closed forever when Jesus returns and Gods true Church is gathered up to be with the Father forever.

The focus in Revelations would seem to center around Israel only and the nations that come against her for this is how John would recognize it to be since all other nations were not yet developed in his time. Revelations is about all of us, Jew and Gentile, past, present and future that by faith keep Gods commandments. We are Gods witnesses that testify of His mercy and grace as we take His word out into the world to those who have ears to hear.

● Rev 1:1-3 . . The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his
servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his
servant John, who testifies to everything he saw-- that is: the word of God and the
testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy,
and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because
the time is imminent.

Nobody knows the exact day nor hour of Jesus' return to establish the theocratic
kingdom discussed in the old testament, but the events depicted in the book of
Revelation will serve as early warnings to alert folks that the time has come-- sort
of like the act-by-act synopses used by folks interested in operas like La Bohème,
Hamlet, Madam Butterfly, Porgy and Bess, South Pacific, and Don Giovanni.

If folks stuck in the tribulation era use Revelation like that; they'll have a pretty
good idea when to expect Jesus' arrival; and begin preparing themselves for it. Plus
those in the know can be of real service to folks baffled by the rather unusual
calamities taking place all 'round world. A number of them will so frightened that
they'll die of heart attacks. (Luke 21:26)

● 2Pet 1:20-21 . . Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any
private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man:
but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Beware allowing that passage to persuade one's self to avoid digging into prophecy
because it's not talking about the study of prophecy, rather, it's talking about the
prophets themselves, viz: about the origin of their prophecy rather than any
particular reader's understanding of their prophecy.

In other words: the sayings of the prophets weren't produced by human reasoning
and a fertile imagination. No, they channeled their sayings directly from the top.

"men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit."

For example:

● Gal 1:11-12 . . I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel I preached is not
something that man made up. I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught
it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

Anyway, my point is: we must be ever wary of folks who attempt to employ 2Pet
1:20-21 in their on-going effort to dissuade folks from personally examining
Revelation for themselves and coming to their own conclusions because Jesus wants
the final book of the Bible to be read and remembered rather than be set aside.

Rev 1:1-3 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: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. 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.

God gave these revelations to Jesus first and then he passed it onto John through a ministering angel through visions as God reveals those things that have to come to pass before the return of Jesus. The revelations are for the Church in John’s time plus every generation from that time on until Jesus returns in the air to gather up his Bride to the clouds as they receive their new glorified bodies and meet Jesus in the air, 1Corinthians 15:5-58; 1Thessalonians 4:13-18.

Is there truly anything of the word of God that is to hard for us to understand, no. If we are allowing the Holy Spirit to teach us then we know we are being taught truth, 1John 4:1-6. We have to learn to Spiritually discern that which we are being taught whether we are receiving truth or error.
