Eternity Future

Dennis McCallum

Revelation 20:6-22:21

The last piece of John's vision shows Satan being released from his prison. He spends his time deceiving people before being cast into the lake of fire eternally. Those who died are all before God, and he judges them according to their works or by Christ's death, depending on which book their name is in. The Book of Life contains the names of all the people who accepted Christ's death as their payment for sin. Everyone else joins Satan. John sees the new Heaven and Earth brought to life, and God dwells among the people who live there in eternal beauty and security.

A New Beginning

Scott Risley

Revelation 20:7-22:21

We look at end times events following the Millennial Kingdom including the destruction of Satan, the Great White Throne Judgement, and the creation of a physical new heaven and new earth. During the judgment, everyone - dead or alive - will have to answer to God for all of the deeds they have done on the earth. This time will either be a time of intense joy or intense sadness depending upon if you have accepted Jesus' sacrifice on the cross as a payment for your sins or if you are taking the wrath of God on yourself.

Dennis McCallum

Revelation 19:1-20:6

John's vision shows Heaven cheering at the defeat of Babylon. The triumph of Christ causes worship and celebration.

Jesus Returns!

Conrad Hilario

Revelation 19:1-20:6

Jesus is the suffering servant, but He is also the reigning king who judges justly. When He returns He will reign for 1000 years as king of the Earth. Christ's followers will experience a taste of what heaven will be like during his reign. Several views of the millennial kingdom are considered: historical, preterist, idealist, and futurist.

Finally

Scott Risley

Revelation 19:1-20:6

In the final days, the Church will finally be wed to Christ and there will be a wedding feast to celebrate. Jesus will return powerfully as a king; in stark contrast to his first coming. There will be an end to injustice once and for all as the Beast and the False Prophet are thrown into the fiery lake along with Satan. Jesus will then reign for a thousand years.

Mystery Babylon

Dennis McCallum

Revelation 17:1-18:24

John's vision continues with three "impure spirits" going into the world and gathering people for battle. Meanwhile, the seventh bowl is poured out, and natural disasters rip through the earth. God's wrath is unleashed on those who follow Satan and commit spiritual adultery. An angel explains the mystery of Babylon, walking John through the imagery used around her (Babylon): she presents a false unity and gets people to waste their lives and die. She will eventually fall, showing that the only lasting kind of unity is with God.

Fallen, Fallen is Babylon

Scott Risley

Revelation 16:13-19:7

The city of Babylon was defined in the Old Testament by greed, selfishness, violence, and idolatry. In the book of Revelation, Babylon has the same characteristics, along with being predicted to lead the rest of the world astray have a direct link with the Beast. Here, John identifies Babylon as both the World System (kosmos) and a harlot whose toxic ways we should avoid at all costs. He describes a day of justice when Babylon will be judged for their sins and be cast into the sea.

The Whore of Babylon

Conrad Hilario

Revelation 17-18

Babylon represents humanity rising up in rebellion against God. This rebellion is seen in 5 different venues: 1) spiritual adultery; 2) political power and world domination; 3) materialism; 4) opulence, hedonism, and pleasure; 5) hubris and the desire to find meaning apart from God.

The Seven Bowls

Dennis McCallum

Revelation 14:1-16:21

The next scene in John's vision describes proclamations of God's victory and of the judgment for those who rejected Him. Seven more angels from the Temple pour out the last of the plagues from the bowls they are given. The plagues cause catastrophe like never before, supremely illustrating the fact that living apart from God is always self-destructive.
