Key Verse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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<\/em> by his angel unto his servant John:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Revelation 1:1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Verse Thought: <\/strong>Have you ever read the book of Revelation? Why or why not? Have you ever heard that it is too hard to understand? Read the Key Verse. Revelation<\/strong> means \u201cuncovering; unveiling; disclosure; spoken of future events<\/em>.\u201d We are to understand that the book of Revelation is not meant to be difficult or even mysterious. The name itself declares that the book is a time of \u201cdisclosure of future events.\u201d In this lesson, we will learn what Jesus told his servant, John.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emphasis: <\/strong>We are to understand that the book of Revelation is not to be a mystery, for Jesus told His people what would come to pass. It is important for Christians to remember that all of Scripture is to be read and studied, for it is instructional to us, helping us become \u201cthroughly furnished unto all good works<\/strong>\u201d (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lesson Summary: <\/strong>The book of Revelation is just what it says it is in the first verse. \u201cThe 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<\/em> by his angel unto his servant John<\/strong>\u201d (Revelation 1:1). Jesus revealed to John things to record for Christians to know and understand about things that had already happened and even future events. It not only tells of the differing church ages, but it tells of the second coming of Jesus and the impact that will have upon all of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of the volume of the book, we will go back to our overview approach as we study it. We will see the importance of knowing what is found within the book of Revelation. The church ages are described (see Revelation 2\u20133), as well as the rapture of the church (Revelation 4:1-2). The events that unfold after the church is removed (the Great Tribulation) is depicted in Revelation 6\u201322; first from earth\u2019s perspective (see chapters 6-11), and then from heaven\u2019s perspective (see chapters 13-19). There are \u201cSeven Seals\u201d (later called \u201cSeven Vials\u201d in heaven\u2019s perspective), \u201cSeven Trumpets\u201d, and \u201cSeven Thunders\u201d. The two beasts will be revealed as they set about to deceive the nations. We will catch a glimpse of Satan\u2019s banishment from heaven when he was cast down to the earth after a battle with Michael and his angels (see Revelation 12). The final demise of Satan will be revealed, as well as the reign of Christ for 1,000 years. At that point there will be the judgment of all of mankind as they stand before the great white throne \u2013 each being judged according to their works (see especially Revelation 20:15: \u201cAnd whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire<\/strong>\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, we will conclude our study comparing things lost in Genesis, to things that will be restored as it is declared in Revelation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
