End of the Age

Revelation

Basically, Revelation is the prophecy of Jesus Christ telling the Church about the future of things and the judgment of the world and the anti-christ's counterfeit religious apostate system. The prophecy also covers the Millennium Kingdom and God's Final Eternal Earthly and Heavenly Kingdom. The prophecy is not chronological, it has flash backs from different perspectives. The time line once established may then be used to open the prophecy.

Chapters:

1-3 Covers the next 1,900 years of church history. And also can be seen as seven types of Church in existence today. And as the seven Churches in Asia Minor (Turkey) which were under the care of Apostle Paul in the first century. There is much excellent doctrine here for our growth today. (Rev. 3:5 deals with one of the basic Evangelical sacred cows along with Heb.10:26-31).

4-5 The glory of Jesus Christ in His Throne as seen by John in Heaven. These passages include a type of the translation or rapture of the Church. (1 Thess. 4:13,  II Thess. 2).

6   An important time-line chapter covering the seven year rule and defeat of the Antichrist in four installments.

White horse (peace) Antichrist comes to power in a peace  movement. (Prior to the Rapture, the world will be at peace).

Red horse (war) makes war on those who do not submit to the rule of the Antichrist.  The Common Market may be the precursor for this identity.

Black horse (slavery), World is sold into economic slavery at this time. The Antichrist will totally control buying and selling. 666 as His mark could be a computer chip that may be placed under the skin for a cashless society as a triple 6 digit bar code.

Gray horse (judgment & death), brings the Great Tribulation to a close with Christ Jesus as the victor and as the true Prince of Peace and King of Kings, (Rev. 19:11-21)   at the great battle of Armageddon, {Rev.16:16) It appears that the stage is being set for this battle in the near future.

12 Another type of the Rapture of the Church. This chapter also presents another time-line chapter of the seven years of judgment and the last of the Jewish persecutions. The Chapter includes the final expulsion of Lucifer from the realm of the Heavenlies by the Bride of Christ and the Holy Angels of God three and one-half years into the Great Tribulation.

13-16 Chapters on the general judgments at the end of the Great Tribulation.

17-18 Chapters on the final judgment and destruction of the world's religious counterfeit system, 'Babylon is fallen".

19 Final Victory of the King and the Marriage of the Lamb.

20 The Sabbath Rest of the Lord, 1,000 years as the earth is returned to being a garden like Eden. After the thousand years, the final battle and judgement of Lucifer and his followers will come. His armies will gather from all the worlds rebellious for the final test of the rule for planet Earth. After The Lord's victory at this battle, time will cease to exist as a meaningful point of reference. Time only has meaning today due to death. Death will be no more exist on earth. 

21-22 The 7,000 years of God's testing for the Saints is finally over. God creates a new heaven and a new earth in righteousness. The former things are passed away and time shall be no more and "The Lamb is the light thereof."

Many books could be and have been written on this subject and still not cover the subject very well. Obviously this is just a very short outline. Perhaps I will have more time to go into details if there is a second edition. Please remember no one knows when the 6,000 year count down began. The Jewish calendar says we still have many years left, I don't personally think so. The end time signs are now upon us . . ."When they shall say "Peace and safety . . . ," (1 Thess.5:3).

The main warning is to be ready for He will come when we least expect Him.
