Hey everyone just a quick reminder that Dr. Tim Jenny will be teaching tomorrow night at Xtreme Ministries at 7:30 PM. Dont miss this opportunity to hear this awesome and pratical explanation of Revelation. Here is an excerpt from his commentary found in the Full Life Bible Commentary.
"Many people have observed that the Fourth Gospel contains no apocalyptic eschatology (unlike the Synoptics) and none of Jesus' extensive teachings on his return (e.g. Matt. 24-25; Mark 13; Luke 17). Instead, it emphasizes how to live the Christian life on earth. In our opinion, this is also the message of Revelation: how to live like a Christian and how to die like one. Its apocalyptic language and imagery are only the vehicle, not the message. Its message is prophetic, and very little of it was actually futuristic. John reminds his audience that God shares in their suffering and promises to deliver them soon. In the meantime, they are to strive to be 'faithful witnesses' and to worship the real King of kings and Lord of lords...People want to know something about the future, Christians no less than others. Unfortunately, many Christians have tried to forces answers from Revelation it was never designed to gie. It was written to teach us how to live for God in the present, not to provide raw material for idle speculation about the future. We will earn far more if we let this book shape our agenda, rather than forcing it to submit to ours. (Full Life Bible Commentary 1535,1542)."
