Dove Point Bible Study

This week we begin to look at the opening of the Book, as in who is worthy to break the seals, and also the breaking of the seals - and the pouring out of the vials. You should be able to start getting a look at where we are now, in your mind.

This weeks' lecture finishes the mini-series within our study of Revelation which has been about judging the seven churches, then and now; the church at Laodicia is the last church in this list. As Chapter 4 starts, so does John's vision. We're glad you're along for the ride!

This week we look at three more churches: Thyatira, Sardis, and Philadelphia. One of them rounds out the list of two churches that Christ was (and is) pleased with....

This week "he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks" begins to judge and "dress down" the seven churches - and what he says can be applied to right now. Be sure and pay extra close attention when we get to verse 9...

Have you ever read parts of the book of Revelation and thought to yourself "what the heck does THAT mean?" Or, "I hope I NEVER see a creature like that one!!" Or maybe you heard it taught by some well-meaning preacher somewhere, and came away more confused or with no more understanding of Gods' plan for these times than you had when he started? And yet the name Revelation, in the Greek (apokalypsis), means "a disclosure of truth; laying bare; be revealed"? God meant for us to know what was going to happen so we could be forearmed for the battle to come. Good news! The seals on the books have been broken, and you can have understanding of this amazing prophecy given to John all those centuries ago. If you want to be guided through this book by a true teacher of the word with no agenda other than getting the truth to you, you are in the right place. Here in these YouTube videos we will be presenting lessons on the book of Revelation, starting with chapter one and verse one, and going through to the end. May the God of all minister to you and reveal to you His truth through these teachings, and place His seal in your forehead in preparation for the days that are at hand. "The truth is out there", and you may find that it is different than what you have been taught so far.

...and just like that, we're done!! Sixty-five lectures, one posted each week, and now you have a most excellent study of the entire book of Revelation at your disposal! It's been a great ride, and we hope you took it with us. Now, you can repeat your study as often as you like, because believe me there is no way you got all the information the first time through. Here's how: Scroll to the bottom, click on page 3, and all the lectures are lined up in reverse (in the order they were posted). Pick one, listen at your leisure, then move on to the next. The one with this text you are reading is the last one. Go ahead, cheat and listen to how it ends!! (Just kidding). God bless you, seal you, and keep you till we meet sometime; then you can tell me all about what you learned! From all of us at Dove Point Bible Study: Shalom!!

...you are gonna enjoy this one...

...So, let's take a look around our soon-to-be eternal home, shall we?

Well, here we are. Almost to the end of our study. Only three lectures left after this one! We sincerely hope you have enjoyed it, and, most of all, that you have gotten a good overview of the entire bible, and and a good understanding of God's plan for this "earth age". This week talks about the renewal of all things....and three weddings (?).

It's forgetting' time. Time to leave it all behind. Wait 'till you hear what "blotted out" really means. **(EDITOR'S NOTE: the audio is PRETTY bad on this episode, as we had some technical difficulties while recording that weren't discovered until after the lecture was over. We felt the content was important though, so we cleaned it up as best we could. Listen close, you can still get the teaching out of it.)

Get your first peek at the new heaven and the new Earth!!

To me, the most important part of this lecture is learning what we are to do till this time comes...

It turns out that, even after all that, Satan gets one more shot at deceiving SOME people.....

Now that everything is winding down, did you ever wonder what we will do next, right after? Float around on a cloud and play a harp? Nope! The period immediately following is referred to as the millennium, and here's what's gonna go down during this time period.

This week we re-visit the first four verses of Revelation 20 and add the fifth verse which deals with the first resurrection (you mean there is more than one?).

The bible talks about how we will be able to walk by the pit in which Satan is imprisoned, look at him, and say to ourselves: "...so THIS is what gave us so much trouble all these years?". In our lecture this week that time is described; oh yeah - and a time of testing for us is about to begin....

At last, He returns. The flesh age is over.

Have you ever heard someone talk about being "called" to do something for God? Well, this week you can learn what that means. Plus, the return of Jesus as King, with His armies.

Wow! Do me a favor and go back and read that title again...quite a claim, right? And yet here it is: man's entire history in the flesh, in one short lecture. Plus, the stage is set, and events are unfolding right before our eyes as the time is now right for Jesus' return to the planet. Enjoy!!

Thankfully, nothing lasts forever, and in this weeks' lecture Babylon's reign of oppression and deception is finally over.
