The Churches, Section 1 of The Book of Revelation Video series
This is an examination of the "churches" of Revelation 2 and Revelation 3 , and that in fact they are NOT the Body of Christ. But future assemblies of Jewish believers that will be HERE after The Harpazo, after the Church has been caught up to meet The LORD in the air. The letters to these assemblies, when read carefully, differ immensely from the Pauline epistles. The Revelation Epistles are addressed to servants and speak of works and judgment, while the Pauline Epistles are addressed to SONS and Daughters and speak of our standing IN Christ, as His Body, by GRACE. And it was to PAUL, not the 12 Apostles that the Mystery was shown and explained.
Therefore, The Ecclesia, The Church, is the BODY of Christ, and cannot be Israel, or the Wife, or The Bride. For we are part of the BrideGROOM. We are IN Christ. This is the MYSTERY that was withheld, and hid IN God, from ALL of the prophets, and revealed to Paul. We are even NOW forever connected to the GROOM, IN Christ and He in us.

The Scroll with 7 Seals, Section 2 of The Book of Revelation Video series
The Seals, which we find in The Book of Revelation 5:1-8:6 , we believe, based on the events resulting from the breaking of the sixth, Revelation 6:12 , are a summary of ALL the Divine judgments which will usher in the Day of the LORD: including the whole of "The Tribulation," and leading up to the End — the last "seven years," and "the great day of His wrath." Therefore, they cover the whole period in broad outline.
Now this is very important. There is every reason to believe that "the Day of the LORD" will be a prolonged period. It must not be limited or confined to "seven years," as everyone thinks. As we went over EXTENSIVELY in our series: Section 1: the Churches. The time between the coming forth of the LORD to Snatch-up (Harpazo), and meet His Church IN THE AIR, and His coming unto the Earth WITH His Church, in power and great glory, we believe, could very well correspond to the thirty-three years between His coming forth at Bethlehem, as we read in Micah 5:2 , and His coming unto Jerusalem as we read in Zechariah 9:9 . All the events between Micah 5:2 and Zechariah 9:9 we speak of as constituting His "first coming." In like manner, all the events described in The Book of Revelation, which take place between His coming "for" and His coming "with" His Church, we also can speak of as "His second coming" or "the Day of the LORD."

7 Trumpets, 3 Woes, and 7 Vials, Section 3 of The Book of Revelation Video series
What I want you all to see is that the whole of this great judgment period, covered by the Trumpets and Vials, is given in two pairs of alternate Visions of events "in Heaven" and "on Earth." First we have the 2nd Vision "in Heaven" (Revelation 8:1-6 ) consisting of the Opening of the Seventh Seal. Then we have the 2nd Vision "on Earth" (Revelation 8:7-11:14 ) which shows the effects of this opening, which the scripture goes on to tell us are the first Six Trumpets.
Next we have the 3rd Vision "in Heaven" (Revelation 11:15-19 ) consisting of the Sounding of the Seventh Trumpet. Then the 3rd Vision "on Earth" (Revelation 11:19 ) consisting of the effects of this sounding.
Now follow me on this...we are then, in Revelation 12 , taken back to a time prior to Revelation 4 . At this point the sequence of the Trumpet and Vial judgments is broken in order to insert this parenthetical break, and give us the additional information. The Trumpet and Vial judgments are continuous once they begin. It is only the description of them which is interrupted, in order to allow the necessary information to be given which shows the necessity for them. This digression begins at Revelation 12:1 and is carried on to Revelation 15:8 .
Then the description of the Vial Judgments is taken up and continued, giving the results "on Earth" of the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet. These Vial Judgments are then continuous from Revelation 16:1 through Revelation 18:24 , which ends their mission, accomplishes their object, and issues in the Revelation of the LORD Jesus Christ, from Heaven in power and great Glory as we then see in Revelation 19 .
We pray that this coming series will edify and richly bless you, as you grow in the Grace and Knowledge of our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.

The Great Conflict: The Woman and The Dragon, Section 4 of The Book of Revelation Video series
In "The Great Conflict: The Woman and The Dragon", Section 4 of The Book of Revelation Video Series, we come, not only to the great central subject of the whole Book of Revelation, but to the central pair of the Seven Visions, and to the actual literary center of the whole Book.
This shows us that we are on the threshold of a very important part of Scripture which relates to the actual Revelation or Unveiling of the glorious Person of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The whole section of Scripture that we cover in Section 4, Revelation 12-15 , is not only episodal in subject and parenthetical in form, but is a good example of historical, or, rather, prophetic hysterologia (a form of hyperbaton by which the events, though written down later, took place earlier than those which immediately precede in historical narration). That is to say, that what we have in Revelation 12-15 is a prophetic record of events which will take place before Revelation 6 , and will lead up to, and run parallel with, what is recorded in Revelation 6 onward.
We pray that this series will edify and richly bless you, as you grow in the Grace and Knowledge of our Great God, LORD, and Savior Jesus Christ.

In Ephesians 1:13 the Holy Spirit through the Apostle Paul declares that men are saved and sealed by hearing and BELIEVING the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your Salvation. Therefore, here, now, is declared unto you the Word of Truth, the Gospel of your Salvation: "that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures"1 Corinthians 15:3-4 . BELIEVE today. The time is short.

Glory to God In The Highest. During the Tribulation, the 7 angles blowing the trumpets, where is the body of Christ? Does our spirit go into his body? There cannot be flesh in heaven. Four sets of saved people, chruch, bride, groom and the body of christ. Me and you and those who are saved by Grace on the earth today, they are the ones who will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air? Because we are forgiven our sins and beleive Jesus died for our sins on the cross and rose on the third day, we are saved from the Great Tribulation. I read somewhere that those who study the Book of Revalations will get a special reward for doing so, is that correct? I am greatful for giving to me the 15 episodes and the 11 episodes all at one time. I will listen to them without interruption each day, over and over until I fully know and fully understand each one . Learning the truth really is setting me free.
Christ is our Head, we are His Body. Where The LORD Jesus Christ is...there we are! We, The Body of Christ, are to be called home at the Rapture. Then the resumption of the Bride of Christ Church begins. When we return AFTER the Great Tribulation, there is the first resurrection of the members of the BRIDE. The Groom (Head and Body) marries the Bride, and the MArriage Supper begins and lasts for a 1000 years.
HELLO, SO YOU KNOW FOR SURE WE WILL GO THROUGH TRIBULATION? MOST PREACHERS TEACH WE ARE OUT OF HERE WAY BEFORE OR PRE TRIB . WHAT DO YOU BELEIVE THE WORD OF GOD TRULY TEACHS US?
I ABSOLUTELY do NOT believe that The Body of Christ will be here for the Day of The LORD, The GReat Tribulation. I believe that The Body of Christ is Taken out/Raptured/Harpazo'd before the Book of Revelation even opens. I believe that the Churches of Revelation 2-3 are the BRIDE of Christ Church which resumes after it had been temporarily set aside in Acts 28:28.
Pastor I love visiting these teachings again and again! Much to glean. I istened to Jr Church and Gary sterman discuss thetiming and I can't remember the timing and there research to base it on, but they felt the timing could be around 2038-2040. I think they also felt that events would transpire,develope in increments until the Great Trib/Jacobs Trouble and then that period would be the 7yrs. I'd have to go to site and listen to exact thoughts, but that's what I recollect of it.
Hawaihi: I would like to purchase the DVD's of your Revelation series, how can I achieve this? I have been unable to find anywhere on your site to make this purchase, please help.
