Studies in Prophecy
Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; (Rev 1:19 KJV)
The book of Revelation has three distinct sections: past, present, and future. The key that shows these sections is Revelation 1:19, which provides a simple outline of the book and a pattern of interpretation.
Learn MoreThe book of Revelation is a message from Jesus to the Church concerning the end time. It was written by the Apostle John as he was on the Isle of Patmos around 95 A.D. Jesus came to him in a vision and showed him things concerning the end of human history. It is a type of writing known as apocalyptic (unveiling something hidden, futuristic). The major themes include the Seven Churches in Asia, the Rapture of the Church, the Great Tribulation, the Second Coming of Jesus, the Millennium Kingdom, the final judgment, and New Jerusalem.

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. (2Th 2:1-2 KJV)
If they were in the last days, we are even closer to the end. Could 2012 be the beginning of the end? Definitely, but not because it’s 2012. The year 2012 has nothing to do with it. Only God knows when the end will be, but He has given us signs to know we are living in the end times.

Creation and the Second Coming is unique among both Creation and Prophecy genre’s in that it shows how the two are intertwined. Morris shows from Scripture that in order to understand the end-times you must understand the beginning.
