Lukewarmism In Revelation 3

The purpose of this paper is to research and analyze the preterist and futurist views of interpreting the Book of Revelation and determine which view provides the most accurate Biblical interpretation. As Richard L. Mayhue states, the "word 'preterist' comes from the Latin term praeteritus which basically means 'past' in regard to time." A preterist interpretation of the Book of Revelation, therefore, asserts that incidents described therein have already come to pass. A futurist interpretation, on the other hand, suggests the opposite namely, that Revelation is a prophecy of things to come.

Luke was a medical doctor, a missionary, and evangelist, a historian, a researcher, and the writer of the third Gospel. The book of Luke was written in a formal literacy introduction noting his purpose in writing, his methodology, and the attempts others had made in such writing. Luke is the author of the book and it was written in AD 60 in Caesarea. According to Hindson and Elmer Luke’s purpose is to give “an orderly sequence” of the events about Christ’s birth, life, and sacrificial death followed by his resurrection and ascension back to heaven. The occasion calling for Luke to write his Gospel was that Theophilus, and other new believers like him, needed a clear account of the life and ministry of Jesus as an aid to confirm his faith

The book of Hebrews was written by a Christian scholar and not by one of the Gospels. I knew that many authors made up the New Testament but I did not know scholars wrote some books a well. Hebrews writer was someone who linked the Hebrew Bible along with Greek philosophy. The writer never identifies himself but his views on the end times were very strong. He assumes that there is an existence of two parallel worlds: the eternal and the perfect realm of spirits. This is something that I have never heard before. This writer is the only person to speak of Jesus as the mediator between God and humanity. He has so much insight on what was happening or what was to happen but we do not know who this person was. Hebrew is written very differently and some of the

Who are the witnesses of Revelation 11? What is there importance? There are multiple theories on who these witness are. One of the most popular theories is that it will be Elijah and Enoch because they were taken away by God before their death.(2 Kings 2:11; Genesis 5:24; Hebrews 11:5) Others believe that it will be Moses, who turned water to blood and sent other plagues on Egypt, and Elijah because he stopped the rain in Israel for 3 1/2 years. (Exodus 7-12; 1 Kings 17:1) Another theory believes that the two witnesses are the two houses of Israel. Finally, another theory is that these two witnesses will be completely new. All of these have different twists and use scripture to back them up. However, almost everyone believes their importance in the end times because it is pretty clearly stated in the Bible. (Revelation 11: 1-14)

In Luke 1-6, it started out with God sending an angle to the virgin Mary and the angel foretold her that she will give birth to a son and she will name him Jesus and he will be the son of God. Then Joseph traveled to Nazareth in Galilee to Judea then to Bethlehem, the town of David to be with Mary and to deliver the son of the lord and once the baby was born, Joseph and Mary present the baby in a temple at Jerusalem to present the baby to God. John then starts to baptize the crowd and he prepares the way to whom is seeking wisdom from the holy spirit, as John baptized many civilians he refused to baptize Herod the tetrarch because he has done many evil things in the past and for that, he locked up John in prison. With the holy spirit inside

The significance of the seven churches of Revelations 2-3, stands firm and is prevalent in todays churches. Jesus' presented written purposal to the churches which revealed their spiritual condition and the future events that would arise before the second coming of Christ. The letters to the seven churches Asia Minor came as a warning not only to the corporate church, but to individual l Christian as well. The letters were written for each to abide and take heed because there salvation was as stake. Revelation 2 and 3 provide researchers with a sample of churches that refledcts the character of of Jesus.

Revelation 14 starts out at Mount Zion, where there was the Lamb and the 144,000. The 144,000 were those who followed the Lord and were redeemed, so they were blameless. They started to sing a song that only they would possibly be able to know. Then, an angel flew over, saying, “God’s judgement has come.” Another one flew, saying, “Babylon the great city has fallen.” And yet another came overhead, saying “If anyone worships the beast, they are to drink the wrath of God and be tormented with fire.” In verse 14:13, it says, “Then I heard a voice from heaven say, ‘Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’ ‘Yes,’ says the Spirit, ‘they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them.’” Lastly, another angel said that the “hour to reap has come.”

as Gods Faithful and True Witness in Revelation chapter elevan verse seven, and continuing to say in Matthew chapter fifthteen. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. For he has put all things under his feet. But when he said all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. And when all things shall be subduded unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him who put all things under him, that God may be all in all) this mere biblical fact serves as proof to God's reincarnation in the body and mind of a man, the manifestation of Gods own creation where there is no sin commited by this sacred individual all dressed in red and

Revelation, then, does not record the origins of Satan. It is a heinous violation of every context pertaining to Revelation 12 to make it a reference to Satan’s “origin story.” The literary context shows that Revelation is a book of symbols, meaning that any literal interpretation must be carefully tested before accepting it. Both the immediate context of Revelation 12 and the remote context of the entire Bible show that Satan has no detailed origin story outside a few scant details about his character. The true context teaches Christians that they have overcome Satan and his power through their Savior, Jesus Christ.

Scriptures and Stats When reading the Gensis 18: 20-33 and the Revelation 3:14-22 the one I chose is Revelation 3:14-22 not because it was much shorter than the Gensis but even though it was shorter to meaning of the verses it much deeper to me. it because In Revelation 3:14-22, Christ warns and instructs us against the lukewarm effects of trusting in material wealth rather than pursuing a vital faith relationship with Jesus Christ. The Laodicean church was a church that had lost its impact on the world because it had become occupied with the world and had left Christ standing outside the church.   Revelations 3:14-22 explains the importance of remaining not only faithful to God but also passionate. God knows your inner heart; he sees

This essay will argue that the eschatology of the Book of Revelation forms an integral part of John’s attempt within the pages of his book to form a literary world in which the forms, figures, and forces of the earthly realm are critiqued and unmasked through the re-focalization of existence from the perspective of heaven. It will attempt to show that, in response to the social, political, religious, and economic circumstances of his readers, the Book of Revelation forms a counter imaginative reality. Through drawing upon an inaugurated sense of eschatology and evocative imagery, John is able to pull the reader in and show them the true face of the imperial world and consequences of its ideology, forcing the reader allegiance to fall

Revelation chapter 12 and verse 9 is enormously useful when dealing with Satan for it tells us in one verse the extent of his demonic character as identified by his names or titles i.e. old serpent, Devil, Satan as well as his fallen status “cast out”, his ruthless work to “deceive the nations”, his domain of operation “the earth” and his co-conspirators “his angels”. Here is the scripture, “And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” When we speak of Satan, the enemy of God and by definition the enemy of all mankind, we are speaking of a powerful adversary who has the ability to wreck havoc on earth

To start this off, I don’t know much about the New Testament but I can name a few specifics. For instance, the first four books of the New Testament are all the same story just different perspectives. I know that the book of Revelation is a story of the end of times, written by John. However, Jesus was speaking through John, as he wrote the book. I know that Jesus was born of a virgin, named Mary. Jesus, before his time, had performed his first miracle of turning water into wine. By the age of thirteen, John the Baptist had baptized him. From that moment on, Jesus was now the man he was called to be, our Savior. I know that Jesus traveled through the Middle East, to more place than we know, performing miracles, such as, healing a leper, making

The book of Revelation was written by the apostle John, in an apocalyptic literature style. It consists of a series of prophecies about the end times, when Jesus will return and triumph over all the evil residing in the world. Its purpose is to bring hope and encouragement to Christians so that they will continue watching for the return and victory of Jesus Christ, but it is also a warning of the Final Judgment that nonbelievers will endure. The depiction of the cosmic battle that takes place both in heaven and on earth, symbolic language, and introduction of surreal

intensity of their commenting, and so forth, went. It was a sin for them to choose to do so without being sure if it was a sin or not, in the first place. We are now moving on to a Bible study of Revelation Chapter 8. I did the thirteen verses study with Jesus, yet some of the holy angels were listening, and besides those holy chief princes, all the demons were listening also on the 16th and 17th of June in 2011. At any rate, I later found out more stuff over the years, and now Jesus is having me update the study a bit.
