    Revelation 10: Concluding thoughts

    Therefore; there is no more holding back judgment (See Jeremiah 15:1 for example). The "plumbline" is drawn ( Amos 7:7-9).

    There is a distinct time frame where God says "enough" and Christ is set free with the righteous angels to procure judgment.

    We see in the following chapters that in fact He uses Satan by giving him what he always wanted; control over the entire world.

    Geographically; he doesn't gain all the territory; but surely with technology and his minions can enforce his mark worldwide through the 10 nations or regional confederacy that rule with him for "one hour". ( Rev. 17:12). It is an interesting sidenote; which I pointed out before about some who fight in the Ezekiel 38 war AGAINST Antichrist. Since one sixth survive it is possible that they did NOT recieve the mark of the Beast and have a chance at surviving into othe Millenium. In Isaiah 49:23 we see kings and queens being "nursing fathers" and mothers as it were (part of that obviously symbolic). In Jeremiah 31:16-17 we see further confirmation of this. This isn't the main point of the passage; but it shows how God may use captivity and even kidnapping to ultimately preserve the lives of children into the Millennium; the alternative being killed in Israel by Antichrist.

    We need to see several larger themes here. God is using all this so that FINALLY as Christ is returning the nation will repent; and that in weeping. (see Zechariah 12:12). It seems hard to believe that the nations get it in regard to Christ and God in the sixth seal; and Israel remains blind that long. Romans 11:25 sheds some light on this; in regard to the "fullness of the Gentiles" which could be indicative of the Church Age ending; complete with the Rapture/Resurrections discussed previously.

    Altogether; He uses Satan's own planning to draw men to the snare and trap of Armageddon where things come to a swift conclusion. No more delay can occur or no flesh would live ( Matt. 24:22
  • Richard H Priday on Revelation 10 - 2 years ago
    Revelation 10

    There is; no doubt an air of mystery (with a literal use of that word in verse 7 explaining the concept of "time no longer" in verse 6.). Given that we still have literal sequential fulfillments to come; surely it doesn't mean that the law of physics related to time and space are no longer in effect. The 1000 year reign to come surely verifies that fact. The most common explanation is that there is no longer any DELAY for these events to happen (see also Habukkuk 2:3).

    The "mystery" here has been explained as the end of the church age; or the Rapture of the Church. I would say that it is better explained as the end of the "firstfruits" that are translated from the earth which actually began with Christ Himself; and a portion that came out of their graves after the Resurrection; those raptured and resurrected before the first seal; the 144,000 and the 2 witnesses. This could include the great multitude martyred who no man can count either. Whether some of these martyrs are lukewarm of the church left behind to be tested doesn't need to be argued here. The basic point is that there are faithful of both the Church Age and after (in the case of the O.T. saints another "dispensation" as it were. It is good not to be too bogged down with dispensational time boundaries; we see those saved by grace throughout history.

    What we do see in the next few chapters is a shift to the religious and political nations and the Antichrist directly. Clearly some are hidden; and make it to the 2nd Coming. Once the 2 Prophets are martyred there is no more room for witnessing; and in fact God uses angels to preach as men are greatly scattered and no doubt barely can speak out against Satan's man as the beheadings ramp way up. God hiding His people in the wilderness shows that flight is the best option; and God's Word backs that up. We also notice once we get to the Bowl judgments that no man is able to enter in the Temple in heaven to pray ( Rev. 15:8)

    Luke we are living in this world simply b/c the Kingdoms of this world are gonna become the Kingdoms of our lord and his Christ...Revelations 11:15...The Kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdoms of our lord and his Christ and he shall reign for ever and ever....But the Kingdom does not come till the woman births the manchild which is the H.G. THE Children of Promise...That are gonna become as the stars of heaven in multitudes...The Kingdom does not come till the Woman has given birth to the manchild the spirit of truth...Rev.12:10 kjv

Isaiah 9:6 kjv....An Israel of God...That was the great Promise that Christ wd be multiliplied as the stars of heaven...Thus the sower and his seed sown in the heats of humanity...ok lemme go...Unless you receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in no wise enter there in....ok Gbu Luke

    Ed. The answer to your question is yes and the proof is king David had Urriah

    Bathsheba's Husband murdered. Now he paid for the sin by losing the child but

    God says He still was a man after His own Heart.

    How does Jesus use the immediate examples to explain the kingdom!

    When walking through the gates, into the city, describing the needle that the camels go through , we see Him while He is walking and talking to His disciples. As if He see's us who will soon be reading His words! The majesty of His eternal presence found in His words of God. If we seek out the truths that are in it, it becomes a well of water, springing up into eternal life, it just keeps flowing.

    With the evidence of who God is, it can be difficult if we depend on ourselves expecting God too do what we expect and want. "With man it is impossible, but with God all things are possible!"

    Our flesh constantly looking for or asking another question, that is outside His spirit that must dwell in us. This indwelling miracle, must come from Him, this is the grace found in Him!

    Can you see Him walking and talking too you as He turns the next corner?

    Remember all things are possible with God! Trust in Him always, waiting and watching!

    Repent and be Baptized

    Hello Oakley....There has to be an intimacy with Jesus and a seed has to be sown in our hearts....Thats y he has to KNOW us..There cannot be a heavenly birth without an intimacy....He wants to KNOW us...Thats y the sower wants to sow his precious seed in our hearts ....That a Child might be born in us...Which is the H.G. the Child of Promise....As that which is born of the spirit is spirit which is the H.G. our new heart and new spirit...our new innerman....The Kingdom....Unless ya receive the Kingdom of God as a lil Child you will in NO wise enter there in....He had to breathe on them b/f they cd receive the H.G....His breath was his Words his Seeds an intimacy...If he does not know us there will be no fruit unto God as Romans 7:4 says

    ......Thats y they refer to the H.G. as the Promise,..Simply b/c the H.G. is the multiplication of Christ Jesus via his seed sown in our hearts...The babes and sucklings he mentions which is the H.G. that has to be born in us via his seed..The living WORD.

    .....Remember HANNAH ...Said for this Child i prayed and God has granted me my petition....Pray for the gift of the H.G. the Child of PROMISE....Peter was saying being bornagain of an incoruptible seed even by the Words of God that liveth and abideth forever.. 1st Peter 1:23.....And only Jesus can sow that precious seed in our hearts....ok GBU

    Uh! The (angels)(celestial bodies)came in unto the (daughters) (of men), and they (bare children) to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown, doesn't do it for ya?
  • Mamie - In Reply on Colossians 2 - 2 years ago
    If you have to ask the answer is no. Baptism doesn't save ,it is the outward show that you have repented of your sins and are following Jesus Christ, My experience was a soul cleansing, it was physical ,it was a washing , after I felt a burden had been lifted .True repentance is needed for salvation,Jesus wants us to acknowledge our wrong ,our sin when we are truly sorrowful he will hear our prayers and redeem us.

  • Cindy - In Reply on Psalms 10 - 2 years ago
    God always answers prayer. Always. It may not be what we ask for--or when we ask for Him to grant it--because He knows what we need and when we need it better than we do. Continue to pray and wait upon the Lord. He will not fail you. 1 John 5:14 - And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:

    God bless!
  • Cindy - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Dear Ruben, God will restore you to His will. All you have to do is ask Him to forgive you and repent from your backsliding ways with His help. Psalms 139:23, 24 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

    Pray, read and study His Word, asking Him to show you how to walk. Psalm 25:4 Show me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.

    Here is the fruit of the Spirit that true Christians bear with the help of God. Galatians 5:22-24 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

    This prayer will help with what you are going through with the devil:

    Father, please give me wisdom, strength, and determination to stand in the battle raging

    about me. Help me use all the armor and weapons You have given me to their fullest extent. 2 Corinthians 10:3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

    God bless!

  • Luke - Power Over Serpents & Scorpians - 2 years ago
    Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven

    19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (Seal of God) = TRUTH

    20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

    21 In (that hour) Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

    Revelation 9 IN THAT HOUR

    3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

    4 And it was commanded them in order that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing,

    neither any tree; but ... those men which have not the seal of God upon their foreheads.

    If you have the seal = truth, these ScorpiOns are commanded/by GOD to NOT hurt you during (THAT HOUR).
  • Luke - Hour of Temptation - 2 years ago
    Tempted above what ye may be able to bear.

    Revelation 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon (all the world), to try them that dwell upon the earth.

    11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

    12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

    Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

    11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death

    Too bad this gets Misinterpreted:
  • Luke - Temptation - 2 years ago
    1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

    No,

    1 John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

    Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill.

    11 But if any man hate his neighbour, and lie in wait for him, and rise up against him, and take his life that he die, and fleeth into one of these cities:

    12 Then the elders of his city shall send and fetch him thence, and deliver him into the hand of the kinsman avenger of murder, that he may die.
