Bible Note: Some observations on the material presented by www.revelationcommentary.com: This web site is presented by the same people as Sola Group It did not take me long to notice numerous errors as I read this material. Please be advised to compare anything you read with scripture. Always study scripture for yourself, turning to commentators only to supplament your own individual study. Them “””Revelation 1:19 "Write therefore (1) the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall take place after these things. 1. A possible key to understanding the composition of the book of Revelation. The things...have seen - Christ the revelator in chapter one. The things...are - seven churches in chapter two and three. The things...shall take place...- in chapters 4-22 However, this outline is overly simplistic and has very little exegetical support. This is particularly the case when one realizes that there is no time difference between the vision of Christ in chapter one of the Revelation and the events of chapters two and three. 2. One must be careful at this point not to push the significance of this outline too far. The significance of the relationship of the church to Revelation 4-22 cannot be determined simply by recognizing the absence of the term church from these critical chapters. The absence of the term church from the Old Testament certainly does not mean that there is no applicable value for the church in the Old Testament.””” Me The outline is so simple anyone can follow it. The words are few and clear and plainly understood, and are reinforced later in the book, in 4:1, and in 7:1. The claim that this statement has “very little exegetical support” is without foundation. The outline is the guideline for understanding this book. Ignore it to your own detriment. The Church is not mentioned in the Old Testament because the Church did not exist in the Old Testament. The Old Testament time is the time of Israel. The Church is not mentioned in the scriptures of the 70th week because the Church is not on the earth after the beginning of the 70th week. 2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. |
