Salvation of the LORD

Image
Jesus means ‘Yahweh saves.’ In the man from Nazareth, the Salvation promised by the God of Israel has arrived in all its glory . The angel informed Joseph that the child borne by Mary was “ begotten of the Holy Spirit .” He instructed Joseph to name the child ‘Jesus’ - “ Call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins .” This name pointed to the saving act of God for humanity that He was about to reveal to the world. The world would behold the long-promised “ Salvation of Yahweh ” in Jesus of Nazareth.

The Age of Salvation

Image
The Good News announced by Jesus Christ offers salvation and life to men and women of every nation and people . After his resurrection, Jesus declared: “ All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me, therefore, go and make disciples of all nations !” He then dispatched his disciples to announce his Lordship and Salvation to the “ ends of the Earth .” The Era of Salvation commenced with his Death and Resurrection; therefore, his life-giving message must be announced to all men. The Son of God has achieved salvation for his people!

The Absent Church?

Image
Revelation is a message to the Church concerned with its real-life situation as it bears witness in a hostile world – Revelation 4:1-3. After Jesus dictated his letters to the “ Seven Assemblies of Asia ,” John saw an “ open door in Heaven ,” and he heard the voice from his first vision summoning him to “ come up here .” Next, he was standing before the “ Throne sitting in Heaven .” Does this image symbolize the physical removal of the Church from the Earth before the subsequent visions of the Book, the so-called ‘Rapture of the Saints’?

Global Dominion

Image
There are no geographic restrictions on the reign of the “ Beast ” in the Book of Revelation . All the “ Inhabitants of the Earth ” bow to its “ image .” It is granted “ authority over every tribe, people, tongue, and nation .” Contrary to some popular claims, there will be no “holdout nation” to resist its beastly reign. Only the followers of Jesus  refuse its demands .

The Beast from the Sea

Image
The “ Dragon ” was poised to attack the “ Seed of the Woman ” as he stood on the seashore summoning his “seed,” the “ Beast from the Sea ” and the “ Beast from the Earth .” Having failed to destroy the Messianic “ Son ” and the “ Woman ,” he set out to annihilate her “ Seed ,” the men who had the “ Testimony of Jesus .”
