THE BOOK OF REVELATION
The book of Revelation is one of the most powerful books in the Bible. The Apostle John, who actually saw Jesus crucified, wrote it while he was a prisoner on the Island of Patmos. Want to see what happens when God lets loose His wrath? Read this book. It is scarier than any movie out there. It will put the fear of God into you. And here is the real scary part...it's all true and it is really going to happen! (God Loves you, and has given us a way of escape)!

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to that time as the Lord Jesus returns, and as He brings with Him His rewards He has for us- What a day that will be.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't help but really get into your message about Blessings. Thinking of how blessings are thought of today, which is so far removed from what the Bible says about blessings.
ReplyDeleteLooked like a nice get together. I have really liked your teaching this last few month that I have bible to get you.
ReplyDeleteIt really don't matter to me who's picture is on the $20.00 bill, in the last 7 years I've never had one to even look at. When I can once more have two or three I can call my own- I just live from day to day.
ReplyDeleteWhen we all get to Heaven...... what a wonderful day that will be!
