With all due respect, aren't you bringing HUGE presuppositions to the text? In your introduction you say John is trying to use first century language to write about things that were/are to happen in the twenty first century. How is that hermeneutically sound when in the first three verses the terms "soon to take place" and "the time is near" are in the text? John was saying the events were soon to take place and near in HIS generation, not ours. This is ignored, side-stepped, denied by so many dispensationalists. I used to be one so I understand. If we sincerely believe that Revelation is speaking of events that are all future to John's audience, the only conclusion is that those events had no relevance for his readers and hearers whatsover. We are completely ignoring the original audience and yet John says in the first three verses and throughout the letter, including ch. 22, that the events were immanent. The typical response is, "Well, they must have been because they haven't happened." If that's true, then Jesus, John, and the other apostles were false prophets because they all used immanent language. If anyone does respond, please do so with Scripture rather than mere conjecture, philosophy, opinion, or "It just can't be so."
_I was a member of the Temple of Satan, and one day, God touched my heart, and I listened to Pastor Laurie's sermons. It changed me. Jesus is my savior_
I accepted Jesus in my heart 4 nights ago. I learned how to pray today so I'm coming right to Revelation with everything going on. What a blessing🛐 Thank you Abba Father☝️🩷
Yesssss , Amen !! I was raised in Buddhist and Muslim family , I went to Buddhist school since I was kindergarten until high school , I never once listen they mention Buddha or Muhammad the way to heaven , they them self also still searching no certainty, until Christ come to my life I knew He is the only way to go to heaven a certain absolute promise !! Thank you Lord Jesus , thank you Pastor Greg for a firm assurance God bless you 🙏🥰
I followed a couple of false prophets, searching for answers to my spirituality for a while. When my heart felt so very empty and I was carrying so much weight and pain, that I began to feel I didn't even belong to mankind. Our Heavenly Father, God called my name, I accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior and made my recommitment with a new Baptism. Wow!!! I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I went to sleep one night, crying out to God and Jesus... I woke up with an imprint of a cross on my forearm, with no explanation of how it got there. I took pictures of it as a constant reminder. I was told then, "You are never alone!" I KNOW IT, and I BELIEVE IT. Amen, amen. I am not afraid. God bless, God blessed!!! ❤😊
I wish more preachers would speak about REPENTANCE. Also, " wide is the gate and narrow the way" is also totally omitted. Too many church goers dont realize there are certain commandments we must attempt to follow, because that is also left out. Of course, we are all going to continue sinning on the daily, but if we are truly saved, we will not want to be what we once were, Trust me, I am not the person to be preaching, but it causes so much concern to read these comments and see so many saying this was such a wonderful message and explanation, when so much important/vital scripture was totally left out. m not accusing the preacher of doing this on purpose, as I have no clue about his heart, but I do have a little knowledge about what the Bible says...Enough to know this was NOT a thorough sermon on Revelation.
the reason pastors in churches don't teach about eschatology(the end times) is becouse the subject is very complicated. take for example the preacher in this video is only teaching one view(the futurist dispensecional pre-mellenial view) what this guy in this video is not telling anybody is that everything he is teaching here about revelation are just assumptions. study for yourself to get to the truth.
Pastor Greg! I just watched this message of yours this morning for the first time. I am newly saved and born again and had never heard of you until this morning. Then tonight I just watched the Jesus Revolution! Only to find out at the end of the movie that I recognized your face from the amazing sermon about Revelation I watched this morning! So I came back to this video to find out what your name was and sure enough it was you!! 🤯 🥲 🙏🏼🙌🏼 God is SO GOOD and He has been so faithful over the last year. April 5th will be one year since I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and saviour and I can’t even explain how thankful I am. Praise God! And may God bless you and your family! ❤
Remember don't get caught into that trap of I accepted the Lord and now I'm saved you must repent turn from your sin and put your complete trust in the savior. It's the only way you can bear good fruit. Be not deceived for even the elect will be deceived. You will be under attack like never before by the enemy for he's angry that you've taken this step. You must put the full armour of God on. His helmet his breastplate is sash sword and pray for forgiveness everyday. For We All Fall so short of his glory. Repentance true repentance is a daily thing. It keeps you in check. My Hope For You Is the Lord blesses you with knowledge and discernment. That will take a lot of work on your part things will be revealed to you
Pastor Greg Laurie and the Harvest Church saved my life during the pandemic. God bless the Laurie Family, Harvest Church, and all of my Brothers and Sisters in Christ.
Some years back now I reached a place in my life where I found myself cutting myself and looking off of interstate bridges for my weapon of choice. I fell to a place of darkness that I could not find my way out. But one night in that darkness the Lord called out to me and asked me two questions. Aren't you tired yet? And aren't you ready to come home?. When I threw my hands up in the air and said whatever it takes Lord whatever it takes.... My life was instantly changed in ways that it had never been changed before. God rescued me from the outer darkness. And while it is nice to have a lifelong testimony of serving The Lord you don't have a clue is to have grateful I am that after my life because I'll be 71 in 2 weeks but that after most of my life God reached out to me. And He hasn't stopped blessing me yet. I don't care what people say about me where I was what I did it's totally irrelevant to what my Father says about me. The world keeps calling me a sinner saved by grace. My father says that I am Redeemed. That I stand righteous before Him. The blood of Yeshua has been applied to my life and it has changed me. I don't worry about anything anymore. I know who I am I know whose I am I know where I am and I know which direction I am going. If you are living in a place where you think you're not worthy, you're not, but God still loves you just like He does me. We need to learn and know what our true identity is so that Satan cannot talk us out of who we are.
May I ask if you already knew the Lord when you were thinking about the end? If not, how did you know it was God? Of course you don’t have to answer, but I’m just really curious. I think that’s a beautiful testimony!!!
Awesome deep stuff. Remind me of someone with a PhD. I need to hear you say that. Choice concept. Thank you for your openness. Would like to edit and chat.
Awesome message. What amazes me is that those of us taken up in the rapture will never experience physical death. What a gift! See you all at the feast table. 🙌🛫☝️💞
That is a (unbiblical) lie or you are deceived. I have wondered what pastors have been teaching in the 5013c. Rubbish! The Bible says Christ's followers are appointed ONCE TO DIE and then the RESURRECTION! NOT rapture. The hireling will tell you what you WANT to hear. CHECK THE FRUIT ON THE TREE.
@@swissb64 yes Suz you are 1000 percent correct with what you said, never lose focus on what the other person is referring too though. I’ve learned never to get to hung with the technicalities. Love and worship Him and we will be at the table. Although you are right always remember the most important part. Oh they infighting Christians I’ve had to suffer listening too. Same team Suz we are on the same team.
@@swissb64 For God so loved the world that he gave us only begotten son whoever believes in him will not die but have eternal life. Everything else added on to that is a technicality looking for an argument.
So I have an online friend who I have been talking to and playing video games with for almost 3 years. Just last night he accepted Christ as his Lord and savior! And I have been praising God for it. He has some questions about what the end of the world will be like, I explained the tribulation to him a little bit. I also sent him this video, I ask that you would pray that he understands what you are talking about in the this video. Thank you so much for this video. I really appreciate everything you have said in this video. I am praying that this video will speak to my friend.
I actually watched this sermon a couple months ago while looking for a bible study of Revelation. I rewatched Jesus Revolution a couple days ago. Came back here because I didn't realize it was Pastor Greg Laurie speaking this message. But I remembered that this sermon helped me understand the book of Revelation. Thank you!
0h L0rd!! G0d almighty!! I magnify y0ur name!! Yaweh I give you all the gl0ry f0r my life!! F0rgive my sins and my un c0nfessed sins L0d! L0d I want more of you and less 0f me!

I cut it 0ff at the head and send it back to the pit 0f he'll in which it has come fr0m! I release love, kindness, patience, humility in the name of Jesus! I f0llowed my heart and I am glad I did. I l0st my wife 2 years ag0 due to the pandemic and I was about giving up, kn0wing G0d has br0ught me this far was for a purpose and I kept on looking on to him. My destiny helper was sent to me the year my wife died. The moment I was about giving up, I was intr0duced to a business by a man I met in a seminar I went to in Fl0rida. This was not my first time hearing of such business but I took the risk Investin 1OOO USD and it was worth it. Inf0@j0hnneilandrew, C0M 4 weeks later I kept on getting earnings and I started using the money for Gods work. I am very p0pular in Maryland. D0ing G0ds work always give me joy. There is peace and joy in my mind . I am here to motivate you and tell you never to give up even though the situation seems so though. God has promised his children and he will surely d0 what he has pr0mised his children. My mail is in my about or bio if you wish t0 write me. I can tell you what this business is all ab0ut or you can reach him directly.!!
I AM JC! Ya ready meet know im here? Why you say come quickily? Kaduri recognized me 11/04/2003; why you have no clue im here if you want me here quickily? You obvious dont want me here? If you did yad know me!
God has answered my prayers again, I’ve been looking for a site, vlog, video whatever you want to call it, for a few days now on how to understand revelation, easily, and this morning I started looking again and pastor Greg Laurie has just uploaded…..thank you xxx
@@lmaiden8331 kinda obvious when ya really study look at all the prophecies given to many whats going to happen and even when if messiah is understanding all clues conchita has given and others when pope goes moscow and thats never happened in church history gets back rome communism is going lay nato allies to waste conchitas hints brings it down to 3 dates of warning and 3 for miracle 8 days later one fits perfect is warning may 4th miracle may 12 saint pancras day 22-28 trib many many much bout be laid waste then god gives last sign to humans on dday illumanation conscience//these folks have no clue whats going on!
I have been listening to Andy Woods, DTBM, and Steve Whinery. I love hearing that Jesus has this all planned out and will be coming for us soon. God bless. 👑
Wow I just listened tonight. It’s 2/2/2024 now …God truly blessed me to be introduced to Pastor Greg Laurie via these RU-vid videos. His messages of end times and truth are eye opening . He’s truly anointed by God himself, amen 🙏.
The best part is God and his son, Jesus, WINS !!!!!!! And those who know Jesus as savior WIN !! Imagine eternal life with Jesus !!!!!!! Have a healthy blessed Happy New Year.
What a wonderful sermon and prayer at the end! I had both hands in the air asking for forgiveness and help in re dedicating my time left here! God bless everyone of you!
I know generations before me have said they believe Christ would return soon. I believe so strongly in my heart he is on his way. Time is short his glorious return may be soon.
The best commentary/interpretation of Revelation is by Pastor Steven Anderson. His series on the Revelation is amazing and very accurate... You will learn truth
That's because most big churches are smart enough to know that Revelation was written exclusively to and for the seven churches of Asia Minor (Rev.1:4) and that the end times occurred in the first century.
@@josephrohland5604 Wrong. Even tho they were 7 actual churches they represent prototypical churches that exist today. The message Jesus gave is for us today. To say it is not is to disobey Rev 22 by taking away the words of this book. You sir are a false teacher. Good day.
TY PASTOR LAURIE..I CAME TO JESUS THROUGH YOUR CHURCH IN RIVERSIDE 40 YRS AGO ❤️🙏🏻☺️ LEFT CA IN 2020 FOR FREE FLORIDA AND FOUND YOU AGAIN IN 2023☺️🙏🏻❤️ TY JESUS
Wow!!! Iv heard your voice for many years now. I believe you helped Jesus come in to my heart one morning at a stop light after working an overnight shift. God bless you and thank you for all you do. It is also really cool seeing your face for the first time!!!
🎶 I'm so glad I'm a part of the family of God, I've been blessed by The Spirit, washed in The Blood. Joined heirs with Jesus as well travel this sod, for I'm part of the family, the family of God. 🎶
I want to thank God for Jesus Revolution, it was a beautiful movie, that both my husband and I, got to watch together ❤️ 🙏. Yesterday, a friend and I watched it again. It's more of a blessing because I met Chuck Smith and Greg Laurie from Komomai Calvary Chapel, I cried thru out the movie because it's real life events, with the different generations we're in. Thank you Pastor Laurie
Thank you for giving us the Word of truth. So many pastors tell us what they think we want to hear just so they’re heard. God wants us to hear the TRUTH and to come to Him. God bless you!
Pastor Laurie, bless you. We have started a ministry here in Ohio as an outreach to those in need. I feel strongly pulled to do this and am really excited to see God's work through our ministry.
Thank you Greg Laurie for your awesome message, messages! Thank you dear Jesus, for Greg and many others who teach us the truths in our Holy Bibles ! 😊😊🙏🙏💕💕
@@SofieLove I don't have a timeline...I have the Bible. In that Bible, the last chapter is REVELATION. Also read the last few verses of Revelation. It warns of not adding or taking away from the BIBLE!
@armywife.....Jesuit, Papal, Counter reformation coctrinal errors actually. All SUNday worshipers preach Roman Catholic doctrine. Continue to believe these errors and u will reject the Seal of God (The Holy Spirit manifesting obedience to God Holy Law - Rev 14:12/Rev 22:14) and receive the Mark of the Beast (Lawlessness/Baal worship Rev 13) .
@@shiningstar3312I watched and am amazed that people buy this stuff. Reading some bible verses, and then running on documentable jesuite teachings and without ANY reference to where in the Bible he has his teaching from, like the 7 year tribulation, the antichrist making a peacedeal with the state of Israel, the temple being rebuilt, the secret rapture, the two witnesses being Moses and Elijah and on and on and on. Pure fables and imaginations of men. As Peter wrote, that the word of prophesy is not of private interpretation. The Bible interprets itself. People, seek truth where truth is found, in the word of truth, and find any bible not authorised by the catholic church or the ecumenical swingerclub. It is not without reason Jesus warned "let no man deceive you" You will be deceived if you swallow such teaching as being the word of God. It only contains traces of truth. Just enough to bypass the bullshitfilter. Do not believe any man that can not back up his teaching with the Bible itself.
Thank you Pastor Greg! I am going through a hard time right now! But I know God has not forsaken me but I am doing my best to lean on the Lord and trying to get closer to the Lord.
I agree. My family and I are going through rough times right now too. Jesus is our strength and hope. May God bless you and yours. May God help and deliver you/yours with what you are going through.
Reading my Bible helps me everyday..or even listening to Sermons of the most popular readers. Or listening to someone READING THE BIBLE .. GRACE TO YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS
Thank you, Pastor Greg. I listen to your sermons often. I have been a Christian for a long time but I prayed with you at the end of the video to follow the Lord Jesus Christ more closely and be more committed to living for Him. Thank you so much for putting so much work into preparing these excellent sermons. God bless you and your family.
God brings you He is not lost. I just read your post. How are you now? You're not alone. Thank you for being genuine. We're all in this together. Sending my love..
The book is so warm and reassuring, to hear the promise of our Father fufilled and we can finally enjoy each other, really enjoy one another, can't wait to meet so many of you all
The best explation I have heard I have a mission in league city and I am going to use this teaching to let everyone know about the Revelation of JESUS I am in tears GOD B lESS you sir for such a true WORD
I never searched for God but God pursued me. I was looking for love though and followed a young man to church. That's when I decovered who God was and what my condition was. I realized God was Holy and I had been sinning not even realizing it. I put my faith in Jesus for salvation and the relationship began in 1978. It's been a long journey of ups and downs with the Lord. He has been so patient with me . His love and mercy is amazing. I'm overwhelmed by the fact the he loves me and wants to do life with me. I look forward to serving him for all eternity. I am forever thankful for my Lord Jesus and all he did to save me. ❤🙏
This is a powerful witness of what is to come. Greg Laurie speaks from the heart of John who wrote Revelation. And John was the secretary of God Almighty. The message is clear. Accept Christ Jesus as your Savior before it's too late. Time is running out! God has been so patient and merciful. What more could you want from an Omnipotent Creator?
@user-ew4kr1ps6i I pray so! a man of God like him does so many things behind the scenes you have no idea. Because I’m in the ministry too and I’m going seven days a week but I don’t get paid.
Praying for strength. My job is stressful but I cannot quit. Working full time as a mom is not ideal. I wish I could work part time or be a stay at home mom.
Praise God for pastor Greg Laurie! I thank you Lord for this message that you told him to share and I thank you Lord that pastor Greg Laurie obeyed! Bless him Lord Jesus!
Great old school paster doing great in today's world. Thank you for serving the Risen Lord Yeshua with your life. Not perfect but a good faithful servant.
