Dear Pastor Gary, I love listening to your expository sermons that help me dig deeper into God's word and understanding. I'll add this comment regarding caring for the Environment and what will become at the end of the Age. I'm not with those who put Creation above God or people but with Stewarding His Creation with Care and Integrity irregardless of it's ending cause God will judge us for how we take care of His possessions. It is a very different matter when God does the destruction of the Earth than we ourselves. Christians need to lead others in understanding God and his creation and the care of it, instead of leaving it to those who do not know her Creator and trying all sorts of tech to solve the issues. Revelations 4:11 " You are worthy our Lord and God to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, ....."
He is saying it's a religion, you can be a good steward but don't go crazy. Don't get caught up in all the nonsense they are pushing in order to have more control.
Thanj you pastor for the study but it is so sad and I am crying for the people who are left behind, Praying for children families and friends to be saved
Hello Pastor.... on Date 7 October 2022 at 12:59 AM i lock all the door and windows and sleep alone in a room with LIGHT open. But someone spoke to my ear and said Revelation 8..... Then I woke up.... I HURRYLY opened Up Youth Bible.... then read it..... 📚... twice but I didn't understand it...... But today after I watched your video I understood..... THANK YOU SO MUCH 💓💗....😊
I have learned so much from these bible studies. Thank you so much for your exceptional presentations. You have helped me understand the book of Revelation.
These teaching' of a year ago, in 2022, or maybe my now opportunity to listen, are still so relevant to today. Where were you when I needed you back then??? I thank God for you Pastor Gary🙏🏻
I’m so glad I found you. Your Bible studies are so insightful. I love listening to them on my drive home from work and after dinner. I’ve learned new insights. I also loved your laugh and humor in the beginning of the study. You are surely blessed.
Immediately I came across your sermon sir, my prayer life has changed.truthful I never had full information about Jesus Christ second coming. My eyes are now open and through these teachings, I believe a lot will be saved.
The earth i s God's creation and we also worship God, there is nothing wrong with appreciating and not destroying God's creation, How many of us feel closer to God when we get out of the man made city and enter a natural environment. You see the works of God.
Pastor Hamrick: I really appreciate and thankfully say that I learned a lot from all your teachings, you are God sent, if we are now in the tribulation and you are one member of the tribes I would say you are one of the 144,000. Thank you so much and may our loving God continue to bless you in His grace.
I have always loved this book. Even in my younger years, I have never been intimidated by it. And over the years, I have listen to different pastors go through that book verse by verse, chapter by chapter and every time I go through it, I learn more understand more And love it even more. It is my favorite book and I so look forward to the Rapture and then Jesus second coming, and the new heaven and new earth. is beyond description for our eyes to see and ears to hear. Thank you Pastor Gary for your explanation of Revelation. One more chance for me to enjoy going through the book again. Sadly, I don’t have the compassion that I used to have for the unbelievers. They have the same choices that you and I have, to believe or not to believe. And when they choose not to believe there’s a price to pay. And they will have made that choice all on their own free will given to all of us from God Almighty.
Really enjoying your study on Revelation.Thank you for sharing the word of God on line. So many church today don’t talk about Revelation ...much Blessings to you!
Beautiful teaching. I have a question. Anyone with answer, please feel free to respond. The 144,000 saints. What scripture indicated that they would be evangelising during the tribulation? All i see about them is that they are sealed, they will not be tormented by the demonic locusts during the trumpet judgement, and they eventualy got to be with Jesus. They are virgin men, pure and blameless. It was clearly stated that the two witnesses preached. Also an angel preached during the bowl judgments. but i dont see where it was written that the 144,000 preached or witnessed during the tribulation.
There is not a verse that explicitly says they will evangelize. They SEEM to be the first fruits of the redemption of Israel--Jesus told of a time when Israel will say Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord--and these are saved and sealed. And if they are saved, they will proclaim the gospel. Also, verse 9 explains a great multitude from all over the earth that are saved. Most commentary sees verse 9 following verse 8 and that they are connected.
This is one of the difficult things about not having a church that preaches and teaches prophecy. In revelation eight where you're talking about Chernobyl and wormwood. I agree with you that it is just a glimpse of what is to come - that Chernobyl is not prophecy fulfilled. So my question is, how can we even begin to think that it's prophecy fulfilled When it's Revelation 8? The seals, the angels and the trumpets - isn't that all obviously something that's going to happen during the tribulation? I would appreciate someone's biblical, (I can't think of the correct word) end times answer.
You have interpreted the 144K wrong it's not a literal number 12 is the complete number of GOD'S people and 1000 just represents a large expansive number. 12 x 12 x 1000 = complete expansive number of GOD'S people. Not Jews entirely because most don't believe in salvation by grace. This number of evangelist is is more than 144K of GOD'S people of every tribe language people and nation Not 144K Emphasized by the 24 not 12 elders at the Throne. Otherwise thank you. You did a fairly good job with the Book of Revelation. Such a blessing to the Kingdom of GOD and non believers. Bless you
Yes, scientists believe that eventually one of the volcanoes in Hawaii will collapse into the sea. It's happened in the past and caused giant tsunamis to hit the western US coast.
Thank you for your Revelation series. I've enjoyed them immensely. I would however like to bring to your attention comments I believe are in error. It has to do with Jehovah's Witnesses and the 144,000. Although many years past I've had occasion to attend their services. One of those is a Memorial service
I watched Mike Winger's video on JW. It seems like they stopped claiming to be part of 144.000 in 1952 or 1954 , can't recall. They believe that number had been sealed by that year, and now they aspire to be part of the great crowd. There are two types of that crowd: one ( the higher type) will inherit the spiritual paradise if I'm not mistaken; the other (lower) the earth.
The Russian is wrong in his traslation of wormwood. Wormwood in greek is apsinthos. Chernobyl in Ukraine is actually mugwart. Although Russian to Ukraine Bibles may be traslated as the same plant, the actual Greek is quite different. Mugwart is Artemisia and Wormwood is Apsinthos. The Bible only speaks of Apsinthos (wormwood) not Artemisia (mugwort)
