Misreading Scripture is a series that takes common scriptures and helps you to see them with a new set of eyes. Many of these are scriptures we have been innocently misinterpreting. And once we gain insight into the culture and context of the passage, all of a sudden it becomes clear in an entirely new way.

John wrote Revelations because he was repeatedly told to write the things down he heard and saw by God. This was not John’s idea to encourage the churches.

@t.p.sheppard1270 8 месяцев назад

Thank you. At least the presenter should allow for this possibility, because he doesn’t know, nor do I. I’m inclined to believe John was taken up into heaven and did what he was told to do: write down what you see and hear. Bottom line as followers of Jesus is to trust in His work on behalf of the Father, and listen for the Spirit to move us. Jesus is Lord. The presenter can believe he is right, but only God is right. We’ll see what the future holds.

Sorry, to say you obviously forgot the part where Jesus says “Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭1‬:‭19‬ ‭KJV And “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭22‬:‭18‬-‭19‬ ‭KJV

Thank you. I always get nervous when I see someone claiming to teach "the truth" about Revelation. I always wonder, do they understand what was happening in the Christian community at the time it was written? Do they understand the purpose was not to predict the end of the world but to encourage Christians being persecuted to remain faithful? I'm glad to see you do and teach it well.

A lot of scholars believe the book of Revelation was written before AD70 and fits perfectly with Matthew 24 and Josephus', "The Jewish wars". Look into it. It's fascinating. Revelation even tells you itself what it's about and when it will take place. Read it and pay attention to the time indicator words such as "soon' and "shortly". Also read it with audience relevance in mind. It was written to the 7 churches that existed at that very moment and was warning them of things to come and how to avoid it. Don't take my word for it, just read it in context. Blessing

@Jsmith0819 8 месяцев назад

While I'm very open to various interpretations of Revelation, I have to look at the world and see that unlike any previous time in history it seems to be lining up exactly to unfold exactly as those who view it has future events have laid out in their interpretation. Maybe that is coincidence, but unlike all the times throughout history where people have shouted "this is it" just because things were bad, while making so many things metaphorical to justify why it doesn't seem to match, things seem to be ready to fall into place exactly as they've interpreted. Considering all of the other areas of the bible that speak of the time they were written in, but also the future, I can't just throw away any of the potential interpretations. It would feel like trying to place God in a box that I want him in, whether that be that he was only talking about back then, or that he was only talking about the far future, or that he was talking about both. I feel all three of those are possible, and I will only know when the time comes to see in full.

@Jsmith0819 8 месяцев назад

@@jeanjaz the birth pangs reference absolutely makes sense. I've always figured that the spiritual forces that oppose God have no more knowledge of the time line of events than we do, so they just keep inspiring humans towards the same evils over and over. So you're going to see these themes recur throughout human history, and partial fulfillment will be common. However, as the end grows near and God gives us over to our desires those forces will become more and more successful, drawing the cycle closer and closer, but only God can decide when our sin has reached fullness as he did with Caanan. I see some good arguments on the side of most of it being already fullfiled, and the text just being about that time, but I don't personally see it all as fitting into that interpretation. However, I also don't know everything that happened in 70ad. Either way I won't take a solid stand as to which is true, even though my strongest inclination is the "it was talking about 70ad, but also a future event that would see many of the same things play out again.

I will experience more rejection, abandonment, betrayal, loneliness, and be misunderstood. I feel as if I'm just a wayfaring stranger, just passing through this world of hurt and sorrow.

If I remember correctly, the story of Nineveh would seem to explain the concept of prophesy. They were warned that if the kept doing bad, then bad thing would happen. They stopped doing bad. Bad thing didn't happen. They eventually went back to doing bad. Bad thing finally happened. Prophesy would seem to predict consequences to choices, not a predetermined future.

Our church covered Revelation pretty much like you did, especially because in Germany, certain End-Times Theories have become so popular that people actually don't know what it means. The interpret some parts literally, whereas others they decide to interpret figuratively. Skye Jethani has also be an outspoken opponent of this mix-and-match theology. My hope is that Christians, as you rightly point out, take heart through this book and know that God (and goodness) is bigger than evil and has become victorious through Jesus Christ. It's a book that tells us: "Do not fear..." (Revelation 2:10) So thanks for putting this out there!!!

I love your teaching Pastor Brandon and I apply them much when reading the Scriptures. I just want to note that the way the world is unfolding with political unrest, cancel culture issues, wars, earthquakes, floods and just pure evil manifestation. I do believe that the second coming of Christ is closer than ever and that now is the most important time to try to reach the unreachable by spreading His word of Salvation for the building of his Kingdom before the falling of the last days of Earth's history.. Matthew 24: "Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, `I am the Christ, ' and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come...."

@Xerxes2005 8 месяцев назад

He didn't say it isn't about the end of times, he said it is not only about that. The only chapters that are actually about the end of times is when Jesus returns and establishes His kingdom. John wrote his Revelations mainly for the people who were struggling at his time. Of course, like Brandon said, we also struggle and that book can also give us hope. I mean take the Four Horsemen. Conquest (or Pestilence), War, Famine and Death always came hand in hand. That's nothing new. One can cause the other. You have an epidemic, which means less people are producing food, so there's a famine, nations go to war to secure the resources they can and there's a lot of death. Or, there's a war, with sieges of cities, which means famine and dysentery and death. And so on. John is basically saying: Yes, there's shit going on and shit will keep going on, but don't give up, hold fast, because Our Lord is winning for us! Amen! Come Lord Jesus!

@@pappa_panda future events for sure..including Jesus 1,000 yr reign after the tribulation..its all in there..but that was a good question, because I used to think Revelation was just a warning..keep searching..keep growing! A really good book is called The Mighty Angels of Revelation by Nathan E Jones from Lamb & Lion Ministries also he's on Christ in Prophecy where David Reagan used to be on..good sound doctrine Ministry..Amir Tsarfati has a book out called Revealing Revelation..but I have not read that one..ty peace to you

@@pappa_pandaJesus is returning, He tells the disciples He is returning. He describes what to look for when He is returning, but no one knows when, only God. I don't have a Bible handy to confirm where in the Gospels or which ones. I think I remember Matthew as one. Some of those future events are starting to look ominous. As was said by Jesus about Braxton Hicks pains. These birth pains are before the labour or the End Times. It is true Revelation uses symbols that the people of the time would understand. It's like a person saying its raining cats & dogs. How would they describe a nuclear bomb, or tanks or any of today's weapons of war. A.I. Rich men's bomb shelters.

Thank you.. The context is so important. When I first opened the video I was like "Oh man.. another person claiming prophecy." None of us know for sure when the end times will be, and the more we try to read our current situation into the text the more people we will lose as the "end of the world" doesn't come. One day Christ will come back, but none of us know when that will be.

We don’t know the day or hour, but all of humanity is showing that the season is upon us.

I know some may think this is silly. But Everytime I fall away from god for like a month and stop praying or reading my Bible daily, I fall apart. And these videos stop showing up in my RU-vid feed because I’m watching useless stuff. And then I pray to god to help my get back. And boom, your videos pop up Brandon. Thank you. I really believe god is using you to help spread unbiased information about the faith. Thank you.
