Last week we saw the Rapture, Throne, and the Lord sits on the throne. We noted the Priestly heritage, the Promise in the rainbow, and the Praise worthiness that the emerald represents.

Mark 8:22-26

Introduction

We have before us a unique passage. The blind man of Bethsaida is only given to us in the Gospel of Mark. It is therefore unique. It is further unique because it is the only miracle done in the Scripture, which is described as being done partially, or requiring two different times. I have often wondered about the meaning behind this miracle.

The Closing #

Revelation 22:1-5

Introduction

We have arrived at the final chapter of Revelation. We started our series on July 24, 2022. So it has taken us exactly one year to get through the book of Revelation on Sunday nights. In one year, we have only heard 35 messages on the book of Revelation. We took a little more time in the first three chapters, then we took one chapter per service. Through the series, I hope it has been educational, exhorting, and encouraging to you.

Introduction

God didn’t see fit to give us one clear passage that defines clearly the timeline to the end times. We therefore must put our hand to the plow and

2Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

The end times are much like puzzle pieces scattered throughout the Bible, and we must gather them together and assemble the puzzle. Some pieces are easily recognizable, and it becomes clear. My goal tonight is not to give you the entirety of the puzzle, but to put enough of the edge pieces together, that you can figure out the picture. We are only looking at the end times, with concern of what the Bible calls the church. This church, will not be assembled until it is called out, and assembled in heaven.
