REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Three - Channel of Communication

 You will benefit greatly by reading Revelation and even more so by observing the things written in it.  John explained in one of his letters: "This is what the love of God means, that we observed his commandments  and yet his commandments are not burdensome, because everything that has been born from God conquers the world. And this is the conquest that has conquered the world, our faith." (1 John 5:3, 4) You can become supremely happy by building such faith! 

It is urgent that we observe the words of the prophecy, "for the appointed time is near.  The appointed time for what?  For the fulfillment of the prophecies of Revelation, including God's judgments.  The time is near for God and Jesus Christ to execute final judgment on Satan's world system. When Jesus was here on earth, he stated that only His Father knew  "that day or the hour." Looking ahead to the troubles that have multiplied on earth from World War I onward, Jesus also said:  "This generation will by no means pass away until all these things happen." So the appointed time  for executing God's decision must be drawing perilously close.   (Mark 13:8, 30-32) As Habakkuk 2:3 states: "The vision is yet for the appointed time, and it keeps panting on the end , and it will not tell a lie.  Even if it should delay, keep on expectation of it; for it will without fail come true. It will not be late." Our salvation through the great tribulation depends on our observing God's prophetic Word. - MATTHEW 24:20-22.
