Thank you Pastor Heitzig so much for giving such a clear explanation of the words in the Book of Revelation. I really appreciate how you clarified who the 24 elders are, by cross referencing them in chapter 4, vs 4 with vs 10 and 11; making it so clear that the 24 elders represent the risen saints. Also, it is so good to hear that the Book of Revelation is vitally important to read and understand; and in doing so, we receive a special blessing.❤🙌😅
A great revelation on the identity of the 24 elders. It is true that must be the case. Another teacher said he believes they came from the resurrection that occurred when Jesus was descending to the lower regions of the earth on His death.
I tend to lean away from the word 'predict' in relation to Biblical prophecy. Foretelling, foreknowledge, and other such descriptions are closer. What the prophets spoke is history going to happen vs 'prediction' which kind of suggests 'there is a very good chance'. Just a little rewiring I'm doing for how I approach Prophecy.
I feel good listening to this. It appears Martin Luther did not have revelation about many themes of the Bible. It is also said part of his writings depict the Jews negatively and that partly inspired Hitler's ideology. I infer there's a link between amilleanism and the Replacement Theology, which ultimately denies the Abrahamic Covenant. It is one of the purposes of the millennial kingdom. Be blessed, the word is sweet when divided correctly.
.....a left over from Roman Catholicisms anti-Jewish mindset, "they killed the Christ" mantra. Yes, Jesus had to die for us. That was the point of Calvery.
👑Ezekiel 3:18 When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou givest him not warning, nor speakest to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life; the same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thine hand. 🎯19 Yet if thou warn the wicked, and he turn not from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul. 🙏❤ I am not being a fear monger. I am seeing prophecy that was foretold to us in the bible. Signs given to us by God to know the time of Jesus 2nd coming. 👑Mark 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have FORETOLD YOU ALL THINGS. 👑1Th 5:4 YOU ARE NOT in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief. For you are all children of light, children of the day. 👑John 8:12 He said: I am the light of the world.

Yes, the fruit of amillennialism will drive you away from the Book of Revelation. The reformers accomplished a lot of good for the faith, but they came out of anti-Semitic Catholic theology that kept their eyes from seeing the Kingdom Jesus will set up with Israel in the coming age. Many modern scholars have recognized this issue and addressed it in their works today. God will rapture the church as preparation for the kingdom He will give to Israel during the Christ's 1,000 yr reign.
I take to heart your explanations of the book of Revelations. Going to reread with understanding. Thank you. Amen 🙏
