The word Revelation in Revelation 1:1 means "disclosure; to remove
the cover; to unveil something that is hidden". This word Revelation is
the Greek word "apokalupsis."
It is amazing how so many people want to turn this into a
"sensationalism theology" rather than what it really is.
Revelation 1:1-2 The revelation of
Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to
show unto his servants things which must
shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his
angel unto his servant John: who bare record of the word of God, and of the
testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
The Revelation... the unveiling of the beginning and the end, Jesus
Christ. To give Understanding to his servants of what "must
shortly come to pass"..... in that generation.
Apokalupsis is what many false teachings have used to express
their false end of the world or end time theories. Apokalupsis is
where they get the word Apocalypse. It only means to "disclose or
uncover". And in this instance it is speaking of Jesus Christ.
The unveiling of the hidden mystery... Look at Colossians 1:25-27
"Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which
is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; Even the
mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is
made manifest to his saints: To
whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among
the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:..."
Now back to Revelation 1:1-2... It was the revealing of what was about
to happen "shortly" in their generation which was about Jesus Christ
bringing an end to that "world" or "age" and birthing in
the New Order: New Heaven and Earth where God would dwell.
The Regeneration that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 19:28. A Change of
the Blood Covenant, Priesthood, Law, everything happening in that
generation.... Hebrews 10:9 reveals the removing of the first to establish the
second.
They were in transition and it was the worst tribulation that had ever
been nor ever would be.... Matthew 24:21 (Jesus speaking) For then
shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to
this time, no, nor ever shall be."
WOW!
"This Time" spoke of them in That Generation. We live in
the "nor ever shall be" ages. See... Jesus told them it was
going to happen in their generation, not ours. There had to come the
"judgment" from that law before it was closed, fulfilled, completed,
and before Jesus could fully birth in the New Order after Melchisedec
Priesthood, rules, law, etc.
Jesus fulfilled all Righteousness, Judgment, and Payment of
Sin/Death for all under that order of the law of sin and
death. That law was a working of the flesh; so God in the flesh man -
Jesus Christ - came and FULFILLED every fleshly ordinance for us all under
that order!!!!
That old law could not cleanse the conscience, so a better covenant of
blood, and promises were made and revealed in and of and by Jesus Christ: The
Last Adam - The Lamb of God that lives for ever as our Intercessor and
Redeemer.
He Stands at (as) the door of Death and Sin that is of the old and
Declares it Fulfilled and Shut..... He Stands as the Door of Life and says
it is open to all that receive me, the Son of God, the Lamb of God. Come Through
Me to ENTER. Oh please hear this! He took on the old, fulfilled and
removed it, and established a better way into Life and to God our Father.
He is the veil which is the flesh that was given for the world, so that
all that receive and eat His Flesh/Word/Bread (water) and Drink His
Blood/Life/Wine (Spirit) may ENTER in to His Kingdom and live for
ever.
Receive His Testament that the Father is speaking to you.
What He has shut, none can open. What He has opened, none can shut. He is the KEY to all. Hallelujah, so much to say here… Perhaps another time… Let’s continue.
The Father draws whom He will to the Son, and the Son reveals the Father
to whom He pleases. (John 6:44; John 6:65; John 6:53-58; Matt 11:17; Luke
10:22)
Hebrews 10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us,
through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;...
Now, the new is established and we press into His Kingdom of
Righteousness, Peace, and Joy that is in His Holy
Presence/Spirit. Now, under the New Order and Covenant we are
secured in His Blood, and Grace is Abounding through His Righteousness so we
may have His Divine Eternal Life working in and thru us. Our
Deliver. Our New Life. It IS a process and working of Grace, but He
has secured our success. Each Will Be Changed.
Now let's look at Revelation again... Revelation is the Apocalypse
"The Disclosure" to the saints back then. To Give them an
understanding of what was about to happen. To give warning and an
opportunity to those certain churches and their "angels" Pastors to
Repent....
It was for THAT GENERATION and those churches. It happened.
It is completed. It is Finished. It is Done.
Now, Today, Receive Jesus Christ in all that He Has Accomplished, and
YOU TOO ENTER into His Kingdom that is already established: Righteousness, Peace,
and Joy IN His Holy Spirit IN YOU.
Thank You Father and Lord!
Amen.
