190402 Wolbijeju Barnett-Revelation 1-5 2018 WOLBI: REVELATION 1-5 Spring SEMESTER 2019 JOHN BARNETT COURSE DETAILS: Our Scope: 10 hours will be spent studying chapters 1-5 the only book in the Bible that has a promise of blessing for those who read it!! Revelation breaks nicely into two sections: the “prophecy” of Revelation 6-22 and the “practice” of Revelation 1-5. Our Purpose: The Book of Revelation God’s final written communication to man. More than just the future and destiny of mankind, this book is the final revelation of the beauty, character, and wonders of our Lord Jesus Christ. For us as believers, the person of Jesus Christ and how to worship Him will dominate our study. Knowing Him should motivate us to personal holiness and evangelism. Our Goals: In exams and assignments, the students are expected: 1. To KNOW the general outline of Revelation. 2. To SEE the key Old Testament quotations used in the book. 3. To UNDERSTAND reasons for the dispensational interpretation of the book. 4. To RECOGNIZE the symbols in the book. 5. To APPLY God's Word to our daily lives. Our Assignments: 1. Read the Book of Revelation once 20 Points 2. Do the Project. A typed 3-part Devotional Method study for each chapter of Revelation 1-5 50 Points 3. Learn Two Verses (3:20; 20:15) 10 Points 4. Take Two Quizzes 10 Points 5. Take Exam 10 Points 100 Points Our Project: The devotional method of: Summary, Lesson, and Application will be explained in class. A copy is also attached. Students will send a copy of their devotionals to me for grading ([email protected]) before the time of the final exam. Page 1 Guide to Devotional Bible Study & Journaling What I suggest is that you invest some time in using a method called the “Devotional Method of Bible Study” and follows these steps: • Read the assigned verse, paragraph or chapter; • Summarize the section you read, note any lessons, truths, or doctrines that you find; • Write out a personal prayer from you to the Lord, asking Him to change you, or work in you, or impact your life: as a personal prayer that makes application of the truths you found in that passage. Here is a typical way I would do that below. You don’t have to do this method after this class, but I have been using and teaching this to students of the Word for 30 plus years and I can vouch for the immense response they give that the Word comes alive, sticks to their hearts; and they have grown deeply through this devotional pattern! This gives you a very basic illustration of what I mean by using the Devotional Bible Study method, and recording your summary, lessons, and a personal prayer of application. This would be the minimum amount of work needed for EACH Page 2 chapter. Isaiah 40 1. Simple Summary: This chapter covers the prediction of John the Baptist’s preparing the way for Christ (v. 3-5); the promise of God’s Word (v. 6-8); many descriptions of the power of God (v.12-26); and the famous wait upon the Lord passage in v. 31. 2. Various Lessons Found: Wow, Jesus when He came revealed in human form what the Glory of God looks like v. 5; we are reminded that we humans are as passing & transient as mowed grass, but the Word of God will last forever v.6-8; God knew that the earth is round (God said that 2700 years ago though science had not yet discovered that truth) v. 22 so He wants me to trust Him about things He knows and I don’t know; God wants me to meditate on His power v. 26; and He knows that life is hard, I get tired, weak, and fainting at times, but He wants me to rest in His strength to pass through and even rise above my struggles by following Him. 3. Personal Application Prayer: Lord, today I will pause and reflect upon your Majesty. I trust that Your plan is so much better than mine. I ask for You dear Lord to control and lead me. Lord, I want to wait on you right now and by faith go forth with Your strength. Amen.

Have you paused yet today to check in with Jesus Christ? The best way to do that is through your Bible, because Jesus Christ is revealed to us as the Word of God. He is the Word, and the Word reveals Him. Each time we open God’s Word we can hear His Voice. At Creation God the Son, the Creator spoke and made all things; and through His Apostles and Prophets, His Word has been given. As you open to the last book of your Bibles, you open to the climactic conclusion of God's Word written down for us. The first word in the Greek New Testament text of Revelation is the word apocalupsis which can be translated as either “revelation” or “unveiling”. The next two words are Jesus Christ. That means in this last book we are: Getting to See the Real Jesus So we are opened to the “revelation of Jesus Christ”, or the “taking the cover off of Jesus Christ”, or the “disclosure of Jesus Christ”, or the “manifestation of Jesus Christ”, or the “unveiling of Jesus Christ” the Word of God. There is so much to think about as we open to 1 110213AM ClW-01 Rev.do Page 5 these Last Words of Christ, God's Word. Revelation completes God’s revelation of Himself to humanity through Christ. In Genesis the Creator, God the Son, walks and talks with Adam and Eve the first two humans to ever exist, created from the Hand of God. But God does not stay walking and talking to them. Because they sinned, He banishes them from the Paradise He made for them. Thus began all the sorrows and woes that have plagued humanity all these thousands of years. But in the book of Revelation the Creator explains that He is back, actively walking on Earth again, among His people. The Book of Revelation explains for us that God the Son, Jesus Christ the Creator is here on the ground guiding His Church to accomplish His purposes in the world. Much like a coach on the floor with his team, Jesus Christ is walking around and watching us play our positions He gave us to play. That is perhaps the most arresting truth in all the Bible for us. We are not alone, the Coach Himself, our Creator is personally wanting to help us get done what He desires us to do. To begin our look at Christ's Last Words, we need to listen to His Voice, and so join me in Revelation 1 as we read v.1-8, 19 Revelation 1:1-19 (NKJV) The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near. 4 John, to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from Him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven Spirits who are before His throne, 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him.

  • AUGUSTINE on SUFFERING and ORDER: PUNISHMENT in CONTEXT by SAMANTHA ELIZABETH THOMPSON a Thesis Submitted in Conformity With
    AUGUSTINE ON SUFFERING AND ORDER: PUNISHMENT IN CONTEXT BY SAMANTHA ELIZABETH THOMPSON A Thesis Submitted in Conformity with the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Philosophy University of Toronto © Samantha Elizabeth Thompson 2010 Augustine on Suffering and Order: Punishment in Context Samantha Elizabeth Thompson Doctor of Philosophy Department of Philosophy University of Toronto 2010 Abstract Augustine of Hippo argues that all suffering is the result of the punishment of sin. Misinterpretations of his meaning are common since isolated statements taken from his works do give misleading and contradictory impressions. This dissertation assembles a comprehensive account of Augustine’s understanding of the causes of suffering to show that these views are substantive and internally consistent. The argument of the dissertation proceeds by confronting and resolving the apparent problems with Augustine’s views on sin and punishment from within the broader framework of his anthropology and metaphysics. The chief difficulty is that Augustine gives two apparently irreconcilable accounts of suffering as punishment. In the first, suffering is viewed as self-inflicted because sin is inherently self-damaging. In the second, God inflicts suffering in response to sin. This dissertation argues that these views are united by Augustine’s concern with the theme of ‘order.’ The first account, it argues, is actually an expression of Augustine’s doctrine that evil is the privation of good; since good is for Augustine synonymous with order, we can then see why he views all affliction as the concrete experience of disorder brought about by sin. This context in turn allows us to see that, by invoking the ii notion of divinely inflicted punishment in both its retributive and remedial forms, Augustine wants to show that disorder itself is embraced by order, either because disorder itself must obey laws, or because what is disordered can be reordered.

    A SERIES OF BIBLE STUDIES ON VARIOUS SUBJECTS BY RICHARD MERRELL (Australia 2000) These studies will reflect the teachings of the Early Church, the Apostolic teachings of those who were the disciples of the Apostles. These are called the Ante Nicean Fathers. "Because therefore that we are justified by faith, we are at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5:1 "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, which is the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself a ransom for all men.." 1 Timothy 2:5 "Study to shew thyself laudable unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, dividing the word of truth justly." 2 Timothy 2:15 "For all scripture given by inspiration of God, is profitable to teach, to improve, to amend and to instruct in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect and prepared unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16 TYNDALE'S NEW TESTAMENT 1534 Please TAKE any study or you want, ALL is FREE to the 'body of messiah' for if I charged money for that which is of God I would be as the userers and merchandisers whom our Lord drove from the temple with a whip. For the shepherds are not to get rich by robbing the sheep and lording it over them, but they are to lead by example, see I Peter 5:1-4. The word 'DIDACHE' is Greek and means 'doctrine/teaching' I believe in the 'Kanon' or 'RULE' of faith. Therefore I present this teaching/doctrine, my words to you are those of Jude; "Beloved, while I was very diligent to write you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." Jude 3.

Although Augustine is one of the Fathers most enthusiastically and thoroughly researched, his letters are less studied than his other works. As a significant number of Augustine’s letters were written as part of his effort to unite the Donatists with the Church, they are especially relevant sources for his views on the unity and authority of the Church. While no single work of Augustine covers the entire period of his dealing with the Donatists, the letters witness to Augustine’s activity against the Donatists from the time he became a priest up to 418.

  • By Aaeon Ellis 1853
    THE BIBLE VERSUS TRADITION IN WHICH THE TRUE TEACHING OF THE BIBLE IS MANIFESTED, THE CORRUPTIONS OF THEOLOGIANS DETECTED, TRADITIONS OF MEN EXPOSED. www.CreationismOnline.com BY AAEON ELLIS REVISED AND MUCH ENLARGED BY THOMAS READ. SECOND EDITION. PUBLISHED AT THE OFFICE OF BIBLE EXAMINER, 1853. JOHN J. KEED PRINTERS, NEW YORK Page 1 PREFACE Our Title would seem to indicate that we have exposed every case where the “Traditions of men have made void the word of God.” But not so: this would require volumes. But by attacking error in its strongest hold, we do much to overturn its whole foundation. And we venture to affirm that he who shall embrace the truths treated of in this book, will be desirous of pursuing the investigation still further. In these pages we 'have more particularly confined ourselves to the scriptural elucidation of The Mortality of Man, The Unconsciousness of the Dead, and the Destruction of the Wicked; but we have likewise investigated the Nature of Man, The Penalty of the Law, The nature of the Sacrifice of Christ, Endless Life obtainable only through Christ. The Resurrection of the Dead, The nature of Hell, The Gospel of the Kingdom and its Location, and various other matters that are not .generally understood in these days of fables. The Immortality of the Soul, and the necessary departure from the sense of Scripture which this belief requires, are the basis of all sectarianism and of all creeds. These abandoned, and the way is opened to the introduction of a purer Christianity, based solely upon the Word of the Living God.

  • A Service of TENEBRAE
    A Service of TENEBRAE WEDNESDAY IN HOLY WEEK St Paul’s Church in Englewood an Episcopal Parish in the Diocese of Newark and the Anglican Communion 1 TENEBRAE The service of Tenebrae, which means “shadows” or “darkness” in Latin, is taken from a special form of Evening Prayer used on the Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of Holy Week. It is an extended meditation on the cross of Christ. Using scripture passages, music, and light, the story of Jesus’ betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion is retold in dramatic fashion. We experience a small portion of Christ’s pain and suffering as we observe the various services throughout Holy Week. During this service, candles are gradually extinguished and the lights dimmed until only a single candle, considered a symbol of Christ, remains. Toward the end of the service, the ‘Christ candle’ is hidden, illustrating the apparent victory of the forces of evil over good. At the very end, a loud noise is made, recalling the earthquake at the time of Jesus’ death (Matthew 27) and his resurrection (Matthew 28:2). The hidden candle is then restored to its place, symbolizing the triumph of Christ over death. By this single light, we all depart in silence. During the service, the congregation is invited to sing the psalms with the Choir. Please stand as the ministers enter. First Nocturn Psalm 69 Salvum me fac Tone II 1 Save me, O God, * for the waters have risen up / to my neck. 2 I am sinking in deep mire, * and there is no firm ground / for my feet.

  • Tenebrae a Service of Darkness and Shadows 2 April 2021 Good Friday Tenebrae
    TENEBRAE A SERVICE OF DARKNESS AND SHADOWS 2 APRIL 2021 GOOD FRIDAY TENEBRAE SAINT JOHN THE BAPTIST CATHOLIC CHURCH! WELCOME! If you are a visitor to St. John’s, we sincerely welcome you. Perhaps you live in the neighbor- hood or nearby area and decided to drop in, or you are visiting from another parish or faith tradition in the Twin Cities, or another part of the country. Whatever the case, we are glad you are here to join us in worship of Jesus Christ Our Lord. For more information about the parish, to register, or to ask a question, visit our Welcome Desk in St. Paul Plaza. Monthly new parishioner registrations take place on the Second Sunday of each month after all Masses in the parish hall. Come and see what the parish has to offer you and your family. Also, we sing to give glory to God, but want to make sure we can continue to do so in a safe way. Therefore, we ask that you please keep your mask on and sing softly during Mass. Only persons five years old or younger or have valid medical reasons are exempt. Thank you for understanding. Christ redeemed humankind and gave perfect glory to God chiefly through his paschal mystery: by dying he destroyed our death and by rising he restored our life. The Easter Triduum of the passion and resurrection of Christ is thus the culmination of the entire liturgical year. What Sunday is to the week, the solemnity of Easter is to the liturgical year. The Easter Triduum begins with the evening Liturgy of the Lord's Supper, and reaches its high point in the Easter Vigil.
