Week Seventy in Revelation
Shortly before His death, when Jesus was on the Mount of Olives with His disciples, thy asked Himwhatthe sign would be that 'this present age' was coming to an end. This present age was understood to be the period of time from the creation of Adam to the coming of the Messiah, the promised time for the redemption of Israel. Jesus then explained how his followers would know when that time would come.
Some years later Jesus appeared in His risen glory to the Apostle John, who had been with Him on the Mount of Olives, and was now exiled in a cave on the island of Patmos. Jesus gave him further details of the events to be expected in the period leading up to His return, to rid the world of Satan, and to establish Himself as King of Israel, and ruler of the world. This time, the Millennium, a thousand years of peace, order and happiness for the whole world, will be the start of the age to come.
The period between this current age and the age to come is known as 'the last days.' The climax of this turbulent time is a period of seven years, the Tribulation, 'Week Seventy,' the last week seventy weeks of years, a time that was shown to the Old Testament prophet Daniel by the angel Gabriel, and is dealt with in my book 'Week Seventy in Daniel.'
The major part of the Book of Revelation deals specifically with these seven years, the first nineteen chapters out of a total of twenty two. The visions and visitations received by the Apostle John fulfil many of the Old Testament prophecies in graphic detail, and they build on the information Jesus gave His disciples on the Mount of Olives.
The prophecies of the Old Testament, the teachings of Jesus and the Apostles in their New Testament letters, and the visions given to John, combine into a giant jigsaw puzzle, which, when completed, give an amazing, graphic and detailed picture of events that will shortly occur.
This book builds on 'Week Seventy in Daniel,' and takes the reader chapter by chapter through this fascinating and greatly neglected book. It is essential reading for all believers in these last days. We live in Biblical times, as important as the days of Joseph and Mary, Zechariah and Elizabeth, Simeon, Anna and the Magi.
The Book of Revelation takes us through this period year by year. In the letters to the Seven Churches, Jesus Himself tells us the dangers, the opportunities and the rewards that we are to watch out for each year of 'Week Seventy.' He personally breaks open seven seals on a scroll that holds the future of mankind, year by year for the seven years of 'Week Seventy.' He alone is able to open the future of the world, bringing salvation to millions and eternal punishment to all those who have rejected His salvation.
It is a book of wonder, devastating events, demonic creatures, dragons with many heads, beasts with horns, locusts emerging in thick smoke from the Abyss in the depth of the earth, a lewd prostitute seated on a scarlet beast. It records wars, bloodshed, and times of great deception and evil, earthquakes, famines and death on a massive scale. But there are also awesome descriptions of Heaven, the Father on His glorious throne, four living creatures, twenty four elders seated on thrones and myriads of angels. of Jesus riding out of Heaven with a mighty army.
My prayer is that by reading 'Week Seventy in Revelation' you will catch something of the wonder and majesty of this awesome book, and it will encourage you to search more deeply into the scriptures about the last days, and help you to be ready and prepared for what is about to envelope the whole world.
