Title: "Unveiling the Hope of Prophecy: A Journey Through Biblical Revelation"
Introduction: Join us on another captivating exploration of biblical prophecy as we uncover the hope and promise it holds for believers. Delve into the pages of scripture with us as we unravel the mysteries of prophecy and discover the unshakable assurance it brings.
Scripture Passage: Revelation 21:1-5 (NIV) Cross References: Isaiah 65:17-25, 2 Peter 3:13, Romans 8:18-25
Commentary: Revelation 21 paints a breathtaking picture of the new heaven and new earth, where God will dwell with His people, wiping away every tear and making all things new. This vision offers hope and assurance to believers, reminding us of the glorious future that awaits us in Christ.
Isaiah 65 provides a glimpse into the coming kingdom of God, where there will be joy, peace, and prosperity beyond imagination. It speaks of a time when God will create a new heavens and a new earth, where His people will dwell in everlasting righteousness.
In 2 Peter 3, Peter encourages believers to look forward to the day of the Lord, when the heavens will disappear with a roar and the elements will be destroyed by fire. Yet, in the midst of this destruction, there is hope for a new heaven and new earth, where righteousness dwells.
Romans 8 reminds us that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed to us. Creation itself groans in anticipation of the redemption that will come with the revealing of the sons of God.
Application Questions:
How does the hope of prophecy influence your perspective on current challenges and trials?
In what ways does the promise of a new heaven and new earth inspire you to live with hope and purpose?
How can understanding biblical prophecy deepen your faith and trust in God's sovereign plan?
What practical steps can you take to share the hope of prophecy with others and encourage them in their faith journey?

Two of the disciples of Jesus were on their way to a village called Emmaus, seven miles from Jerusalem, and they were talking together about all that had happened. Now as they talked this over, Jesus himself came up and walked by their side; but something prevented them from recognising him. He said to them, ‘What matters are you discussing as you walk along?’ They stopped short, their faces downcast.
Then one of them, called Cleopas, answered him, ‘You must be the only person staying in Jerusalem who does not know the things that have been happening there these last few days.’ ‘What things?’ he asked. ‘All about Jesus of Nazareth’ they answered ‘who proved he was a great prophet by the things he said and did in the sight of God and of the whole people; and how our chief priests and our leaders handed him over to be sentenced to death, and had him crucified. Our own hope had been that he would be the one to set Israel free. And this is not all: two whole days have gone by since it all happened; and some women from our group have astounded us: they went to the tomb in the early morning, and when they did not find the body, they came back to tell us they had seen a vision of angels who declared he was alive. Some of our friends went to the tomb and found everything exactly as the women had reported, but of him they saw nothing.’
Then he said to them, ‘You foolish men! So slow to believe the full message of the prophets! Was it not ordained that the Christ should suffer and so enter into his glory?’ Then, starting with Moses and going through all the prophets, he explained to them the passages throughout the scriptures that were about himself.
When they drew near to the village to which they were going, he made as if to go on; but they pressed him to stay with them. ‘It is nearly evening’ they said ‘and the day is almost over.’ So he went in to stay with them. Now while he was with them at table, he took the bread and said the blessing; then he broke it and handed it to them. And their eyes were opened and they recognised him; but he had vanished from their sight. Then they said to each other, ‘Did not our hearts burn within us as he talked to us on the road and explained the scriptures to us?’
They set out that instant and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven assembled together with their companions, who said to them, ‘Yes, it is true. The Lord has risen and has appeared to Simon.’ Then they told their story of what had happened on the road and how they had recognised him at the breaking of bread.
[Luke 24:13-35]

But the blessing of the kingdom of heaven is upon those who have been deeply saddened. Blessed are those who mourn their sin, for they shall be comforted. Content are those who are aggrieved by their iniquity, for they shall be consoled. Happy are those who are sad that they are evil-doers, for their tears shall be dried. Joyful are those who are downcast over their rebellion, for they shall be raised up. The favor of God is upon those whose eyes are awash with tears, whose lives have been shattered, whose hearts have been broken—broken by their sin and sinfulness.
~ Tim Challies

THE SABBATH WAS MADE FOR MAN, AND NOT MAN FOR THE SABBATH "...For the Sabbath is more than rest, and the Commandment[2] more than peace, for a day in The Lord is as a thousand years! Therefore, as I rested on the seventh day, so also shall My people. For I had blessed and sanctified the seventh day from the beginning[3], a day set apart and holy, even as those in whom I dwell are set apart and holy."

A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come: but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world. John 16:21
All of us have sorrow in this world but once we enter the presence of God, we will cease to think about the troubles faced here and be joyful in the presence of our God who lives and reigns forever.
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Romans 8:18

I told you – all the religions are correct, came from the same source, but now what’s left is only the rituals and rites, and regulations, and some signals, secret signals, nothing more. Otherwise, all religions came from the same Quan Yin Method. That’s the only method that creates all religions. That’s the only method that all the Masters in the past, present, and future teach. That’s the only source of all religions of mankind. You understand now? OK. So, don’t ask me about any path, other paths – there’s no path at all. It’s only one direct connection. And if we know it, we know it. If we don’t, we don’t. Even if you sit for a thousand years and your bottom falls off, it doesn’t make any difference. You don’t connect. When there’s no electricity, you plug in there for one thousand years, the light doesn’t come out, nothing functions.
I hope you do understand. Of course, some of you do. And I wish you will understand very soon, and truly appreciate what you have got. Otherwise, it’s really, really a greatest loss in your great journey to the Kingdom of God. There’s one chance in a lifetime, in many lifetimes.

"Behold, The Restoration is coming, coming quickly!…
All things restored as in the beginning; A garden where nothing is destroyed, And none are given to destruction; No more pain or tears, no more sickness or death…
Only life is, and shall be, forever!…
Says The Lord."

Jesus said:
‘I tell you most solemnly, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold through the gate, but gets in some other way is a thief and a brigand. The one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the flock; the gatekeeper lets him in, the sheep hear his voice, one by one he calls his own sheep and leads them out. When he has brought out his flock, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow because they know his voice. They never follow a stranger but run away from him: they do not recognise the voice of strangers.’
Jesus told them this parable but they failed to understand what he meant by telling it to them.
So Jesus spoke to them again:
‘I tell you most solemnly, I am the gate of the sheepfold. All others who have come are thieves and brigands; but the sheep took no notice of them. I am the gate. Anyone who enters through me will be safe: he will go freely in and out and be sure of finding pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full.’

For Christians, the new year begins today with the beginning of Advent, the season of expectation, hope, and preparation for the birth of Jesus.
Our human family so desires to see an end to war, poverty, indignity, and deprivation. We long for a world at peace, where all people experience plenty, and everyone has a home filled with family and friends.
Sadly, we continue to try and achieve these most sacred and precious hopes without God, relying upon our own wisdom or convictions in ways that polarize us away from each other, and which inevitably prioritize some people over others in the attempt to impose some version of utopia upon the world through the use of usually violent collectivist force.
The Church teaches us is that there is no human power, no expression of human agency, that will lead us all, together, to paradise. We are not able to engineer our own redemption. We cannot return to paradise through our own efforts. We always, always end of sacrificing some for the benefit of others. And this is not Christian, this is not the Gospel of Jesus.
To whom, then, may we turn for hope? Who is faithful, and will fulfill the promises made to humankind from the beginning of ages?
We turn to God through Jesus.
For those who truly follow Jesus, we are not asked to build any kingdoms, or to place any hope in kingdoms built by human hands, or to labor for any kingdom that has its origins in the strength of humankind.
Instead, we are called to be heralds of what the Lord God is already doing to redeem us, to proclaim the first light of the dawn that is already breaking upon this present darkness, to joyfully announce that our hope, the desire of nations, has been born to us in the vulnerable infant Savior Jesus.
In this season of Advent, May all the faithful renew their identity and calling to be heralds of the birth of Jesus, of the rising of the bright morning star, and offer hope to the world through embracing a life of humility, self-emptying love, mercy, compassion, and peacemaking.
O come, O come Immanuel!
Almighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of darkness, and put on the armor of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which your Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the living and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal; through him who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire.
