Revelation, only intended for Christ's disciples?
Revelation—What It Means for You Today

“Happy is the one who reads aloud . . . the words of this prophecy.”—REV. 1:3.

1-2. What is one reason why we should be interested in the book of Revelation?

HAVE you ever been invited to look through a photo album belonging to someone else? As you glance at the photos, you see mostly unfamiliar faces. One particular photo, however, catches your attention. Why? Because you are in that photo. As you study it, you try to remember when the picture was taken and where. You also try to identify everyone else in the photo. That photo is especially meaningful to you.

 Quoting: DGN



Book of Revelations is only for Messiah's "Servants"

Says so in the opening lines of Revelations 1:1

1 The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, 2 who testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near.

That Word "Servant is Doulos in Greek.

a slave, bondman, man of servile condition

a slave

metaph., one who gives himself up to another's will those whose service is used by Christ in extending and advancing his cause among men

devoted to another to the disregard of one's own interests

a servant, attendant


If you are not sold-out for The Kingdom of Heaven on Earth, "Servant" of The Messiah Yeshua , none of Revelations is for you as as far as what is coming in revealed in that message to John.

Who cares what it means to everyone else. It's not for you to know, to understand, or to prepare for since it would be in vain.

The rest of Scripture is for you to prepare for His Return to Reign on the Earth.

To realize the opportunity of Covenant relationship he always offered, your separation from Our Creator because of our rebellion, the debt due for that rebellion but also provisions and blessing He has Provided to reconcile us back to Him in His Son by His payment of our "Life" Debt if you will acknowledge your rebellion, your desire to return and accept the Provision of Yeshua and to start again in trust and to Obey Him.

Shalom - Peace and wholeness to you in Yeshua Messiah

In the very first verse, we read: “A revelation by Jesus Christ, which God gave him, to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place.” (Rev. 1:1) So, what is written in this book is not for people in general but for us, God’s dedicated servants.

3 The second reason involves the time when these prophecies are to be fulfilled. The aged apostle John identified that time when he said: “By inspiration I came to be in the Lord’s day.” (Rev. 1:10) When John wrote those words in about 96 C.E., “the Lord’s day” was still far off. (Matt. 25:14, 19; Luke 19:12) But according to Bible prophecy, that day started in 1914 when Jesus was enthroned as King in heaven. From that year onward, the prophecies of Revelation, which involve God’s people, started to undergo fulfillment. Yes, we are now living in “the Lord’s day”!

4 Because we are living in this thrilling time, we are the ones who need to pay special attention to the loving counsel recorded at Revelation 1:3: “Happy is the one who reads aloud and those who hear the words of this prophecy and who observe the things written in it, for the appointed time is near.” Indeed, we need to ‘read aloud,’ to “hear the words of this prophecy,” and to “observe” them. What are some of these words that we need to observe?

Re: Revelation, only intended for Christ's disciples?
MAKE SURE THAT YOUR WORSHIP IS ACCEPTABLE

5. How does the book of Revelation emphasize the need to make sure that our worship is acceptable to Jehovah?

5 Right from the first chapter of Revelation, we learn that Jesus is fully aware of what is happening in the congregations of his people. (Rev. 1:12-16, 20; 2:1) Jesus demonstrated such awareness in the messages he sent to seven congregations in Asia Minor. In those messages, he gave specific direction to help first-century Christians make sure that their worship was acceptable to Jehovah. Moreover, what is said in those messages applies to all of God’s people today. What is the lesson for us? Our Leader, Christ Jesus, is well-aware of our spiritual condition. We are under Jesus’ protective oversight; nothing escapes his eyes. He knows what we need to do in order to continue enjoying Jehovah’s approval. What direction did he give that we need to observe today?

6. (a) As highlighted at Revelation 2:3, 4, what fundamental problem was revealed in Jesus’ message to the congregation in Ephesus? (b) What lesson do we learn from this?

6 Read Revelation 2:3, 4. We must not lose our first love for Jehovah. Jesus’ message to those in the congregation in Ephesus indicated that they had shown endurance and that they had continued without letup to serve Jehovah in spite of various challenges. Even so, they had lost the love they had at first. They needed to rekindle that love—otherwise, their worship would not be acceptable. Likewise today, we need to do more than endure. We need to endure for the right reasons. Our God is interested in not only what we do but also why we do it. Our motives are important to him because he expects our worship to be based on our deep love and appreciation for him.—Prov. 16:2; Mark 12:29, 30.

The language is symbolic, not meaning the destruction of the biosphere but the destruction of the nuclear industrial complex, intercepting it's inflicting an extinction level event. That's what the elements, earth, and works mean, components of man made dooms day devices.

"But by the same word the heavens and the earth that now exist are reserved for fire and are being kept until the day of judgment and of destruction of the ungodly people.
8However, do not let this escape your notice, beloved ones, that one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. 9Jehovah is not slow concerning his promise, as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire anyone to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance. But Jehovah’s day will come as a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar, but the elements being intensely hot will be dissolved, and earth and the works in it will be exposed." 2Pe3;9

I agree with this premise. Only a disciple of Christ would have the God given and necessary discernment to understand the book... and all the others as well.

It's why Jesus spoke in parables, less the "wrong ones" hear and understand and are saved, for it is not for everyone to be saved. Paraphrased but most telling in it's way.

Discernment.... read and understand.

Otherwise you're ever learning and never coming to the truth.

Re: Revelation, only intended for Christ's disciples?
8 years old Received my First Bible on Birthday. (Still next to me)

Sitting in the back of the Church with Family and New Bible in my Hand. Church of Christ, dad and grandparents thought it was essential to attend Church Sunday, Sunday Night and Wednesday Night.

Look over at my brother, a few years older, and he is immersed in the bible. Much better reader then I ever was.

I look at my Bible and flip through it. Wow, so many words, red letters, different books and verses.
Where do I start, so overwhelming?
So much history. So, confused.

Where do I start?

Ahhhhhh, the end of the Bible, what does the last Book in the Bible entail?

Flip to the back of the Bible and I find Revelation.
That is where I started reading.

38 years later still reading.

9. As indicated in Jesus’ messages to Christians in Pergamum and Thyatira, what danger do we need to avoid?

9 We must reject the teachings of apostates. Jesus reproved some in Pergamum for promoting divisions and sects. (Rev. 2:14-16) He commended those in Thyatira who had steered clear of the “deep things of Satan,” and he urged them to “hold fast” to the truth. (Rev. 2:24-26) Weak Christians there who had allowed themselves to be seduced by false teachings needed to repent. What about us today? We must reject any teaching that is opposed to Jehovah’s thinking. Apostates may have “an appearance of godliness,” but they prove “false to its power.” (2 Tim. 3:5) It is easier to identify and reject false teachings when we are diligent students of God’s Word.—2 Tim. 3:14-17; Jude 3, 4.

10 We must not engage in, tolerate, or condone any form of immorality. There was yet another problem in Pergamum and Thyatira. Jesus condemned some in those congregations for not rejecting immorality. (Rev. 2:14, 20) What is the lesson for us? We cannot expect Jehovah to excuse any immoral activity on our part, even if we have served him for many years and presently enjoy a number of privileges. (1 Sam. 15:22; 1 Pet. 2:16) He expects us to maintain his high moral standards no matter how much the world’s standards plummet.—Eph. 6:11-13.

13-14. How are God’s people affected by the events described in Revelation chapter 12?

13 The book of Revelation informs us that God’s people would be persecuted in our day—“the Lord’s day.” Revelation chapter 12 mentions that war breaks out in heaven immediately following the birth of God’s Kingdom. Michael—the glorified Jesus Christ—and his armies fight against Satan and the demons. (Rev. 12:7, 8) As a result, those enemies of God are defeated and cast down to the vicinity of the earth, bringing untold suffering to the earth and its inhabitants. (Rev. 12:9, 12) But how does this development affect God’s people?

15. Who are represented by the “two witnesses” mentioned in Revelation chapter 11, and what happened to them?

15 Satan instigated an attack on the anointed brothers who were taking the lead in the Kingdom-preaching work. Prominent ones among them were the figurative “two witnesses” spoken of as being killed. * (Rev. 11:3, 7-11) In 1918, eight of the responsible brothers were convicted on false charges, and each was sentenced to a long term of imprisonment. From a human standpoint, it appeared as if the work of these anointed ones had been “killed.”

Who will benefit from the provisions represented by “a river” and by “trees”? (See paragraphs 16-17)

16. What will mankind experience during the Thousand Year Reign of God’s Kingdom?

16 It is thrilling for the anointed to contemplate this city. But those who cherish the earthly hope also have reason to be interested in it. During the Thousand Year Reign of God’s Kingdom, the New Jerusalem will bring countless blessings. John sees these blessings flowing forth as “a river of water of life.” And on both sides of the river are “trees of life” that produce leaves “for the healing of the nations.” (Rev. 22:1, 2) All humans then living will have an opportunity to benefit from those provisions. Gradually, all obedient humankind will be brought to perfection. There will be no more sickness, no more pain, and no more tears of sorrow.—Rev. 21:3-5.

17. What unexpected help have God’s people received, even though they have been the target of Satan’s attacks?

17 Revelation chapter 12 then indicates that God’s people would receive some help from an unexpected source. It would be as if “the earth” swallowed up “the river” of persecution. (Rev. 12:16) This is exactly what has happened. At times, the more stable elements of Satan’s world, such as certain judicial systems, have come to the rescue of God’s people. Time and again, Jehovah’s servants have won court cases that have allowed them a certain measure of freedom. How have they used this freedom? They have made full use of any opportunities to do the work Jehovah has given them. (1 Cor. 16:9) What does this work include?
