This is the third book in a three-part study of the book of Revelation. Part I covered the first three chapters of Revelation, Jesus and the seven churches. Part II covers Revelation 4 - 14, John's vision of heaven with the glory of God followed by the opening of the seven seals of the scroll.This book covers Revelation 15 - 22, God's wrath as the seven plagues and seven bowls are poured out on the earth. All the judgments of God are covered though the return of Jesus Christ. Finally, the new heaven and earth are studied to conclude the series. About the AuthorRay Ruppert and his wife Terri have been life group (home Bible studies) leaders at Canyon Hills Community Church (CHCC) for nineteen years. They are currently serving as flock leader for four life groups. For several years, Ray has been writing questions for the church's life groups. The questions are based on the sermons at CHCC. Ray received his Master of Arts in Theological Studies from Liberty University Baptist Theological Seminary.Forward by Dr. Dwaine Braddy - Retired professor of Bible and Pastoral Ministries for 26 years at Northwest University, Kirkland, Washington.Mr. Ruppert has produced an effective study of the Book of Revelation as his use of questions followed by answers engage the student or group studying Revelation. He emphasizes the key principle of what the text meant THEN before what it means NOW, which I believe are crucial to understanding Revelation. The outline he used for the messages to the 7 churches is the same as I used when I taught Revelation at Northwest University. While I did not do an exhaustive evaluation of his studies, his interpretation corresponds to mine in areas such as the first seal in chapter 6 and the two witnesses in chapter 11.I commend Mr. Ruppert for the research, time and I'm sure, prayer that he has put into these three study guides, which I believe can lead one, whether a new believer or an "old-timer" in the faith like me, to desire to study this book that deals with lessons for today's church and events leading up to Christ's 2nd Coming, God's final Judgments, and the New Heavens and the New Earth! If he is able to present this class at our church, I for one would attend it. Shalom good friend and Maranatha, even so come LORD Jesus!
