Stand Fast!

Editor: David Maas

Believers prepare for the Apostasy and the coming Man of Lawlessness by committing themselves to the traditions received from the Apostles . After explaining the coming “ Apostasy ” and the “ Man of Lawlessness ,” Paul instructed believers on how to avoid the coming deception and thereby find themselves standing “ blameless ” before Jesus when he arrives on the Day of the Lord. We must “ stand fast ” by adhering to the teachings and “ traditions ” the Church has received from the Apostles.

L'Agneau Messianique

Editor: David Maas
Image
L'Agneau immolé est le Messie dans l'Apocalypse qui triomphe et règne sur les Nations et les Rois de la Terre . Dans la prédication populaire, Jésus est devenu le “Lion rugissant de Juda” qui lancera bientôt son cri de prédateur alors qu'il tue ses ennemis. Contrairement à l'homme de Nazareth, ce roi guerrier détruira tous ceux qui lui résistent alors qu'il impose son royaume aux volontaires et aux réticents. Il n'est plus le sauveur qui s'est soumis à une mort injuste pour sauver le monde. Le  Livre de l'Apocalypse  ne nous dit-il pas qu'il est le Lion messianique?

The Messianic Lamb

Editor: David Maas
Image
The Slain Lamb is the Messiah in Revelation who overcomes and reigns over the Nations and the Kings of the Earth . In popular preaching, Jesus has become the “ Roaring Lion of Judah ” who will soon unleash his predatory cry as he slays his enemies. Unlike the man from Nazareth, this warrior-king will destroy everyone who resists him as he imposes his kingdom on the willing and the unwilling. No longer is he the savior who submitted to an unjust death to save the world. Does not the  Book of Revelation  tell us that he is the Messianic Lion?

The Ruler of Kings

Editor: David Maas

Jesus, the Faithful Witness, now reigns supreme over the Kings of the Earth, and he is shepherding the nations to the Holy City of New Jerusalem . Jesus is called the “ Ruler of the Kings of the Earth ” in the Prologue of Revelation . This declaration is made in the present tense since his sovereignty over the Earth is based on his Death and Resurrection. He does not rule by hereditary right, economic power, or military might, but because of his redeeming death. The slain “ Lamb ” is the one who sits on the Throne. His authority extends even over “ Death and Hades .”

The Man of the Spirit

Editor: David Maas
Image
Jesus is the Anointed Son of God, and from the start, his life was characterized by the empowering presence of the Spirit . When an angel informed Joseph that the child carried by Mary was “ conceived of the Holy Spirit ,” it indicated that something more than just a miraculous birth was about to unfold. From the beginning, the activity of the Spirit dominated the life of Jesus of Nazareth.  He was “ Jesus, the one called Christ ,” the “ Anointed One ,” the long-awaited Messiah of Israel.
