Any study in the book of Revelation must focus upon one key theme. The first five words of this book, "THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST", declares the THEME of this book in its entirety. The aim/objective/intention is to reveal HIM, JESUS, THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD...as it is as well with every other book in the Bible. When we make our focus about man, we are eschewed, or moved away from the place of our Beginnings. When we take our eyes, and attention away from JESUS, THE WORD/JESUS, THE LAMB/JESUS, THE SAVIOR/JESUS, THE LORD/JESUS, THE KING we make a complete detour around the very center of all that our life and living are about. We should take note that this is not a book called, Revelations, as being plural.It is in fact a book called, "REVELATION" as being singular. It is all about Him. There are actually Three REALMS of Revelation: (to reveal)1] Natural/Outer Court/External/Physical2] Artificial/Inward Court/Internal/Mental3] Eternal/Inner Court/Infinite/SpiritualThe dispensational understanding came into being, by those who had no infilling, nor liberty in the Holy Spirit. If, according to JOHN 14, 15, AND 16, THE WORD OF GOD, as well as GOD'S ETERNAL PLAN, cannot be interpreted properly unless given inspiration by THE HOLY SPIRIT, then it must be concluded that the current volume from which many ministries and believers draw assumptions GOD'S PLAN, are at best inaccurately depicting what it was that GOD was trying to share with THEIR CREATION. Most of what we call "Revelation Study" is AN OVERVIEW OF LAST DAYS EVENTS. Most of these events are the catastrophic exaggerations of hireling parrots, who only wish to sell books, or get a spot on T.V. THIS IS NOT WHAT REVELATION IS ABOUT. If this book is to be given the serious consideration deserved as being THE WORD OF GOD, all conclusions MUST have GOD'S CENTER AND FOCUS AND OUTCOME REVEALED IN THE PERSON OF JESUS, THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD. Without such intent, any interpretation will nullify the TRUTH, as GOD pre determined its purpose to be. "Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: ...". ISAIAH 46:8-10 The first five words of this book identify and explain everything within this volume; much of which has been otherwise, sensationalized through "parroted teaching" having no anointing, nor are such teachings being led of GOD'S SPIRIT How is it that so many take for granted that those authors to which they claim to receive understanding are neither filled with THE SPIRIT'S LEADING, nor do they have AN INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE GOD OF ALL LIVING. How can this writer make such claims? Simple There is no eternal life evident in the fear mongering, last day event stupidities, and untold laziness toward never taking the time to mediate and listen to the voice of God's forever leading by the unconditional order of LOVE'S DOMAIN Whatever is of GOD ought to have one, or all of three points LIFELIGHTLOVEWhatever is of GOD. . .carries one or all three of these GOD TAUGHT POINTS

You, Oh God, my Creator, my Life, my Well-Being are the MAJESTY of my existence; and in no other way could You have fulfilled Your purpose in me/through me other than to make me in Your image, after Your likeness. I am the reflection made of You, Who is the Original.I AM an Original made from The Original.The Gospel according to John is quite different in character from the three synoptic gospels. It is highly literary and symbolic. It does not follow the same order or reproduce the same stories as the synoptic gospels. To a much greater degree, it is the product of a developed theological reflection and grows out of a different circle and tradition. It was probably written in the 90's of the first century.The Gospel of John begins with a magnificent prologue, which states many of the major themes and motifs of the gospel, much as an overture does for a musical work. The prologue proclaims Jesus as the preexistent and incarnate Word of GOD WHO has revealed the Father to us. After the account of the seven signs, the "HOUR" of Jesus arrives, and the author passes from sign to reality, as he moves into the discourses in the upper room that interpret the meaning of the passion, death, and resurrection narratives that follow. The whole gospel of John is a progressive revelation of the glory of God's only Son, WHO comes to reveal the Father and then returns in glory to the Father. The author's purpose is clearly expressed in what must have been the original conclusion of his gospel at the end of John, chapter 20: ..."Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His] disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written that you may come to] believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that through this belief you may have life in His Name."

Is HEALING a valid promise or just an illusion created by some magician, or minister wanting a "fast buck"? Charlatans abound; and magicians like "Simon Acts 8:9]" constantly mesmerize the unwitting soul into believing what their ministry has, is what everyone needs. RESTORATION of Health is about a GREAT EXCHANGE in one's LIVING By many creeds and dogmas, the pilgrim in pursuit of God begins an arduous excursion, leading them toward many pitfalls of unsound and unscriptural beliefs. Most dogmas are about one man's control over others. These things are NOT OF GOD WHY? Because they do not produce a lifestyle that exemplifies THE RESURRECTED LIFE OF CHRIST JESUS through the believer. Healing is one of those topics that demand answers, as well as a response to such answers. Regardless of whether or not we believe what we have been told, the WILL OF GOD IS TO HEAL . This is the fact of the Scriptures read and studied. Without such assurance, there is no security available enough to override one's personal concerns or fears. Wherever Jesus went, He ministered with compassion and healed the sick. Christ's example showed an interconnection with salvation as many believed following their healing. Healing is for the physical ills of the human body, and the psyche of the human mind. If the life-force/spirit in man GENESIS 2:7; 1CORINTHIANS 6:17, is joined as ONE with the Holy Spirit as God; then, there is no lack, no error, no need in this joining to/of SPIRIT for training of any kind. Healing is about LEARNING to adapt, LEARNING to accept, and LEARNING to agree with what God SPOKE, since before time, or humanity began.

Faith positions Himself in Patience, confident of Their ability to provide the appearance of Grace. In the Faith of God is the gifting given to every believer, by God, and this Faith given is HIS OWN FAITH Therefore, every believer can be confident in knowing that the same FAITH that created the universe, humanity, and everything else that exists is GOD

The Seed of every Pattern-thought positions growth for the challenge continued, and contrasts the building of Faith, arranging every challenge of behavior. To the degree we allow Him to change us, becomes the measure of His increase, in appearing through us, to the world around us. From out of the secret place, IN HIM, He presents Himself toward every interference, every hindrance, and every external suggestion. MATTHEW 6:6 "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly".

Instruction provides Wisdom by remembering the unchang-ing Grace securing and confirming every pattern-thought out of the Finished Work; Any part of a believer's increase that deals with Wis-dom provided emerges out of the remembrances that reveal the GRACE of God through the likeness of His unchanging character. Every part of God's own character portrays even the smallest of features that makes one remember Who He is Establish Patience, while revealing purpose through begin-nings in the Finished Work; Each step believers take, there is a portrait image of God Himself. Patience is the strategy that best describes His work within the believer. It is the patient, longsuffering attitude of God that turns the hearts of humanity toward Him. This is the Book of James... learning about a LIVING THAT PREVAILS

We have a choice to make. We can hold onto our anxieties, fears, and stresses. On the other hand, we can let Christ's PEACE "rule in our hearts"...Our natural tendency is to allow troubles to cause us to fret. But over the years, in the light of Scriptures like these, we learn (and are still learning) to let the PEACE of Christ rule in our heart, to deliberately turn our cares over to Him and consciously allow Him to replace them with His own PEACE. The peace of God is not the result of some formula. It is not something you can produce with magic. Rather, it is a result of relationship with the living God, The God who cannot be put into a neat little box. If you are struggling with doubt or worry, you can just bet that your mind is focused somewhere else, probably on yourself and your problems. Out of this theory, philosophy, relationship...humanity's members find the principles of Peace that provide the inclu-sion of His Person, Presence, and Power from within the very PEACE of HIMSELF He offers freely.... GOT PEACE? could be titled GOT PEACE ...offering the very substance of living creating the lifestyle known as, "KINGDOM LIVING".

The man or woman that is under the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ carries with them an air of confidence that outweighs any attempt of mortal beings to manipulate. They weigh any counsel given them by their covering's wisdom, yet the final tally finds direction and choice in concerted prayer. Think about it When we recall those in our lifetime that we have admired we remember them as those who "have it all together". An intercessor is never so true as when against the out-cry of their flesh and reasoning there is a deference to obey the promptings of the Spirit in the inner man. I have no authority of my own since I met The Christ; my authority is because of whose I am in Christ Jesus. With that knowledge is a rest that cannot compare with anything found in this life. Because He is mine; I am His I live in Him; He lives in me.

Religion (Man's ideas about God's laws.) trains-/dictates/demands/orders a person, through its private interpretation, to focus on self, and not on the Lord. REMEMBER: The Word of God, rightly divided, will only, always, produce the LIFE OF GOD as its result/outcome/effect. If our salvation is OF Him, should it not also follow that the WORK begin OF Him, BY Him, and THROUGH Him, and not of ourselves.? Ephesians 2:8-9 If our salvation is OF Him, then it must follow, that the what/the why/the when/the where of one's living is shown-/manifested/outlined through the action of one's belief. If the FAITH we move by, of, and through must be His, and not of ourselves. Then the action called faith, proves it must be ABOUT Him, the Christ, and not about us. How then, is the believer to offset the things of the world that are so close to them in their own living.? In short, what do we do, when we do not know what to do? Simply put, the thoughts accepted, the words used, the actions acted upon, must show the will of mind/soul choosing to declare/proclaim/speak the will of the Lord. This is the will of the Lord ONLY COMING OUT OF HIS WORD. Such declarations/proclamations-/speaking must find their substance out of the Word of God's provision. The hope/the faith/the support/the comfort/the relief of His Word, provides the fullness in understanding His FINISHED WORK. This FINISHED WORK is not the work of the believer, but is shown by the believer's yielding to God's Work finished, through the SPIRIT'S revelation. This is the work of another three-folded cord.
