Grace & Peace: Revelation #3

Douglas Wilson on January 15, 2016

Grace and Peace

“At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Ps. 16:doug-wilson-revelation-311)

“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty” (Rev. 1:7–8).

This is a good place to note that the book of Revelation is simply saturated with citations from the Old Testament. This short passage takes material from at least two places, and those places help throw light on what John is talking about here. “Coming on the clouds” is from Daniel 7:13, and looking on Him whom “they have pierced” is from Zechariah 12:10.  [Read more…]

Grace & Peace: Revelation #2

Douglas Wilson on January 1, 2016

Grace and Peace

“At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Ps. 16:11)

“John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (Revelation 1:4–6).

John is writing to the seven churches of Asia Minor, modern day Turkey, which churches are subsequently named in chapters two and three of Revelation. They are the churches of Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea. More will be said about each of them in turn. [Read more…]

Grace & Peace: Revelation #1

Douglas Wilson on December 1, 2015

Grace and Peace

“At thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore” (Ps. 16: 11)

“The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand” (Rev. 1:1–3).

Throughout the book of Revelation, the earth has many plagues that rain down upon it. Over the last two douglas-wilson-revelation-1thousand years, the book of Revelation has itself been treated to nearly the same number of interpretations, some of them the size of hailstones. In the course of this study, we will endeavor not to do any of that ourselves, at least not on purpose.
