Course Description:
When Jesus ascended into heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father, he told onlookers that one day He would come again. Ever since then, believers have been anxiously awaiting the King's return. In the Book of Revelation, the Apostle John has penned a beautiful picture of what that homecoming will look like. He speaks of glowing lamps, colorful horses, and a heavenly city with streets of gold. Yet what do the images mean? Are they merely allegorical or is John recalling a literal truth about the future? In this course, Dr. Wilbur Smith explores possible interpretations of the End Times. Using sound Biblical exegesis with historical and contextual facts, Dr. Smith helps students study the book afresh while offering insight into Jesus' return.
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
- Grasp the message of Revelation.
- Understand apocalyptic literature and its role in the canon.
- Articulate possible interpretations of the book.
- Recognize God has a plan in history.
- Apply the book's message to life and ministry.
