"And they all lived happily ever after." There is something inside of us that desires a good ending to a story. All the classic fairy tales follow this rule to end on a high note with everyone living happy together forever. The story of Revelation is even better than a fairy tale because it is true. Although there is wrath and judgement in this book, the great promise that we get from God is that: "All who call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Acts 2:21). Join Matt, Jonathan, and Stephen in this final episode of Revelation_Directors Cut.

For centuries humanity has been obsessed with creating stories of characters with the magical power to fix anything with the move of a wand or the snap of a finger. Stories like: Disney's "Fantasia", the old cartoon "Popeye the Sailor Man", or even "Harry Potter". While these are all fictional stories that every human could only dream of, the story of God creating a "New Heaven" and a "New Earth" are very much real! Join Matt, Stephen, and Jonathan as they discuss the new creation found in Revelation 21.

At this point in Revelation, Armageddon  is over and the anti-christ and the dragon are done for. However, Satan is still around. Also, everyone left on earth that hasn't chosen to follow Christ is killed and sent to Hades. What more is left to do? Join Jonathan, Matt, and Stephen to find out the next step of God's master plan in Revelation 20. 

What are your favorite battle scene speeches in cinematic history? My top two are: the Braveheart speech and Russell Crowe's final monologue from Gladiator. We all have this picture of what a great war hero looks like. However, Jesus' final battle will be much greater! Join Matt, Stephen, and Jonathan as they discuss the battle that is already won in Revelation 19:11-21.

"Here comes the bride..." Any of you married ladies remember the day of walking down the aisle? Do you remember how happy everyone was to see you? What about the reception afterwards? The church is referred to as the "Bride of Christ". This is, of course, a metaphor used to show how much Jesus loves us. Join Matt, Stephen, and Jonathan as they discuss this "Marriage Reception" found in Revelation 19:1-10.

In this episode, we take the time to read and answer YOUR questions. Revelation is a complicated book, and there are a lot of concepts left open for interpretation. While we can't find all of the answers, the one thing we can be sure of is that "Our Hope Is on the Throne". Join Matt, Jonathan, and Stephen as they unpack these questions from fellow listeners.
