    Revelation | Week 2 | Dr. Phillip Martin

    In this message, Dr. Phillip Martin walks through Revelation 4 verse by verse and takes the throne room of God completely apart. You'll hear: What the Jasper stone (clear as diamond) and the Sardius stone (blood red as a Ruby) reveal about who God is — his brilliance and his coming wrath Why those two stones were the first and last on the high priest's breastplate, representing Reuben ("behold the son") and Benjamin ("son of my right hand") What the rainbow around the throne means, why green is its dominant color, and why it is God's covenant promise visible from the moment you step into heaven Who the 24 elders are and why Dr. Martin believes they represent the Raptured Church already established in heaven before the Tribulation begins What the thunder, lightning, and seven torches of fire around the throne reveal about the Holy Spirit — the Great Comforter who will become the Great Consumer for those who rejected him Who the four living creatures are, how Ezekiel described the exact same beings in Ezekiel 1 and 10, and how they connect all the way back to the garden of Eden Why Satan himself was once a cherub around the throne of God — and why it matters that the same type of angel will now help pour out God's judgment on sin Why "Holy, holy, holy" is the only attribute of God spoken in threefold — and what the angels are really saying when the rest of the world can't reconcile God's wrath with his love This is a deep-study teaching on Revelation 4, part of the ongoing Revelation series at The Grove Church. Scripture: Revelation 4; Ezekiel 1; Ezekiel 10:15; Ezekiel 28

    Revelation | Week 1 | Dr. Phillip Martin

    What do you do when life won't stop beating you down? Dr. Phillip Martin walks through three powerful pieces of Scripture to show why the single greatest thought you can have in the middle of pain is the thought of heaven. Paul was lowered out of a building in a basket to escape people trying to kill him — and right after that, he wrote about being caught up to the third heaven, seeing inexpressible things, and then coming back to boast in his weaknesses. John stepped through an open door in Revelation 4 and described what Paul couldn't — a throne room of breathtaking glory, a rainbow of covenant promise, lightning and thunder of divine justice, and angels who never stop saying holy, holy, holy. In this episode you'll hear: Why Paul saw heaven but refused to describe it — and what it did to his perspective on suffering What John saw in Revelation 4 that explains Paul's radical contentment in pain Why the rainbow over God's throne is the first thing you'll see when you get to heaven — and what it promises you Why God's answer to Paul's thorn in the flesh wasn't removal — it was a vision of heaven What "My grace is sufficient for you" really means and where those words come from Why Jesus chose the Lord's Supper — not a survival plan — as his final gift to his disciples before the cross How heaven puts every temporary pain in perspective when you know what's waiting for you This message includes Communion and serves as the introduction to the new/continued series through the Book of Revelation at The Grove Church. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:1–10; Revelation 4; John 14
