Where is the Church in the Book of Revelation?

Some teach that the Church will be raptured before the events that begin in Revelation 4:1. This teaching is based on the argument that since the term Church is not used in chapters 4–21 of Revelation, the Church must no longer be on earth at that time.

THE BRIDAL PARADIGM OF KINGDOM MINISTRY AT THE END-OF-THE-AGE

Then the Kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the Bridegroom. (Mt. 25:1)

Ten Expressions of God’s Beauty

THE THREE PRIMARY DESCRIPTIONS OF GOD’S BEAUTY (REV. 4; REV. 1; SONG 5)

The purpose of this session is to provide a general overview of God’s beauty. We will bring three key passages together into ten categories so as to give a road map to study God’s beauty.
