Revelation 18 Commentary
Revelation 18 Commentary Chapter 18 gives the picture of “current Babylon”. She exists during the church age. The call for God’s people to come out ‘Her’ is a call to repentance.

These formats are later “management” structures to aid reading and referencing. We closed chapter 12 with the dragon (identified as satan) waging war against the woman’s offspring (the church). 12v17. So the period covered is whatContinueContinue reading “Revelation 13 Commentary”

Revelation 11 Commentary
Revelation 11 Commentary Can it get any more complex than this? Probably no. But these lines aren’t without any clues. The two witnesses look like the famous dual, Moses and Elijah, going by the signs they perform.
