Loved reading your epistle on revelation. I cannot believe i couldnt see it before how it always speaks of works,or wrath,rather than grace. So many have trouble with grace i think because it always seems we have to do something to be accepted whether it be our family,spouse,friends,boss,we always feel we have to do something to be accepted,rather than just be ourselves and let grace be sufficient.

Shawn,

New-er Greet: Grace, Mercy, and Peace,
from God, our Father, and our Lord JC.

Thank you, of ye/you. I assume you mean the web page about Evidence that Paul, not John, is the Author of Revelation: Details: http://www.godshew.org/AuthorOfRevelation.html

It's one of the first things that I was taught directly by the Spirit, after my own seven year study of Revelation first failed. It (study1 of study1/study2) was like Eccl 12:12 says: much study a weariness of the flesh). So I had to trash it all (a truck load of books, tapes, videos, and notes, also many bibles). Then I asked God for wisdom according to James 1:5-8, which clarifies if you lack wisdom ask God, but ask the God who "upbraideth not" (not God who bites & smites), and also do it "nothing wavering" (not like a child who gets tossed to<-->fro by winds of doctrine).

Notice, in my verse by verse commentary on Revelation,
Details: http://www.godshew.org/Revelation.htm
I deliberately quit at Revelation chp 3; But did put links to Rev 13 and The End. The reason is the Spirit told me to do it, since after Rev 3 a door opening is as a trap door. So I hope readers hyperdrive to The End, and then 'think from the end', in order to "endure unto the end" of the "shew", by doing the end "run" of g-race along "with patience", as noted in Hebrews 12. BTW, the phrase 'think from the end' is a phrase I now use, but it's a quote of Wayne Dyer, the motivational speaker.

My page: "The Revelation of St John The Divine" (official title) is now in top 10 search results for google, bing, yahoo; And I now have 100s of key words & phrases in top 10 position with top 3 search engines, which most SEO ppl only dream of. Yet such are mostly words & phrases only truth seekers will search, prompted by the Spirit. I see you are among such truth seekers.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

Daniel, you wouldn't happen to have any kind of Greek Lexicon that you use would you? I'm trying to find something better than this one.

HereticAdam,

Yes, 2 are on my Bibles (tools) web page:
http://www.godshew.org/Bibles.htm

- Hebrew and Greek Strong's Concordance for KJV:
http://www.apostolic-churches.net/bible/strongs.html

- Blue Letter Bible Search for all versions:
http://www.blueletterbible.org/index.cfm

I use both, but prefer Blue Letter in KJV mode,
as it gives all results, by clicking through it.
It's how I discovered 2 kinds of 'agape' in KJV:
- "charity" (agape2): "never faileth": 1Cor 13:8.
- "love" (agape1): can still "wax cold": Mt 24:12.
So if ppl wanna pass endurance test (l-o-n-g run),
called "holiness with sobriety", put on "charity",
as love(agape) can wax cold when iniquity abounds.
http://www.godshew.org/Charity7.htm

That is why I say the KJV is best for study,
and all others, incl'g NKJV are perversions,
since they replace "charity" with "love". Folly.
Love (agape1) fails as often as people divorce;
But charity(agape2) never fails; Yet for clarity
it's only when put on above forgiving one another;
For 1Cor 13:5 clarifies charity "thinketh no evil",
so Col 3:12-15 says it's even above forgiving ppl.
For when studied out, even forgiveness has f-laws.
Eg: Better mode Jesus said "forgive them", but
he got "numbered with the transgressors" = Oops.
http://www.godshew.org/ShewBread.htm#Forgiveness

So charity (agape2) is the higher calling: harmless,
and love (agape1) is only a high calling: jeopardy.
Hence Paul says be not highminded (puffed up),
for he taketh away agape1 to establish agape2.
Q & A: Love or Charity? Charity never faileth!
http://www.godshew.org/Charity.htm

Happy studying, but do also consider this:
- study2: 2Tim 2:15 ends with no shame (higher)
- study1: Eccl 12:12 ends with weariness (high)
Point: there's two of everything to sort out;
For every good "mystery" has lots of twists to it,
right up to the very end of the comparative shew:
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all.
Amen.

Thankyou Daniel, You ever heard about the Fullness of Time? I am sure it's on this nifty page somewhere. Anyway, I have been reading up on Charles Spurgeon a little. That Man knows his stuff and is out of this generation, it's weird how some are gifted to last.

HereticAdam,

Newer Greeting: Grace, Mercy, and Peace to all,
from God, our Father, and Jesus Christ our Lord.

Re: "fullness of time"; See Galatians 4 allegory.
(only f-law has a "fullness of time"; not grace)
Fullness of time refers to time's up for f-law.
Only f-law has expiry date, expired in Lk 16:16.
(beheading John signifies end of law & prophets)
Hence eat f-law as spiritual "feed" is poison-us,
even if better of bosko/poimaino feeds in John 21.
For of time past/last days = also peril-us: 2Tim3;
And of Mt 22's law1/law2, 2nd is like 1st: f-law.
For along with love thy neighbour comes hate enemy.
So another law: love neighbour: is death: Rom 7:10.
http://www.godshew.org/AnotherLaw.htm

Law is spiritual, but also "spiritual wickedness".
(so wrestle against such, but only in high places)
Law is high, even right on high, but highmindead.
(so the higher calling is "be not highminded" x2)
Law is good, but also evil, being both good + evil.
(so if law not put away, then "evil concupiscence)
Law is just, but also unjust judge does avenge-ing.
(so hear what the unjust judge: law: actually says)
Law is holy, but also listed among unholy: 2Tim 3.
(so when it's unholy, turn away, let such vanish)
http://www.godshew.org/Vanish.html

So re fullness of time for f-law, See Luke 16:16.
There it clarifies the law & the prophets endead
with the beheading of John the Baptist = Elijah2.
For Elijah was the most vengeful of the prophets,
and John the Baptist spake of wrath(law) to come.
Moses & Elijah spake of decease at transfiguration,
where it's fear-ful to enter such cloud-y law/law.
So beheading John was like deadly wound to Beast1,
which gets healed in Rev 13 by law2 of law1/law2.
http://www.godshew.org/LawLaw.htm

Sadly, many world leaders now saying 'rule of law',
as if it's NWO: New World Order, but it's dis-order;
And it's causing stable to be unstable. Eg: Canada,
leader: Harper: is not yet "sharper", still f-lawed.
Sharper is sharper than any two-edged sword: law/law.
For sharp two-edged sword is vengeance + punishment.
Details: http://www.godshew.org/TwoEdgedSword.html

Saying 'rule of law' also causing unstable weather;
For "law worketh wrath", and it can get very nasty.
Eg: NZ is having drought, other places having flood.

So the shew ends with higher grace than under grace:
The grace of our Lord J-->C [be/is] with you-->all. Amen.
