We all have heard the resurrection story and how Jesus died for our sins. But do we really know the “WHY?”
Why did he have to die for our sins? How can we know jesus is who he says he is? How can we understand the scriptures and which ones speak of him. In this episode we will take a journey similiar to the one the disciples did on the road to Emmaus when Jesus first appeared to them and opened their understanding to the scriptures.

In this episode we will be looking at Revelation chapter 11 and asking the question who are these two witnesses and what’s their purpose? Some think that the witnesses come on the scene at the beginning of the tribulation while others will try to spiritualize these events to mean something other than what the scriptures say. If you have followed along with me, then you know we are taking the literal approach except for when scripture makes it clear that it’s not. My goal is to help you have a closer more intimate relationship with Jesus and look to extract the truth in scripture that leads us to that place, period. He is the one that holds all truth and life, so Let him be the one who reveals revelation and truth to you. That’s why we pray for revelation, because we aren’t the ones that have it, He is.

In this episode we will be looking at the fifth and Sixth trumpet judgments. These next two trumpets, will give us a demonic perspective, instead of a heavenly one as we will literally see all hell break loose on the earth. All the judgments prior to these were warning shots, as they were not specifically directed at man, but creation. They were a wakeup call. But now we see the last three trumpets and the three woes all deal with mankind specifically.
The big question with these judgments, is why would God release demons bound in hell to torment man on earth? And on top of that, during this time of torment, man will beg for death and it will not come. What is it about this particular judgment that God will not allow man to die? What is he trying to accomplish and what is the purpose? Why not just let them die as in the previous judgments? As we read the text, We need to remember that Gods desire is that all people are saved. So no matter how bad things get, he is either doing or allowing it to happen because judgment must come, but also, to leave room for repentance and salvation.
