Group of blog posts written applying the Inmillenialism Prophetic Model onto the Book Of Revelation.
God loves order and design. He often uses structure and repetition in his creation. The palm tree in this image is an example of both. As we apply inmillennialism to the book of Revelation, we see the structure God used. He instructed John to “write the things that thou hast…
Churches are not often concerned about false Jews today. If someone identifies themselves as a Jew, people do not ask for verification. And they shouldn’t.
