- Episode 14 from the series The End Is Near? with Skip Heitzig. Watch the complete series:
• The End Is Near?
I admit that the book of Revelation can appear mysterious, full of curious symbols and imagery. But it’s actually more straightforward than you may think. If you hold to a grammatical/historical view, this book provides a chronological flow of future history. It presents Jesus evaluating His church, judging His world, proclaiming His gospel, saving His nation, and establishing His kingdom. For this week and next, we will consider the flow of the future.
This teaching is from the series The End Is Near? with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Church.

This is the most gifted preacher I have ever heard
Yeah he is great. I also really enjoy Dr Charles Stanley
This was definitely a timely and prophetic message. Most gifted though.. I don't know have you read some Charles Spurgeon?! The Treasury of David. Talk about gifted.. his words are poetic, piercing, prophetic.
Every Christian should watch this message.. thank you Lord for the life of Ptr Skip Heitzig
Skip teaches with authority--that is a major blessing!
Amazing! Thank you Pastor Skip for your teachings. They are very clear 🥰
I remember the day, probably 20+ years ago, when I was sitting in service, and Skip was going through Revelation. I remember when he read Revelation 4:1- he didn't offer an explanation of what the meaning was until a bit later in the sermon, but it hit me like a lightening bolt! That was THE rapture! I miss attending Calvary so very much.
I also wish that the pastors at the church I had been attending in the city where I live now, who do not believe in the rapture, could hear Skip's series on Revelation (and Daniel). Sadly, I don't feel that I can place myself under those pastors' leadership, as the rapture of the church and second coming of Christ are, and should be, central to Christian teaching. I'm thankful for Skip, his ministry, and the gift that God has given him to teach His word.
It makes me happy to hear him say 100% and tomorrow night I get to go to a Banquet that I was invited to, I am so excited
Ordered the book of Skips on Understanding Revelation. Can't wait! Just found Skip on Utube and love how explains the Bible God's Word.
One day we will be taught by Christ Jesus face to face. Amen!
Thank u Pastor for this teaching about revelation. I want more to live holy life because Jesu is coming very soon at any moment. Every believer should always be ready to meet the Lord. Maranatha!
Thank you Lord Jesus for leading me to the channel of Calvary. Pastor Skip is one of the few people who has the eschatological knowledge to help us understand the future events. His teachings are aligned with Amir Tsarfati, Pastor Hamrick, Pastor Nolan, Pastor Jack and Mike Golay. God bless you Pastor Skip.
I agree. But add Gary Hamrick of Cornerstone Chapel in Leesburg, VA. Cornerstone is another Calvary Chapel. Hopefully you will learn from his teaching also. It would be our go to church if we were in the area.🙏🏻✝️
Thank you Pastor for preaching on my FAVORITE book of the Bible. I have easily read it over a hundred times and I could read it hundreds more. In fact it’s one of my favorite books to read before bedtime or when I’m unable to sleep. I haven’t met anyone else like me but I know we are out there. I’m frustrated that more churches aren’t preparing the flock and preaching the importance of the book of Revelation. I’m looking forward to Lordwilling following the sermons. Please keep me and my family in prayer, I’ve been up unable to sleep due to having Covid. I came across this comforting message, I’ve listened a few times and even played it a few more as I slept. God Bless 🙏🏽
I invite you to try the Final Message: Understanding the book of Revelation. It is over a 20 year work of love. I revised it and made a 20th Anniversary Edition. It is totally biblical and answers every question you could have on the subject. Check it out, if you can.
@@robertd1652 hey, is it a video on YOU-TUBE?
@@mimilou55 No, sorry it is a book.
It’s my favourite book too ♥️ you should also try Chuck Missler and his exposition of Revelation, Chucks in heaven now but oh boy was he a teacher. Skip I think has picked up the baton and is teaching the flock with truth and clarity. I hear a lot of Chucks sayings when I listen to Skip.
Skip really know how to teach. God blessed him with this intellect and understanding to teach us.
God bless from the Middle East!
The Big Rock Wow! God First! Amen 🙏
Thank you, I'm learning so much and I'm blessed. God bless you more Sir.
Than😅k very much, uou a gifted Holy 🎉Spirit led😅teacher,,,,, ,,
I need a new Bible! My notations fill every page from the stories, analogies, and historical documentaries that are a Heitzig sermon.
thank u Pastor Skip😊
I feel blessed to hear Skip preaching. While i still hold the post trib position, i recognise his anointing in teaching the word and I agree with much of what he said, like about Luther and Calvin.
I don't believe the rapture for me but i believe it is true for some. I believe Heaven is as indevidualized as we are. After all God knows every hair on our heads He liked diversity, He made us with different DNA, and He knows our hearts😊
Revelation is unveiling of our Jesus. Hallelujah!!!
Blessings from Fort Worth, Texas
Really like this teaching , thanks pastor!
My favorite Pastors to listen to are Alistair Begg and John Piper, different voices same message,THE BIBLE.
You are also on this list. With time i have listened and like your approach as well. Thank You!.
😇😇But... that neon screen behind you IS distracting
Certainly Skip is better than most I ever heard. I know of 1 other. Beyond these 2, we all have been cheated by "preachers" nowadays.
AMEN!!!
Time Never Ends Time Is Eternal! Even if The World Ends Time Will Continue As Time! ☮️
Love the version of the lecturer story that says finally he tipped coffee into the container, there’s always room for coffee with friends
I believe that prophecy is not prediction, it is a news account of what happened in the future.
For a good solid biblical understanding checkout, the Final Message: Understanding the Book of Revelation.
I believe for a good understanding read the Bible and pray. The truth as God wants you to believe will come to you. Eye on the goal❤🙏🙏
The faith of multitudes will be tragically harmed if future events don’t unfold as outlined in these teachings. ✔️
1 Thess 4:16-18 is fufilled in Rev 10. Look at Heb 1:3 then using this interpret Rev 4:3 and apply in Rev 10
Please give me the full revelation study.iwill be grateful.godbless u abundantly and fill u with holy spirit .
Everything just feels pressured
Please where can I find pastor Skip’s complete teaching through the Bible? It is not available on his TH-cam channel.
Thanks
Looking for Calvary Church
Hi Pastor Skip,
Regarding Revelation 5:9-10, the majority of Word-for-Word translations say:
9 And they sang a new song, saying,
“Worthy are you to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation,
10 and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God,
and they shall reign on the earth.” (ESV)
Hence the Elders were NOT singing about themselves and therefore do not represent the Church.
It is interesting that the Church is NOT mentioned in Rev4 and Rev5, which depicts the scene in heaven. Hence the Church is NOT in heaven yet and therefore the Rapture has not taken place yet in Rev5. We also note that the multitude in Rev5 are myriads and myriads of ANGELS and NOT believers.
The multitude of saints from many nations appear only in Rev7, which is after the Sixth Seal. The Rapture and the Wrath of God takes place back-to-back at the Sixth Seal and hence the saints are delivered from the Wrath of God poured out from the Seventh Seal.
Hence the Rapture is Pre-Wrath.
Respectfully yours,
Ronald Lim
Pastor Skip,
I hope you see this. I have tried to get this question answered for a long time. (This is not a gotcha question, there has to be a reason and I think you would know).
When John saw Jesus in his transfigured state in (Mathew 17:1) why did he fall to the ground as if he were dead when he sees him in (Revelation 1:17) since he had already seen Jesus in his transfigured state, couldn't he recognize him?
Might try to email him
Thanks Skip. Can someone answer a question for me. Is the Church, Body, Bride, Wife, Israel (Jews) SEPARATE GROUPS? With a different plan in our future?
Yes, and no. You see Jews could repent right now, that’s what God has wanted this whole time is that they would receive their messiah Jesus Christ, there is 30,000 messianic Jews in Israel right now, but 1/3 of the nation will repent during the tribulation and they will receive their earthly blessings during the 1000 year reign of Christ and his church. Messianic Jews are a part of the church, that’s the dispensation we are in. The years of Israel’s iniquities has come and ended twice now and we are almost done with the third time out for Israel and the seventieth week is involved with this, it’s called the time of Jacob’s trouble, Jacob represents Israel, but just as it’s for the unbelieving Israel it’s also for the unbelieving gentiles/ the rest of the entire earth. The deciples believed and obeyed hints why the church will be the first one’s married to Jesus, along with the tribulation martyrs. Blessed are those who believe without seeing. The ones who get saved and survive the tribulation will be married to the father at the end of the 1000 year reign. Watch soothkeep, Generation2434, Amir Tsarfati, Tom Hughs, there’s some more I can’t remember right now, but you can learn a bunch from these channels!
Let me add God doesn’t want to send his wrath on anyone. Unbelief angers him, and rebellion makes it impossible for him to kindle his anger. Repent and be saved so he can bless you!
To simplify it, yes. There is no Jew or Greek, meaning all who believe become the bride. When it comes to Israel, God is simply going to fulfill His promises and those (Jews or gentiles) that come to Him will also become the bride. The only thing separating the 2 (bride/Jews) is unbelief.
@@rofishy2 Ok, brother, are you ready for the truth? There is NO literal 1000 year kingdom in our future. We are living in the spiritual 1000 years now. It started at the cross and will end when the Lord returns. (Scriptures later) Also, the time of Jacobs trouble is NOT 7 years. Jer30:7 Says DAY. This is man's teaching not what the word of God teaches. You also mentioned the tribulation period is 7 years (Jacob's trouble). There is NOT ONE scripture that teaches a 7 year tribulation. NOT ONE. And NO Dan9:27 does not say that. Again, this is man's teaching. You have been taught (Incorrectly) that the wrath of God is 7 years. Again, man's teaching. NOT one verse that teaches this. This is what Gods word teaches about the WRATH of God. Rev6:17 DAY. Rm2:5 DAY. Zeph 1:15 DAY. (The same as Jacobs trouble) Now for the most important false teaching. The Church, Body, Bride, Wife, Israel (Jews) are SEPARATE GROUPS. This is 100% false. Rm 12:4-5 ONE BODY. 1Cor10:17 ONE bread (Jesus) and ONE BODY. Eph2:16 That he (Jesus) might reconcile BOTH (Jew and Gentile) unto God in ONE BODY. Eph3:6 That the Gentiles might be fellow heirs and of the SAME BODY. Col1:18 That he (Jesus) is the head, THE head of the BODY, THE CHURCH. So, brother, where do you see SEPARATE groups? If there is ONE BODY, why do you believe in a pre-trib rapture? If people would only study and BELIEVE what Jesus taught, they would put away these false teachings. In Jn6:39-40,44,54. Jesus said he would raise (Resurrect) believers on the LAST DAY. Then in Jn12:48 Jesus said the unbelievers would be JUDGED on the LAST DAY. Was Jesus talking about TWO last days? OF COURSE NOT!!! Have you ever asked yourself why pre-trib pastors and teachers almost never use scriptures of what Jesus taught? Just like Jn5:28-29 Jesus said ALL THAT ARE IN THE GRAVES SHALL COME FORTH (Just and unjust together) Jesus never taught a time period in these verses. Anyone that does is changing the WORD OF GOD. Yours in Christ
@@markhauserbible7168 lol I suppose there’s no real heaven either. Your not bright dude if you don’t believe in God’s literal word go be an apostate already and stop pretending
Does anyone know that the 10 kings from Daniel 7 and Revelation 17 are not the same?
Yes they are, BUT they are not 10, just like the 10 Brides are not 10, the number 10 means *COMPLETION*. And thus both refers unto COMPLETE Europe reunited.
@@MrRondonmon You are right about not being a literal 10 nations, but is ALL nations. America, China, Russia, ect.
The 10 are the same, but instead of kings, they are really kingdoms.
@@markhauserbible7168 No, the 10 are simply the E.U. why do people think a picture of the Mediterranean Sea Region suddenly turns into a global kingdom in the end times? One reason is they do not understand the WHOLE EARTH simply means the whole dirt or earth being spoken about. Both Nebuchadnezzar and Greece was said o rule the whole earth also, Neb was told wherever men laid there heads he would be given rule and Greece or the 3rd Beast was said to rule the whole earth and we know Alexander/Greece never ruled India, China or the Scythians (modern day Russia). The WHOLE EARTH or all the land means the Mediterranean Sea Region, because each beast arises from the Great [Mediterranean] Sea. This has been my calling for 38 years, but only in the last 7 or 8 years has God started revealing these end time understandings.
Thee will be no United States, the 1/3 of the trees/lands/ships etc. that burn up is more of a DESTINATION, this Apophis Asteroid (Rev. 8) is going to hit in te Pacific Ocea just off the California Coastline. Both North and South America are going to basically be wiped out. On a hunch I looked up the Landmass of the two Americas combined, they are 1/3 of the Landmass of the whole world. Then I looked up the Pacific Ocean and it is 1/3 of the water on the surface of the whole earth, but I said to myself, Oceans are just imaginary line named such, to my surprise, NO.......Oceans because of their PHD make-up can not cross over into other oceans !! Now we know why Rev. 16 calls them the Kings of the East, the Anti-Christ and his Beast (The E.U.) are mainly north and west of Israel, however everyone else who joins in will be East of Israel.
Jesus came and had a small ministry ONLY unto the Jews. The Anti-Christ will be the President of the E.U. and his only objective is to conquer the Mediterranean Sea Region, Dan. 11:40-43 DESCRIBES it to a tee, he only conquers that area, and on a map he will look just like Rome i n 117ish AD.
Well isn't 1 set kings and the other set horns?
Although I disagree that all are false prophets I do believe many are. Test the prophets.
The reason Luther and Calvin didn't like the book of Revelation is that they could not make sense of it.
They had been led to believe that this letter called Revelation had been written about AD 95. This places the book 28 years after the invasion of Palestine by Vespasian and Titus to Genocide the Jews for their rebellion against Rome which culminated in the total destruction of Jerusalem and it's Temple AD 70.
If Luther and Calvin had realized that Revelation was written about AD 65, a year or two before the beginning of the Jewish Apocalypse, Armageddon, then the book of Revelations would have made sense to them. 🙂
On Revelation 1:7 & Matthew 24:30.
Revelation 1:7”Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all the tribes of the land shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Mt.24:30”And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the land mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
If you were reading these 2 verses for the 1st time and don’t have the proper translation above then it’s easy to understand why there’s a lot of confusion about the Lords second coming!
In Rev.1:7 and Mt.24:30 the proper translation is “ tribes of the land”!
The majority of the translations have it wrong!
For example -
All the kindreds of the earth.
All people on earth.
All the nations of the earth.
All people’s of the earth.
All the families of the earth.
These verses misrepresent an important factor in precise bible interpretation called “ Audience Relevance “.
The verses above turn a local judgment upon Old Covenant Israel (the tribes of the land) and Christs return sound like every eyeball on the planet is going to see Jesus return on the clouds.
It also takes it out of its historical context creating a false narrative about “WHO” would witness Jesus return and “WHEN” and “WHERE”.
Revelation 1:7 and Matthew 24:30 are a judgment upon the “LAND” not the Globe!
The Greek word Kosmos is never once used describing the judgments in the book Revelation or the Olivet Discourse.
The earth is always equated to the “LAND”.
Young’s Literal Translation gets it right by using the “LAND” in Matthew 24 and the book of Revelation rather than the earth.
In fact the book of Revelation even pinpoints the “LAND” in which it’s referring to.
Three times we see the word for WORLD which in the Greek is “Oikoumene” and is defined as “The Inhabited Roman World.
This same word is used in Luke2:1 where a census went throughout the “world”(Oikoumene) the census only went out only throughout the Roman Empire.
Oikoumene is used Acts17:5 where they turned the “world” upside down not to describe the globe or even nations outside the Roman Empire!
Since Mt:24:30 and Revelation are talking about the same “tribes of the land”(which by the way are not here with us today as well as the Jews and Roman soldiers who had Jesus pierced)and the same return of Jesus in the clouds one must conclude both books are not describing a global sighting of Jesus in our future.
What good would fleeing to mountains in Judea do Mt.24:16 if there was going to be a global mass destruction.
The hour of trail that was (Gk.Mello about to or on the verge of ) to come upon ALL THE WORLD in Rev.3:10 is the Roman Empire (Oikoumene)World not Globe!
The “Oikoumene”world is also mentioned in Rev.12:9 and 16:14-16.The latter where the whole world “Oikoumene”is gathered in a place called Armageddon.Therefore Armageddon is not worldwide!
In Revelation 17&18-16:19-11:8,13-A CITY,A GREAT CITY is identified as the recipients of judgment not the planet or globe or kindreds or people or nations or families of the earth!
I tossed an NIV Bible I had for 35 because it read “Nations of the earth” which keep me in the dark for years.
Having the proper interpretation and respect for Audience Relevance and Time Factors makes a huge difference in how we see eschatology and clearly places the coming of our Lord and Savior in the lifetime of Old Covenant Israel in the first century.
If the the 7 churches refer to 7 periods of church history, doesn’t that contradict the idea of an imminent rapture? It would require the “church age” be completed or fulfilled before the lord can return right? Seems like a really weak position to hold let alone teach and put online for the masses.
It refers to DIVINE COMPLTION (7) and 10 = Completion just as 12 = Fulness, thus the 144,000 the 7000 and the 1/3 in Zech. 13:8-9 all add up to the same number, 3.5-5 million Jews who repent. 12 x 12 x 10 x 10 x 10 is simply God SHOUTING Fulness x Completeness = 144,000 or ALL Israel who repents. 7 X 10 X 10 X 10 is God SHOUTING Divine Completion x Completion or ALL Israel who repents which is the 7000 God has saved unto Himself.
There is no biblical support for 7 periods of church history. So, I don't think we should put a weight to it without the Bible backing it up.
I guess it depends on when/if the periods occurred. I'd personally say Revelation reads like all 7 are present at the same time.
@@arcguardian yeah I think I’m in the same boat. I tend to view the churches as 7 literal church’s but then also a timeless call to all churches/believers past present and future. I don’t like the idea of 7 periods of church history. That’s just too ambiguous for me.
@@mikealdridge5424 Its 7 TYPES of Churches throughout the Church Age. 7 = Divine Completion. The 7 Churches represent all of the type of Churches in the COMPLTE Church Age. Thus in Rev. 4:1 we see the Rapture and the HEREAFTER. (70th week)
Why We Must Be Born Again
The Way Back To Pentecost
When Jesus told Nicodemus, except a man or person be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. St. John 3:5, he was telling him who needed to do it. Now, watch it. Matthew told what to do, Mark told why to do it, Luke told where to do it and John told who to do it. What’s missing? Didn’t nobody tell how to do it, until the great day called Pentecost when Peter stood up to preach.
Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 2:38 KJV
What to do? - repent and be baptized. Who? - everyone of you. How do we do it? - in the name of Jesus Christ. Why do it? for the remission of sins. What’s the result of doing it? - and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. The Jews did it. Look at the 8th Chapter of Act, verse 4, “Therefore they that were scattered abroad went everywhere preaching the Word.” Verse 5 “Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.” Verse 12, “But when they believed Phillip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.”
14. Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John:
15. Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost:
16. (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 8:14-16.
In Acts 2, the Jews did it. In Acts 8, the half Jews did it. In Acts 10, the Gentiles did it and in Acts 19, the Baptist folks did it. They all did it because God said that’s the only way to do it.
Of the 66 books in the entire Bible, there’s only one that don’t fit in with any of the groups. That book is the book of Acts, because the book of Acts is the only book in the Bible that tells you how to get save.
And, until Jesus Christ returns in the clouds to call his church away “1st Peter 2:9-10,” this gospel is to be preached by us to every nation and is still in force today till that great getting up morning when the dead in Christ shall rise first, we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air, so shall we ever be with the lover of our souls.
Will you be saved today, according to the Holy Scriptures? Acts 2:38 KJV is still in force today till God body, “the Bride of Christ is completed.”
The prophet Agubus in NT..Said Paul would be taken captive when he went to Jerusalem. Also he said there was going to be a famine in all the world so they took up a collection for the church in Jerusalem. Those types of prophesying are still valid now. As in th gift of prophesying. Granted most are false . So is it a falsehood to say that God does not speak any more.! Through prophesying.
It’s plainly laid out the way John says and wouldn’t you know it, the last thing that we read before the things that will happen in the future is revelation 3:10, because you have kept the word of my patience, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that shall come upon the whole world. He wasn’t talking to John, he died he’s not a living miracle of over 2000 years old today. This promise is to the church for their faith. The tribulation is for the unbelievers, both Jewish and non Jewish. It’s not hard to figure out. Pre wrath/ no rapture beliefs are demonic and puts no trust in the hood of Christ. I’ll boldly state it because they refuse to stand down in the face of plain statements of scripture. They are the ones who will be ashamed in the taking up of the saints.
Our LORD is a promise keeper; and I’m holding onto His promise that He will keep us from the hour of trial🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Does the Jew even believe that Jesus came
The problem with pre trib believers is when the antichrist sets the stage they don"t recognize him because they reason "it can"t be the antichrist because we are stil here"" pre trib teaching is dangerous not only for the ones who believe in it but also for those who teach it Jeremia 14;14
