SCHOOL OF ESCHATOLOGY =
"End Times Study"
This is where we study the book of Revelation and see the power and magnificence of the Christ of all creation, and how the New Heaven and New Earth will be the new "real estate" of His domain.
Course Description
We will make a study of symbols, histories, connecting Bible passages and other means of research in order to better understand this apocalyptic book. This eschatology course will include studies on angels, the Great Tribulation, heaven and hell, Israel's place in these events, the worldwide assembly of Believers from all time, the rapture, the Millennium, the Book of Revelation, and where we - here and now - fit into all of this.
What's the Purpose?
As we examine the doctrine of eschatology (“last things”) we will study God's justice and sovereignty and He brings all existence back under His care. Through the events such as the Rapture, Tribulation, Armageddon, Millennium, and Eternal State we will see how God dictates the final judgments against man's rebellion against Jesus Christ.
Revelation is the first and only prophetic book of the New Testament. Within its 22 chapters are symbols and predictions of the coming age of Jesus. Within it's study we see how Jesus is to be truly revealed: as the King of all Kings.
