When I began reading the book of Revelations it became an eye opener for me. God wanted it to be the last book of the bible written. The books of the Old Testament were written to show doctrine and history. This history was so people could see how God was involved with and helped man. It also showed what man did when God tried to help him. God put in place a direction for man. How he could live a good life on this earth. Man didn’t have the power to live the life. So God set up a system for man to receive forgiveness of sin. The books of the New Testament were written to show doctrine and history. This history was so people could see how God was involved with and helped man. God put in place a direction for man. How he could live a good life on this earth. But this time, God gave the power back to man to be able to live a good life. The book of Revelations is about those people who chose not to use the power of God to live the life He has for us. It shows how all hell breaks loose on the earth. And just as the final seal is opened, the bible says that there was silence in heaven for a span of half an hour. There is never silence in heaven. The saints are always singing. People are talking to God. Children laughing and playing. I asked God what it was about. He said this was the last time that man had a chance to come back to Him. And He mourned.
