Relentless Truth with John Warren

Subscribe ▼ Show Notes God uses signs and symbols to communicate powerful truth in the Revelation. But we can read and interpret this book of the Bible literally. Christ’s Reign Great mystery surrounds the events discussed in Revelation 20. The millennium is a one-thousand-year period, but we are uncertain about events that precede it and follow it. We know that Satan is bound in the bottomless pit by an angel with a chain during this period. We know that we will reign with Christ on the earth, and we know that Satan will be released at the end of this period for one final act of rebellion against God. The wrath of God will be poured out one final time during this epic triumph over evil. It is shocking that people will still be deceived by Satan into opposing God during this period. This chapter says those who oppose the Kingdom of God will be significant in number. The Final Judgement The final judgment of Satan and the false prophet will occur, and they will be cast into the lake of fire for all of eternity. All sin will be judged at this point. Thankfully, those of us who are in Christ will not be judged because our names are written in the Book of Life. We will not encounter the wrath of God! Next week we will look at the New Heaven and New Earth. We will see that God will dwell with us and will wipe away every tear. Praise God for these beautiful promises. This is the great hope that we have in Jesus Christ our Lord. Thank you for listening to Relentless Truth. Please share this episode with your friends and family.

Subscribe ▼ Show Notes Welcome to our sixth episode of Relentless Truth Extra. Today, I discuss an amazing app called Yuka and the grocery store concept that Mayor Mamdani is introducing in New York. Yuka was introduced to our family over a year ago by my physician. It is a free app that is useful for scanning food and cosmetic barcodes to instantly see an easy-to-read health score out of 100. It flags harmful additives, evaluates nutritional quality or ingredient safety, and suggests healthier alternatives. RFK, Jr. has increased awareness and improved our focus on food quality as a nation. Yuka is a tool that goes beyond food type and broad dietary recommendations. Yuka is a product-by-product or food-by-food item resource that doesn’t accept advertising or compensation by interests involved in the food growing or distribution process – or any other individual or corporate interests that might influence outcomes. Yuka provides information that isn’t intuitive. Products that are currently childhood staples are often rated poorly. Multiple products within a product type might have varying ratings based on ingredients. We have been researching our food and eating carefully for about six years, but Yuka was a game-changer for us. In the final few minutes, I discuss Mayor Mamdani’s socialistic grocery store concept. This concept won’t achieve its stated purpose, to provide healthier, lower-cost food for people in areas that don’t have access through the private sector, and it will cost far more than the stated cost estimates if it survives at all. The free market, if unhindered by regulatory restrictions, is the answer the Mayor is looking for here. This train is going to wreck, and it gives me no pleasure watching it happen.

Subscribe ▼ Show Notes We continue to see the word “repent” in our study of Revelation. Even in the face of God’s wrath, those who reject Jesus Christ continue to refuse to repent. This hardness of heart is true of many today who reject Christ entirely and resolutely. In our eschatological section of Revelation, they actually blame God and curse Him. This isn’t passive opposition or apathy. This is aggressive, hardcore opposition to God. Repent The plagues that God uses to pour out His wrath on the earth include sores, the ultimate pollution of all water, darkness, an earthquake, and large hailstones. This is the wrath of God demonstrated in ways the earth has never seen. “It Is Done” After the seven plagues or bowls are poured out, God announces that “it is done.” This war to end all wars seems to end rather quickly. The plagues seem to come quickly – one after another. This period is unimaginable to us. It is filled with horror, and yet, God will protect those who are His. Praise God for His faithfulness to His nature even in the context of the pouring out of His wrath. God doesn’t suspend His love, mercy, and grace, but He demonstrates His just wrath. It is important for us to think about God rightly even as we consider this prophetical section of Scripture. Thank you for listening to Relentless Truth.

Subscribe ▼ Show Notes We look at Revelation 14 and 15 in this episode of Relentless Truth. God’s wrath is poured out on the earth, but those who are in Christ prevail in Him. The Gospel is eternal, and this section makes it clear that it endures forever and is unchanged. The Gospel Endures Forever We sometimes think of the study of eschatology as beyond the Gospel. This passage, and countless others, make clear the fact that the Gospel permeates all of time and all of Scripture. If you have heard the term “the Gospel” and don’t know what this references, please listen to this episode. I explain the Gospel clearly near the end of this episode. The Immensity of God’s Wrath Revelation 14 mentions blood flowing from the winepress as high as a horse’s bridle for 1600 stadia. I said early in the episode that I would explain this but failed to circle back to it. This appears to be a metaphorical reference to the earth’s bloody judgment. A stadia is about 600 feet. So, this reference is to blood flowing as high as a horse’s bridle for 184 miles. There has been much speculation about this – whether it references a river or boundary or the distance between two prominent points. But our understanding of this is limited. I believe this reference is designed to communicate the immensity of God’s wrath poured out on the earth. I don’t believe it provides enough detail to fully unpack. The Gospel of Jesus Christ and its simplicity are addressed clearly in the last few minutes of this episode. Please read Paul’s letter to the Romans and John’s Gospel for the biblical basis for my explanation of the Gospel. Thank you for listening to Relentless Truth.
