The Final Revelation of Jesus Christ - Session 5

This is the fifth of eight messages Doug gave in his interviews with GeorgeAnn Hughes in her podcast, The ByteShow. Doug recaps previous messages while reminding us of very important things we need to remember, especially as the days get darker, and the day of visitation is here.
Here are my notes:
o “There are prophecies embedded (in Revelation 2 and 3) that will not be fulfilled until the day of visitation.” How many Bible teachers and prophecy teachers proclaim this?
o “A morning star company at the end of the age, that will overwhelm the powers of darkness; Satan will be overwhelmed! He will be terrorized! His instruments will shrink back in shame.”
o The church is where people come to see Jesus. “If the local church is anything other than the revelation of Jesus Christ, it becomes something of (fallen) man. The local church is the representation of the universal corporate body of Christ.”
o Doug gives a good synopsis on the vision of the chariot of God in Ezekiel – no, it wasn’t a UFO.
o Old Testament “prophets were raised up because the priests failed to communicate the word of God.”
o The messengers (pastors) of the local church: “He’s not to be the messenger of his agenda; he’s not to be the messenger of some denominational head; he’s not to be the messenger of the pope!... He’s to be the messenger of the Lord. And what characterizes him? … to teach the word of God; to be true to the word of God; to present the word of God to the people.”
o Revelation 1 – “This is the concluding revelation that will bring the church age to completion; this is the revelation of Jesus Christ as the bright morning star… Have we seen Him? Is we have seen Him, we will fall; and it’s when we fall, then and only then can He raise us up to be what we need to be in this final closing hour of the church age.”
o In all the years I’ve been editing and producing Doug’s messages, there has never been a time of such resistance and physical challenges that have seemed to fight every inch of accomplishing each installment. I stand into all prayer covering and support as I choose to continue fully assured the He who began a good work in me will bring it to completion.
