As we arrive in the final month of Summer and close out this short series on Revelation, it seems like the most appropriate place to end would be… well, the ending. As we do, its important to remember that the fate of creation and humanity in a Biblical worldview is not a destruction of matter and evacuation to Heaven, but rather a restoration of all things that ushers in a new age of life and glo...  Read More

Now that we have an idea of Revelation’s purpose in mind, we can...  Read More
