On this day the Lord has made . . .

As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.

So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

Revelation 12 - Study with Dr. J. Vernon McGee ttb.org on February 2021

 

I learned quite a bit about Revelation 12 because of Dr. McGee's study. For instance I always wondered who the woman and the child were. Dr. McGee said that the woman is Israel and the child is Jesus. The great red dragon is Satan.

 Dr. McGee stresses that we can easily interpret Revelation by using the rest of the Bible. He said that Revelation is very well organized. Revelation is Jesus, high and lifted up. 

Revelation 12:10-17 

Rev 12:10 speaks of Salvation, Strength, Kingdom, and Power.  And how Satan was cast down to the earth out of heaven. He accused God's people over and over and over again. 

 Revelation 12:11 - They overcame Satan by 3 things: Blood of the Lamb, by the word of their testimony (their witness, they could not deny Christ), and they loved not their life even unto death.
