Thanksgiving Break

November 23, 2008 by Boyd

We will not have the Revelation Bible study on November 30th as we break for Thanksgiving. We plan on returning on December 7th with a study of chapter 7.

A Good Time To Jump In

November 14, 2008 by Boyd

If you’ve been thinking about coming to SixSixteen’s Sunday morning Bible study on Revelation, this would be a good week. We’ll be starting chapter 5. This chapter (along with chapter 4) begin a new section of the book and launch us off into the main section of Revelation– chapters 6-19.

There is no commitment required– come whenever it fits your schedule. So really any week is a good week to jump in, but this week is extra good because it is the beginning of a new section.

Room Change, But Still Downtown

November 13, 2008 by Boyd

We are anticipating are larger group that we had previously planned for Friday night at the Q&A session, so we have moved the gathering upstairs to the main hall at the downtown campus. You will be able to easily find it if you are unfamiliar with the downtown campus.

The start time remains 7:00 p.m. You’ll probably want to get there early.

Reminder: Q&A with Piper on Friday

November 11, 2008 by Boyd

As a reminder, the question and answer session for singles with Pastor John is this Friday at 7pm at the downtown campus.  We are currently scheduled to be in Room 52– the youth basement area.  We will have signs directing you if you don’t know where that is.

Update: we are now scheduled to be in the main hall of the downtown campus.

The Throne

November 8, 2008 by Boyd

Tomorrow (11/9), we get a picture of what heaven is like as we study Revelation 4. Thirteen times the word “throne” is mentioned. That is enough to make it a theme.

But what’s the purpose of this chapter? It feels abrupt coming off the end of two chapters worth of Jesus’ messages to churches. Chapter 6 begins the events of the Tribulation. In between you have chapters 4 and 5– events located in heaven.  What is going on with this?  How are these chapters related?  What’s the flow?

We’ll try to begin unraveling that tomorrow morning and next week as we study those chapters.

The Wow is Now Here

This is mind-boggling to me– every MacArthur sermon available for free.  That is nearly a sermon on every verse of the New Testament plus a lot of the Old and other types of messages.

Revelation Wordles

Here are the wordles that I showed during our study on November 2nd.  They are graphical representations of the most frequently repeated words.  They are useful for spotting trends and themes.
