"The New Heaven and New Earth" - Revelation 21:1-8 Jun 15, 2026 2555 The Bible begins in a garden. It ends in a city. Between those two settings, the story of humanity unfolds. Sin enters the world, relationships fracture, creation groans, death spreads, and people spend their lives longing for something better. Every single one of us knows instinctively that things aren't the way they're supposed to be. Revelation 21 gives us a glimpse of the day when God will mak
"The Thousand-Year Reign and the Final Judgment" - Revelation 20:1-15 Jun 8, 2026 2530 If you could ask God one question, what would it be? Revelation 20 brings us to one of the most significant prophetic passages in all of Scripture. After Christ's glorious return in Revelation 19, John is shown what follows: Satan's imprisonment, Christ's thousand-year reign on earth, Satan's final rebellion, and the Great White Throne Judgment. These verses answer some of the biggest questions pe

"The Marriage Supper of the Lamb" - Revelation 19:1-10 May 25, 2026 2611 In our culture, we tend to call marriage suppers “wedding receptions.” In recent weeks, I have been to several, and they’ve all been beautiful. The food was great. The music was festive. The conversations were cheerful, but our greatest joy was in who was there.  Just imagine, according to Revelation 19, there is going to be a day when we will experience a festive, joyful me
"The Fall of Babylon and the Victory of Christ" - Revelation 18:1-24 May 18, 2026 2955 Revelation 18 presents one of the most dramatic scenes in all of Scripture. Babylon, the great world system that has exalted itself against God, is suddenly destroyed. Its wealth collapses. Its influence disappears. We’re told that its power evaporates in a single hour. The kings of the earth mourn. The merchants weep. The nations stand shocked at the speed of its downfall. But while the wor
"A Mother's Persistent Faith" - Matthew 15:21-28 May 11, 2026 2672 One of the most touching moments in the earthly ministry of Jesus involves a desperate mother who refused to stop praying for her child. She wasn’t famous, powerful, or even part of the nation of Israel, but she loved her daughter deeply, and she believed Jesus could help. In many ways, this passage reminds us of the kind of strength God has often placed within mothers. Long before others re

"The Seven Bowls of God's Wrath" - Revelation 16:1-21 Apr 27, 2026 2724 Revelation 16 brings us to an unmistakably clear moment in the unfolding of God’s prophetic plan, and it’s certainly interesting to observe the ways people choose to respond. The seven bowls of God’s wrath are poured out on the earth, completing the judgment that began with the seals and intensified with the trumpets. These judgments aren’t symbolic of general hardship. The

"Victory, Worship, and the Coming Judgment" - Revelation 15:1-8 Apr 20, 2026 2405 Revelation 15 is a short chapter, but it carries tremendous weight. It serves as a transition between what's already been revealed and what's about to unfold. The judgments of God are about to reach their final expression in the bowl judgments, and before that happens, there's a noticeable pause in Heaven that points us directly to Jesus. .

“The Victory of the Lamb and the Coming Harvest” - Revelation 14:1-20 Apr 13, 2026 2782 Revelation 14 feels like a breath of fresh air after the intensity of chapter 13. In that chapter, the beast rises, deception spreads, and the pressure to compromise grows heavy. Then suddenly, the scene shifts. John looks again, and what he sees is a picture of clarity, victory, and Jesus reigning. . Please visit https://www.biblestudyheadquarters.com/ for more tools and resources to help yo
