“Why There Must Be a Tribulation”

It’s a question that’s seldom asked: the Tribulation is coming—but why? Why must there be God’s Wrath—when will it hit, and who must suffer through it? The answers are shattering and glorious—and beyond words… (Revelation 6 supplement)

“Postcards from the Throne of God”

The End of the World launches at the Throne of God, and those mysterious twenty-four ‘Elders’ have everything to do with it. Who are they? Why are they there? More than that—what does any of this have to do with the Lord’s Prayer? Much indeed…! (Rev. 4:3-6a)
