  1. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST REVELATION CHAPTER 12 Chapter One – Introduction to the “Revelator” – Jesus. Chapters Two and Three – the 7 letters to the 7 churches. Chapters Four and Five - the Throne Room of God and the Scroll. Chapters Six and Seven – the 7 Seals are opened on the Scroll. Chapters Eight and Nine – 6 of the 7 Trumpets of “warning” are blown. Chapter 10 – The Mighty Angel and the Little Scroll – “The Gospel must be preached to the world…especially in the “trumpet days”. Chapter 11 – in the Trumpet days – the TWO WITNESSES – Israel and the Church…will eventually be persecuted by the anti-Christ. But…the Church, the TRUE Israel, those bought by the blood of Jesus…will be raptured…at the Seventh Trumpet! There is rejoicing in Heaven…God is now ready to pour out His wrath and judge the lost world.

  2. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST CHAPTER 12 “a great and wondrous sign" - of what? 1. Of the Spiritual Nature of Satan's hatred for Israel and the Church – (THE TWO WITNESSES!) 2. Of the general "history" of Satan and his use of the "world system" to "pursue" the people of God 3. Of how and WHY - the antichrist will eventually come to power - culminating in a "man with the Spirit of Satan himself" (THE ANTICHRIST) - The opposite of Jesus - (Jesus was A man - yet who was also God himself) - The antichrist will be Satan's "Jesus" Chapter 12 serves to "set up" CHAPTER 13 - the Introduction of the anti-Christ. READ CHAPTER 12

  3. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST The 7 major elements of the “Great and Wondrous Sign” The woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet. A crown of 12 stars on her head. She gives "birth" to a male child who will rule the world with an iron scepter - (Psalm 2:7-9) The woman can only be ISRAEL! The 12 stars = the 12 tribes and the 12 disciples (Israel and the Church - the 24 elders - the Two Witnesses)

  4. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST The WOMAN’S identity is clearly revealed in scripture. Gen 37:9-11: Then he [Joseph] dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, "Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me." So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, "What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?" And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the matter in mind. When we consider that this woman, who represents spiritual Israel, is pictured as a mother, we find another portion of scripture which further identifies her. Gal. 4:22-29: 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the free woman. 23 His son by the slave woman was born in the ordinary way; but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a promise.… 26 But the Jerusalem that is above is free, and she is our mother.

  5. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST 2. An enormous Red Dragon - swept 1/3 of the "stars" of heaven down to the earth with him. (See verses 7-9) This is Satan and his demonic host that were expelled from heaven in his rebellion against the LORD. (REVELATION Chapter 13:1-4 identifies the Dragon as Satan) The dragon tried to devour or kill the child of the woman - even beginning at birth! (King Herod, The Jewish religious system all of His ministry - and finally the Cross – ) (Satan thought it was his victory!)

  6. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST 3. After the resurrection - and ever since - The Dragon has "pursued" the "woman" and "her offspring" Which are…ISRAEL (Spiritual and National) and the CHURCH (the two witnesses!)

  7. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST 4. The Dragon even launched an all out attack against the Jews(like a river spewing out of his mouth) in the holocaust through his “mini- antichrist” – HITLER. Over 6 million Jews were slaughtered in the Nazi camps and ovens. Satan tried to "sweep the Jews away in the torrent!" The Muslim and Arab world has since, particularly through the PLO and Yassar Arafat, tried to continue to "sweep them away in a torrent". In 1948, one day after Israel claimed its independence, she was attacked by 6 Arab nations who were determined to "push her into the sea." Within months, Israel had defeated all her attackers!

  8. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST 5. But the EARTH (WWII - {Trumpets one and two!}) Most of the nations of the EARTH were involved to one degree or another in WWII… the final outcome was that it … "helped the woman"

  9. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST 6. AND...the woman was given the "two wings of A GREAT EAGLE" - so that she might be carried away and protected for a time set by GOD. Listen to this “symbolic” – apocalyptic language… The symbol of it might be a woman with two wings - flying… or Perhaps the woman was “GIVEN” the “two wings of a GREAT EAGLE” as the “gift of protection” to her so that the Eagle could carry her into a safe place until God was ready to bring her back to the land and re-establish her as a nation… If that is the case … then consider the Great Eagle with TWO WINGS…

  10. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST “THE GREAT SEAL OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” THE Two wings of a Great Eagle The seal is called the GREAT seal of the United States. It has been so since its inception. Note in its right talon the eagle is holding an Olive Branch - the universal symbol for peace and the Universal Biblical symbol for ISRAEL! Note that the Eagle is facing the Olive Branch. Seal-1782 Israel -1948 Note 13 arrows in its left talon Note 13 stars in the crest (Crown) above its head - ISRAEL - the WOMAN had a crown with 12 stars! E Pluribus Unum means "out of many, one".

  11. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST The U.S. CONNECTION WITH ISRAEL *The ONLY two nations in the world who's legal systems, history and heritages are founded completely and solidly on Biblical principles and laws, especially the 10 Commandments. * Israel = Jacob plus his 12 sons (tribes). (13) * The 12 tribes were spiritually led by one other "tribe" THE LEVITES (the Priests!) (13) * Jesus = picked 12 disciples to be under His Authority (13) * The United States of America = 13 original colonies * The first U.S. Flag - 13 stars, 13 stripes * The U.S. - (With Great Britain - from whom we came ) has been the sole "protector" of Israel in the World. * The U.S. - Is the ONLY thing standing between Israel and WORLD WAR III and a NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST in the Middle East. * The U.S. and our protection of ISRAEL is the NUMBER ONE reason why the Muslim World, especially the terrorists HATE us! * The U.S. trained, supplied and equipped and still equips the Israeli military with the most modern of military weapons - Thus, Israel is the 3rd largest SUPER POWER IN THE WORLD. (Behind the U.S. and Great Britain.) * Out of Israel came the Church and Christianity. Out of the U.S. has come the greatest Christian missionary movement the world has ever seen. We publish and distribute more Bibles and Christian literature than anyone. * The U.S. literally saved the world in WWII - thus "saving" Israel and delivering her from the Nazi ovens. The U.S. protected Israel by "swallowing" up a vast majority of the world's population of Jews in the safety of U.S. citizenship. There are more Jews living in the U.S.A. than the entirety of the Jewish population of Israel. * Even Israel will tell you that the U.S. has been and still is the greatest friend in the world system of governments that ISRAEL has EVER HAD!

  12. THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST ELEMENT NUMBER SEVEN of CHAPTER 12 7. And ever since... the Dragon (SATAN) has been "making war" with the rest of her (Israel's) "offspring" - "Those who hold to the testimony of JESUS!" - Christians and THE CHURCH! US! 1. DO YOU SEE THE SPIRITUAL NATURE of what we consider daily “news events”?! 2. REMEMBER…This was written 2000 years ago! The United States of America 1776 WWII and Hitler – 1945 Muslim and Arab persecution of Israel – 1948 – the PRESENT!
