Very few mortals have been permitted to see into the Throne Room of Almighty God. Fewer still — perhaps only John — have been permitted to linger there and write what he saw. John sees a door open in heaven, and like a portal into the eternities, John enters. This is what he sees...

The Book of Revelation opens with a letter addressed to 7 specific churches in Asia which were under the direct responsibility of John. These function very much like our modern patriarchal blessings do in modern times. Still, as lovers of history, and the word of God, wherever we find it, let's see what we can gain from these amazing letters.

John the Revelator was granted power over death by the Lord at the end of the Lord's mortal ministry here. He told John that he would live to minister and help prepare the day of the Lord's return by prophesying before many peoples in many nations. In this episode we explore the fulfillment of this in the Americas among our own kindred and how this adds to the promise that the Lord intended His altar to be build anew in a "New Jerusalem." A special thank you to Andrew Koyama and Robert Martin fo...

Season 6 of the Gospel Feast Podcast explores the fabulous final book in the Christian Bible, John the Apostle's Book of Revelation. It is one of the few sacred books which specifically guarantees a blessing upon those who read it.

The vision of Ezekiel in chapter 1 of his writings has been heavily debated by scholars and fools. Many illustrators throughout the millennia have attempted to depict his vision with little to no real success. What Ezekiel actually saw was the War Chariot of the Lord. Ezekiel’s description of it is grand and nearly incomprehensible. This is because it is meant to be felt in Eastern terms, not understood in a Western way. One must use Eastern Thinking to understand it; however, in western terms, ...

This is part 1 of 2. It has been heavily debated by scholars and fools as to the meaning of the chariot of the Lord that Ezekiel saw. Many illustrators throughout the millennia have attempted to depict his vision with little to no real success. Ezekiel chapter 1 is carefully laid out in the form of a quiz in episode 71 of this season, but in short what Ezekiel actually saw was the War Chariot of the Lord. Ezekiel’s description of it is grand and nearly incomprehensible. This is because it is mea...

The 7th thousand year period is called “The Millennium.” It is the 1,000 years of all the 1,000 years! It is the time hoped and prayed for by every prophet and saint from the days of Adam. It will be a time of great joy, when radical changes will take place on the Earth, in nature, and in mankind. God will renew the Earth and give it back its paradisiacal glory which will at first be a Terrestrial Glory. The Lord will usher in a new order for the planet. Perhaps the most exciting part of living ...

Jerusalem will know at least three Temples. The first was built by King Solomon with the help of King Hiram of Tyre. It was paid for in advance by King David but the actual construction fell upon Solomon. It was destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar during Ezekiel's lifetime. The Second Temple we call Zerubbabel’s Temple. It was built 70 years later when the Jews were allowed to return to Jerusalem under foreign control. It was smaller than Solomon’s and less grand. It would stand through the next 500 yea...

We know that in coming days there will be terrible wars, great wickedness, carnality, corruption, and abomination such as the world has never before seen. The cup of man’s iniquity will be full, and the fury and scourge of the Lord will be poured without measure upon all nations. The Battle of Armageddon is one of those events that will absolutely happen. Where we are uncertain about particulars, it may be that these are the moments that mankind might yet mitigate some of the destruction or wher...

Christianity has no issue with the concept of resurrection. It is the fundamental tenant of our common faith that all men will be raised from the dead as the free gift of Jesus Christ. What is stranger is that Judaism has no concept of the resurrection today. Because of scriptures like Ezekiel 37 , in Jesus’s Day, Jewry was spilt into two camps on this issue. The Pharisees believed in a coming resurrection while the Sadducees did not. You can remember this with the corny saying, “The Sadducees d...

The Lord is no respecter of persons. He will accept any who will come to Him and learn His ways. The Lord is also a righteous judge and is stuck with the burden of dealing with those who repeatedly will not listen. Israel has had many outrageous enemies. It is illuminating to note that the Lord is most annoyed with the children of men when they kick a brother who is down. The Lord believes in callings and family and it enrages Him when families do not support each other in their callings given f...

Over the course of mankind’s history, the Lord has used numerous symbols and models to try and explain the Plan of Salvation to all in eastern terms. His chosen exemplars, the Children of Israel, were such a rebellious house that the Lord had been forced to stoop to role-plays, children’s games and riddles to try and get their attention. Ezekiel 15-17 are riddles that the Lord is posing to Israel to try and get them to think. It is similar to the Lord using parables during His ministry. We are h...

The glory of the Lord is called the Shekinah in Hebrew. This is a curious word. It means God’s dwelling as in His resting. True to our eastern studies, it is a feminine word. One of the saddest days in Israel was the day that the Shekinah left Solomon’s Temple. It had come and rested upon the Holy House once it was dedicated by Solomon. Witnesses who saw it, while it was there, say that it caused the Temple to literally glow both day and night. In modern temples of the Restoration, we light up t...

We studied together in the Book of Zechariah , how foreknowledge can be a burden. So much of the weeping of Jeremiah was over the fact that he was forced to prophecy events that would come to pass because the people would not repent. The Lord required him to try anyway. It was a hopeless task. Ezekiel saw the same burden. No prophet but Isaiah is more poetic than Ezekiel. His writings are filled with chiasmus, considered the highest form of Hebraic poetry. It is exciting to contrast these with t...

The Lord tells Ezekiel that He is going to attempt to reach the people through a series of Role Plays that function like visual parables. He also decrees the length of the punishment that will be upon the people, including the little known clause given through the administration of Moses.

Ezekiel has been ushered up to the foot of the war chariot of the Living God. It is a unique vehicle more in the form of a palanquin or escorted litter, than a chariot. Whether Ezekiel was taken to God, or God had come to him, the effect was the same. Ezra said it best, “Who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner’s fire.”35 Ezekiel found himself face down on the ground before the royal presence. The kindness of our God is also here manifested. Gratitude for the incomparable tale...

Ezekiel is the perfect book for us to flap our eastern wings because it contains imagery and teachings that are not accessible to a western mind. If you doubt me (and why would you?) do a search for yourself. You will find that there are acres of writings by some very smart people all trying to make sense of Ezekiel . They vary on a scale from deeply mysterious to pure science fiction. Some make very clever arguments such as: Ezekiel was possessed; delusional; high on some strange drug; fighting...

You are about to embark upon a fabulous journey into the Book of Ezekiel . It may be one of the strangest experiences you will ever have with holy scripture. It is a book that you have never really studied before in Sunday School, Institute or Seminary. I think that will be clear soon enough and you can make that final judgement for yourself as to why. There are parts of Ezekiel which are forbidden to discuss in synagogues or publicly by Jews; which begs the question. Why? Why would God say thin...

The history of Israel knows at least 31 Zechariahs. We know the last of these by the Greek version of his name Zacharias, the Father of John the Baptist, whom the Lord Jesus Christ called "the greatest prophet born of woman." What? How can this be? We can’t spend a season on the Book of Zechariah the Levite priest and prophet and not conclude it with the last of his name, Zecharias of the New Testament and the greatest prophet born from woman, his son John the Baptist. This episode will answer m...

The Book of Malachi was written by the Prophet Ezra as the closing chapter to the compilation that he was commanded to compile for the return of the Jews and Levites (with some Benjamites) to the Holy Land. It was to be the Lord's final words until He sent His messenger, John the Baptist, to announce the coming of the Messiah, our Lord Jesus Christ. This episode also explores the curse mentioned by God upon the priests leading up to the return of Elijah in the Latter-days. Those wishing more on ...
