• Note:
• Jesus told them what all the Bible writers had
prophesied about His life. Then they knew that
He was the true Messiah. Likewise we should
let the Bible explain its prophecies. As we study
Revelation in light of what other Bible writers
say on the same subject, the other texts become
“Golden Keys” that unlock Revelation’s
“mysteries”. Remember, our personal opinions
about Bible prophecy do not count. In fact we
are warned not to teach them.

1 Cor. 2:14 I must have spiritual
discernment.

2 Tim. 2:15 I must study the
scriptures.
Acts 17:11 I must test all beliefs.
Rev. 1:3 I must keep things
written.
John 7:17 I must do His will.

• To clearly understand I must have
spiritual insight which is given to those
who love and serve God. Also, I must be
willing to do God’s will as it becomes
clear to me. To disobey God’s truth after
it is revealed is dangerous.
