Judgment from the places of Darkness

Jesus Christ defeated the accuser of the world in a most unexpected way. The Lord died sinless on a Cross, descended into Hell, then rose again to the throne of Heaven to judge the living and the dead.

God had banished an angel from heaven just as the Lord had sent man from Eden. The place of Light now separated from darkness, as it was in the beginning.

Apostles (all beloved brothers of John) suffer cruel deaths. First century saints suffered cruel deaths as Christians for following The Way of the Messiah Jesus. Christ reveals the mysteries of heaven to John. Judgment is yet to come for those who oppose the Lord God! Satan and death are defeated and Christ will reign once more.

The Apocalypse of John

ἀποκάλυψις – apokalypsis

Literally, the unveiling.

But most believers prefer the comfort of John’s Gospel or assurance to the saints in his three letters.

Are Christians also scared of the dark?

Or is it that we just can’t bear to consider the wrath of God’s judgment and punishment of sin?
