ATSS: Jon Paulien, “Jesus According to Revelation”
23 February 2023 |
The big challenge with studying Jesus in Revelation is this: how do you reconcile “the revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev 1:1) with narrative horrors like the fifth trumpet (Rev 9:1-11)? What do events like the fifth trumpet have to do with Jesus?
In this class we will dig below the surface of a few references to Jesus in the book of Revelation and ask whether anything in the book might be particularly worth studying today.

About our class:
- The AT Sabbath Seminar is intended to be a courteous forum. We discuss and ask questions politely. We don’t accuse, get angry, put people down, or judge the state of their salvation.
- Stick to the topic in both comments and chat discussion.
- Make your comments and questions short—don’t dominate.
- Keep your microphones muted unless you are called upon to make your comment or ask your question.
- Indicate your interest in speaking by raising your electronic hand—under the “reactions” button.
