The Key to Bible ProphecySample

Many Christians consider biblical prophecy to be puzzling, complicated, mysterious, and hard to understand. But there is a master key that you are going to need if you want to unlock the door of God’s prophetic program. Are you ready for the one thing that is necessary to make it all more clear? Here it is:

Jesus.

As we learn from Revelation 19:10, “the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Only Jesus can unlock the doors of prophetic understanding that will make everything clearer. You can, for example, have all the other needed elements for a football game—a playing field, uniforms, protective gear, etc. But you can’t play if you don’t have the football itself. It is the centerpiece of the whole game. And similarly, Jesus is the centerpiece of prophecy.

If you want to talk about prophecy, you have to talk about Jesus. All history—past, present, and future—revolves around Him. If you get lost in all the other details and charts and theories but don’t take Him into account, you’ll never really understand what the future is all about. So, keep that in mind as you think about the future because the future is all about what He will bring to pass.

How does it change the way you think about biblical prophecy when you understand that Jesus is the key to understanding it?
