Who’s the Child in Revelation 12? Pt 1

Speaker: Eric Douma Series: Eschatology Scripture: Revelation 12

In this message, taken from Revelation 12:1-9, we examine who the child is that is caught up to the throne of God. We learn that it is likely that this child refers to both the Messiah and His people, and that this act of being “caught up” to the throne is a reference to the rapture of the church. The traditional interpretation states this reference to the child being caught up to God’s throne (Rev. 12:5) is a reference to Christ’s ascension. We explore how this traditional understanding fails to explain how Christ’s ascension can, in any way, be depicted as a rescue from Satan. Come and hear for yourself why the corporate reading of the “child” in Revelation 12 makes far greater sense than the traditional interpretation.
