Fear Not! Your King Is Coming
Dick Onarecker
Revelation 1:7-20
The angels who surround the throne of God must have waited breathlessly. It was as though an intermission had begun, while history rolled on; speaking of a period of time elapsed between the closing and the opening of the Book. Now the intermission was over, and the angels heard the dramatic conclusion, as the King on the throne revealed the answer.

Then, after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and ...
