In Revelation chapters 4 & 5, I believe we see a further unveiling of Jesus, by God the Father. Jesus` throne is set up, & then as Heir of all things, He is proclaimed worthy to receive the title deeds of the world, with the judgments written there on. What do you see in the vision of the Heir, who is worthy to receive the 7 sealed scroll? Marilyn. Now my references, the teachers that I learn from – Dr. Charles J. Rolls. (from the back of his books) He is renowned on several continents for his encyclopedic knowledge of Scripture & his radiant devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ. Educated at the university of Cambridge, Dr. Rolls has been a missionary in India, & home director for the Sudan Interior Mission for New Zealand & Australia. He was founder or dean of Bible schools in New Zealand, Australia & the United States. Later relinquishing this ministry to concentrate on writing & preaching, largely in the United States & Canada. Where he now (then) makes his home. This photograph (on the back of the book), taken on his 96th birthday, shows Dr. Rolls with the Newberry Bible he has used for more than three-quarters of a century, bulging with hundreds of interleaved pages & notes & outlines in his meticulous engraving-like script. Apostle/pastor Alistair Gardiner. (from the back of his book) His commitment to the message of this book eventuated in a remarkable manner. During his service in World War 2 as a Pilot, he was involved in a mid-air encounter & a consequent horrific plane crash. Blinded, paralyzed & helpless in the wreckage of his cockpit, God challenged him for future service. Subsequently he attended Melbourne University, graduating in Commerce (Economics) & Business Administration, followed by a very successful business career. God`s war-time challenge became reality, & he was invited to minister in practically every denomination in numerous countries around the world. He is currently (1992) the immediate Past President of the Apostolic Church in Australia. (Marilyn.I have been a member of this denomination all my life.)
