1 AFTER THIS I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven! And the first voice which I had heard addressing me like [the calling of] a war trumpet said, Come up here, and I will show you what must take place in the future.
Our peace and joy is that our Lord and Savior, Who is Jesus, always wants us to know what is going on. He does this because we are His body and as He told us, we aren’t just His servants, we are His friends, John 15:15. Jesus even began the Book of Revelation by telling John that He was about to show him all of the things that were to come in their entirety. Jesus wants us to know our Father completely. He always wants us to know the complete Truth that will set us free, John 17:26. Jesus wants us to know His full will for our lives, John 16:13, and our place in the Kingdom of Heaven. Our Father wants us to know just how dear we are to Him and how that He is unwilling to be without any us.
Jesus absolutely knew what was going on in the Kingdom of Heaven when He was here on the earth as a man and He completely knew our Fathers will for Him. Jesus knew when He was going to die, how He was going to die, and who was going to do it. Jesus knew when Lazarus was going to die and when He was then going to raise him back up. Jesus knew our Father’s will completely and He was empowered with the Holy Spirit to accomplish all that our Father sent Him to do. Jesus knew the Truth that would set us free and He shared it with us.
So if Jesus was allowed to know and was empowered to carry out our Fathers will, why wouldn’t we be allowed to live with the same knowledge and power? We have the same Holy Spirit that Jesus has and we are now member of His body, flesh of His flesh, and bone of His bone, Ephesians 5:30. Through Jesus, our Father showed us plainly how man is supposed to be, fully one with Him and fully empowered by Him, John 17 clearly tells us this Truth. Jesus told us that He came so that we might have life and have it more abundantly, John 10:10. Jesus came so that we might have a life as He has life and to know the Truth as He knows the Truth. We have become one with our Lord and Saviors mind, His Spirit, and His Body. As Jesus is, so are we in this world, 1 John 4:17.
But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you. John 14:26
But you have been anointed by [you hold a sacred appointment from, you have been given an unction from] the Holy One, and you all know [the Truth] or you know all things. 1 John 2:20
The end times are not mysterious and to be unknown. Our Father wants us to clearly know all things that are coming. He wants us to know them in their entirety, Revelation 1:1.
