OVER THE WALL OF OPPRESSION
PART II, THE BOOK OF REVELATION
By Dr. Leland Jensen
INTRODUCTION
Introduction
The book of Revelation is the greatest book in the entire Bible, but it is also the book that is most misunderstood. Nobody knows the meaning of this book, as it is written in symbols, allegories, and in a style or fashion that makes it almost impossible to decipher its purpose and its significance. That is why preachers neglect it almost completely. This was the intent of God. That is, He kept it a mystery so that only the return of Christ, Baha'u'llah, and the return of Jesus the Lamb, Leland, would be able to unravel the mysteries that are enshrined therein. This was intended to provide proof that these two are the ones sent by God, so that all mankind could turn to them and benefit by Baha'u'llah’s Revelation of the Kingdom, and by Jesus’ explanations and commentaries to establish that Kingdom in the world. This is so all of mankind in this world would know the meaning of the book of Revelation. To all of the rest of the world it remains a complete mystery, except to those who have been taught the meanings by Jesus (Leland).
In approximately 96 AD John, the youngest of the twelve apostles of Christ, was in the area of Asia Minor preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ. He was taken prisoner and exiled by the Roman Government to Patmos, a penal colony. While imprisoned there, John received the Revelation of Jesus Christ on His first coming, in the form of visions revealed to him by an angel sent by Jesus. John immediately addressed the seven churches that existed in Asia Minor at that time, revealing to them the visions he had received.
Symbolically, these seven churches represent the seven conditions of Christianity, both good and bad. These conditions either inflict or benefit the believers in Christianity. This message from Jesus was sent by the angel of Jesus to these seven churches, thus the Revelation of Jesus Christ was recorded and preserved until this very day.
Jesus was a Universal Manifestation, as were the prophets Adam and Baha'u'llah. The rest of the Manifestations, Moses, Krishna, Zoroaster, Buddha, and Muhammad, had Revelations that were for certain peoples, for the purpose of building them into very great civilizations. Jesus told His apostles and disciples to go out and teach the nations so when Baha'u'llah came there would be Christians living in all nations. When these Christians are converted to the Baha'i faith by the return of Jesus the Lamb, they will be able to persuade these specific civilizations to become Baha'i. The reason why Jesus gave this book of Revelation is so that after “the close of the age” in 2000 AD (Matthew 24:3), the whole world would become Baha'i. This “close of the age” refers to the close of the Age of Prophecy, and the beginning of the Age of Fulfillment.
The Revelation of Jesus Christ reveals to all of mankind that which will come to pass after the time when John received Jesus’ Revelation, up until the time when God’s Kingdom is established on earth as it is in heaven. This Revelation, however, was not to be understood or correctly interpreted until a specific preordained time when Jesus would return and give its true explanation. Therefore, the meanings of the visions that John received and recorded in the book of Revelation are hidden in symbolism and parallelism.
This is the time when the mystery of those verses is to be understood. The one whom God has ordained to reveal the true meaning of His Word was sent in this present-day to do the work of God. He is prophesied throughout the Holy Scriptures by various titles. He is the return of Jesus, Joshua the High Priest, the seventh angel, and the Lamb, to list but a few. This Promised One who fulfills the prophecies for the return of Jesus the Lamb is Dr. Leland Jensen.
Now is the Day of Judgment, which precedes the establishment of God’s Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. All of mankind will hear the Lamb’s explanations and commentaries. The Revelation of God that began with Adam approximately 6000 years ago, and ends during this cycle of man’s existence with the Revelation of Baha'u'llah, will now be established. The diverse religions that man has invented and holds fast to, will be destroyed. Those who cling to these false religions and/or their own theologies will also perish. These are the things that are revealed by the angel of Jesus to John, His disciple.
The explanations I have given here are an attempt to put together, verse by verse, this great message so mankind may receive the blessing of the knowledge of God’s plan for mankind in these last days. This is for your salvation and security during the oncoming catastrophes.
Preachers neglect the book of Revelation almost completely because its symbols, allegories, and style or fashion make its purpose and significance almost impossible to decipher. This was the intent of God. That is, He kept it a mystery so only the return of Christ, Baha'u'llah, and the return of Jesus the Lamb, Leland, would be able to unravel the mysteries that are enshrined therein. This was to give proof that these two are the ones sent by God so all mankind could turn to them and benefit by Baha'u'llah’s Revelation of the Kingdom, and by Jesus’ explanations and commentaries to establish that Kingdom in the world. 'Abdu'l-Baha, the delineator of Baha'u'llah’s Revelation, revealed the meaning of the 11th chapter of the book of Revelation, as well as the first six verses of the 12th chapter, and a few verses of the 21st chapter. This is all the Covenant-breaking Baha'is know of the meaning of the book of Revelation. To the rest of the world it remains a complete mystery, except to those who were taught the meanings by the return of Jesus.
The Adamic cycle began 6000 years ago in 4000 BC, and will end when the Revelation of Baha'u'llah is established at the end of this cycle of man’s existence. The diverse religions which man has invented and holds fast to, will be destroyed. Those who cling to these false religions and/or their own theologies will also perish. These are the things that are revealed by the angel of Jesus to John, His disciple.
Through the Grace and Divine Blessings of God, I have been brought into the presence of His Promised One and have received the explanations he gives for this Revelation of Jesus. The explanations I have given here are an attempt to put together, verse by verse, this great message so that all mankind may receive the blessing of the knowledge of God’s Plan.
The following interpretations of the Revelation of Jesus are the only true interpretations as they are the interpretations of Jesus, not the Christ, but Jesus the High Priest after the order of Melchizedek:
“We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner shrine behind the curtain (veil), where Jesus has gone as forerunner on our behalf, having become a High Priest after the order of Melchizedek” (Hebrews 6:19-20).
