The Promises to David
Sometime around the 9th century BC, King David ruled over the nation of Israel. Despite the infamous incident with Bathsheba, he was a good king who served God with his whole heart.
David was so devoted to God that he felt guilty for living in a royal palace while the religious services were carried out in a tent. He wanted to build a magnificent temple for God instead.
God does not live in a temple, he has no need of a house to live in like humans do - but he was impressed by David’s devotion and attitude, and gave him a blessing.
This blessing was made up of some special promises about David’s kingdom and about his descendants. These promises reached across space and time, and are still relevant to us today.

Curious about the book of Revelation?
Has the book of Revelation always been a mystery to you?
We have given two seminars where we explore the structure and symbols of the Book of Revelation, so that you can better understand as you read.
In the first seminar we look at the structure of the book, and in the second we explore the symbols contained within it.
Seminar 1 - The Structure of Revelation
Seminar 2 - The Symbols Explained
