Heaven-centric

Revelation 18:1 KJV

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

While the action of The Revelation appears to be on earth, the focus is in heaven.

• The angels
• The vials
• The judgments
• The thunder and lightening

all if these proceed from heaven. This is a book about heaven and not the earth. It is heaven-centric, not earth-centric. 

And so we should think of it today. The action visible to our eyes is happening here. We are concerned about it because it seems to concern us. But these things are not the source and the aim of our focus should not be upon them but upon those things which come from above. These things are symptoms. They are the outward signs of things much deeper. 

Look past the visible to discover the hidden, deeper, spiritual.
