Book of Revelation prophesies general resurrection, judgment and a new age
Book Of Revelation And Last Days
"The Book of Revelation has come to be read as prophesying the events
of the end of history. A general resurrection, a general judgment and
a new age." Adela Yarbro Collins, PBS Frontline
"The book of the Revelation opens with the announcement of its
title, and with a benediction on those who give diligent heed to its
solemn prophetic utterances:
Verse 1
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him, to show unto
His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and
signified it by His angel unto His servant John:
2 who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus
Christ, and of all things that he saw.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this
prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the
time is at hand.
The Title.
The translators of the King James Version of the Bible have given
this book the title, "The Revelation of St. John the Divine." In this
they contradict the very first words of the book itself, which
declare it to be "The Revelation of Jesus Christ." Jesus Christ is
the Revelator, not John. John is but the penman employed by Christ to
write out this Revelation for the benefit of His church. John is the
disciple of Jesus who was beloved and highly favored among the
twelve. He was evangelist and apostle, and the writer of the Gospel
and the epistles which bear his name. To his previous titles must now
be added that of prophet; for the Revelation is a prophecy, and John
so denominates it. It is not only the Revelation of Jesus Christ, but
it is the Revelation which God gave unto Him. It comes first from the
great Fountain of all wisdom and truth, God the Father, by Him it was
communicated to Jesus Christ, the Son; and Christ sent and signified
it by His angel to His servant John.
The Character of the Book.
This is expressed in one word, "Revelation." A Revelation is
something revealed or made known, not something hidden and concealed.
Moses tells that "the secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but
those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children
forever." Deuteronomy 29: 29. The very title of the book, then, is a
sufficient refutation of the opinion sometimes expressed that this
book is among the mysteries of God, and cannot be understood. Were
this the case, it should bear some such title as "The Mystery"
or "The Hidden Book," certainly not "The Revelation."
Its Object.
"To show unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass."
His servants--who are they? For whose benefit was the Revelation
given? Was it to be for any specified persons, for any particular
churches, for any special period of time? No, it is for all the
church in all time, as long as any of the events predicted within the
book remain to be accomplished. It is for all those who can claim the
appellation, "His servants," wherever or whenever they may live.
God says that this prophecy was given to reveal coming events to His
servants, yet many of the expositors of His word tell us that no man
can understand it! This is as if God would undertake to make known to
mankind important truths, yet fall into the worse than earthly folly
of clothing them in language or in figures which human minds could
not comprehend! It is as if He would command a person to behold some
distant object, and then erect an impenetrable barrier between him
and the object! Or as if He would give His servants a light to guide
them through the gloom of night, yet throw over that light a pall so
thick and heavy that not a ray of its brightness could penetrate the
obscuring folds! How men dishonor God who thus trifle with His word!
No; the Revelation will accomplish the object for which it was given,
and "His servants" will learn from it the "things which must shortly
come to pass," and which concern their eternal salvation."
Uriah Smith, The Prophecies of Daniel and Revelation,
Review and Herald Publishing Association, pg. 339-40, 1972

Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi proves beyond a shadow of doubt that
these "are the times described in the Holy Bible as the Last Judgment
and in the Koran as Qiyamah, the Resurrection time. Astrologically it
is also called the Age of Aquarius, the time of rebirth and of great
spiritual development on the Earth."
"Today, Sahaja Yoga has reached the state of Mahayoga, which is en-
masse evolution manifested through it. It is this day's Yuga Dharma.
It is the way the Last Judgment is taking place. Announce it to all
the seekers of truth, to all the nations of the world, so that nobody
misses the blessings of the Divine to achieve their meaning, their
absolute, their spirit." (Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi)
"The main thing that one has to understand is that the time has come
for you to get all that is promised in the scriptures, not only in
the Bible but all the scriptures of the world. The time has come
today that you have to become a Christian, a Brahmin, a Pir, through
your Kundalini awakening only. There is no other way. And that your
Last Judgment is also now." (Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi)
Shri Mataji is indeed the incarnation of the Shakti, the promised
Comforter/Moshiach/Mahdi sent by God Almighty to proclaim and explain
His Divine Message to humanity. Due to advanced age and health
problems Shri Mataji, now more than 83-years-old, has withdrawn
completely from public life. It is now left to those outside the
Sahaja Yoga organization to spread His Divine Message of the promised
Last Judgment and Resurrection to all the nations and people. The
only alternative for conscientious SYs to announce the same is to
promote this website, and ensure Shri Mataji's Divine Message reaches
those believers waiting God Almighty's eschatological promise of
bodily resurrection (Kundalini awakening) and spiritual immortality
(moksa). This is the only way to ensure the faithful of all religious
and spiritual traditions are afforded the evidence, opportunity,
knowledge, experience and right to draw their own conclusions if
indeed it is the promised Age of the Last Judgment and Resurrection.
The Book of Revelation prophesies a general resurrection, judgment
and new age, precisely what Shri Mataji has been declaring over the
decades to all the nations and people. The Revelation will accomplish
the object for which it was given, and "His servants" will learn from
it the "things which must shortly come to pass," and which concern
their eternal salvation. Just bear witness and lend your unswerving
support to Her cause. Do not empower the Alan Wherrys and John Noyces
of the WCASY and SY leadership. After witnessing the tragic events
unfolding in America, Russia and Australia there is no question now
that they are possessed by satanic negativity. There is no other
reason for them to be so unwittingly oblivious to the fact that they
are collectively working against the fulfillment of God Almighty's
Plan for humanity through His Shakti, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi.
