This week on From the Cutting Room Floor, Pastor Brian tackles your questions from Sunday’s message on Revelation 1:5b–6: The Apocalypse—How You See Yourself Shapes Your Life.

• The priestly work of Christians includes manifesting the presence of God in biblically prescribed ways. How is that different from God's attribute of omnipresence?
• How can Christians objectively assess the Christian faith when one's faith is such a subjectively experienced part of their identity?

Hear Pastor Brian unpack these challenging questions and guide us with biblical truth.

This week on From the Cutting Room Floor, Pastor Brian dives into thought-provoking questions from Sunday’s message on Revelation 1:4–5b — The Apocalypse: How You See God Shapes Your Life.

• Do the "seven spirits" in Revelation represent the Holy Spirit or the seven archangels before God's throne?
• Why does God allow many to remain distant from him if he desires all to know him?
• How do we understand divine hiddenness—shouldn't a loving God reveal himself more clearly?
• How can we distinguish symbolic numbers from literal ones in Scripture?

Join Pastor Brian as he unpacks these challenging questions and provides biblical insights.

What does the Bible mean when it says “the time is near”—even though it’s been 2,000 years? And if Revelation’s prophecies can happen in different ways throughout history, how do we know what’s a real fulfillment and what’s just coincidence? Pastor Brian will be addressing both of these questions in this week’s Q&A episode—digging into God’s timing, prophecy, and how to hold on to hope when waiting feels long.
