I am so honored for the privilege of being on the Mark Howard Show. When I was invited to be a part of this podcast, I was ecstatic. The Mark Howard Show, since 2020, has successfully influenced listeners with educational and positive legacies. Today, I'd like to be a part of this educational and positive legacy.
Hi, I'm Elaine Wagner, and I wrote the book 'The REAL Revelation REVEALED'.
This book, 'The REAL Revelation REVEALED' is indeed educational. It will definitely change your life. This book can help you have the peace and confidence that you need 2 no about life, the future, death, and Heaven. From the very beginning the very end of this book, you will explore many amazing, and exciting facts. Just starting on Page 1, for example, of the book we learn that the Apostle John, who penned down the biblical book, Revelation, preached in the city of Ephesus. We see that his preaching caused such an uproar, that the religious town leaders stoned John. But that did not kill him. So the leaders of Ephesus took a human sized iron pot and filled it with oil. Like cooking oil. They set this up in the center of the town of Ephesus. The leaders put a very hot fire under the pot of oil until it was boiling. Then they took the Apostle John and stuffed him alive into that boiling pot of oil. They really wanted him dead. But this did not kill the Apostle John either. Oh, this made the leaders even more angry. They tried to stone him to death and tried to boil him to death, but they just could not kill John. So they took John and put him on a prison boat and sent him to the Isle of Patmos as a prisoner. Patmos is one of the islands of Greece. Patmos is not a vacation island! It is mainly made of rock with very little vegetation. Nothing would grow there and there was not much to eat for the prisoners. Little food was brought in by the soldiers from time to time by boat. But this lonely place is just where God wanted John because it was here, on the barren isle of Patmos, that God had John pen down the book of Revelation, the last book of the Bible. God will put us where He wants us, even through hardships, to have us do His will.
Through this book, you will learn true events. In chapter 3, you will learn about the Rapture. The Rapture is the event in which Christians will be called by Christ to meet Him in the air. 1 Corinthians 15:51-52. God REVEALS to us what the Rapture is in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17: "Then we which are alive and remain (on the earth) shall be caught up together with them (people who died before) in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we ever be with the Lord." Notice that this verse doesn't say we might be. It says we SHALL be. It is a true event to happen and it is going to happen soon. On page 3 in the book "The REAL Revelation REVEALED is a lists of some of the signs of events that is going to happen just before the Rapture.
How do we know the Rapture is going to happen soon? Because we are in the last church age. You will learn about the seven church ages in Chapters 3 & 4. The last church age is the Laodicea church age. This is our church age. This is the time period we are in now. This is the lukewarm era. The word ICE is in the word Laodicea. Most people today are ice cold for God. I'm talking about churches. People who go to church. They sit in their pews. Half fall asleep. Shake the preachers' hand as they go out the door and that is about the extent of their religion. How many people read their Bibles faithfully every day? How many Christians really care about the souls of others. Did you know that there are verses in Ezekiel 33: 7-9 that tells us that we will be held accountable for not witnessing to others.
After the Rapture takes place, the Tribulation Period starts. The world will be in utter chaos. Then the antichrist will emerge. The first 3 1/2 years of the Tribulation Period will be peaceful as the antichrist gets his ducks all in a row. The second 3 1/2 years will be a literal hell on earth. You will read about the four horsemen in this book and what each colored horse represents. You will learn that during the Tribulation Period how two slices of bread will cost around $20. This book will teach you about the 'giant earthquake' and stars falling from heaven. You'll read about the bottomless pit and the creepy locusts that will ascend out of the bottomless pit. There is a picture of them on page 74. They have hair like women, teeth like a lion and a tail like a scorpion that stings. Pages 72-74 describes their attributes and what they will do.
You will learn about the antichrist and how he will control the One World Order by his 'Beast' of a computer system. You will learn about the 'Mark of the Beast'. You will learn abut the 'Battle of Armageddon' and where it will take place.
Chapter 11 reveals how the Lord is going to send two witnesses from Heaven to give people another chance to be saved. But wait till you read what the people will do to these two witnesses from God.
Another interesting fact that is revealed is the place where Israel will flee to during the Tribulation Period. The place is called Petra. It is indeed a real city built into the mountains centuries ago. It has over 800 steps leading up to it. There is a picture of Petra in our book on Page 94.
Chapter 13, and numbered rightly so, covers Satan, the Beast, Imperialism, the False Prophet, and the Mark of the Beast.
You will study about the 'Millennium Period', which is the 1,000 year reign of Christ. A description of Christ is in Chapter 1. You learn learn what the Millennium is and what takes place during this time period. Our book even reveals that there use to be giants on the earth. That is shown on page 146.
Then comes the Battle of Armageddon. Armies will literally be crossing the Euphrates River. Our book reveals where the Battle of Armageddon will take place, what the outcome will be and who will clean up the mess from this fierce battle.
After the Battle of Armageddon, God judges Satan. The Lord will take Satan, along with the False Prophet and the Beast and throw them into the Lake of Fire. Hell is very real. I don't think there is any of us truly wants to acknowledge that there is a real Hell. But Hell is very real none the less. In fact, Jesus preached more about Hell than He did on Heaven. Why? Because He loves us so much that He died on the cross so we wouldn't have to go down to Hell. The Lord even put verses in the Bible for us so we would know for sure that there is a real, literal Hell. On page 139 of our book lists a few verses on Hell and most of these are the Lord's own words: Revelation 20:15 says there is "A lake of fire"; Jude 13 calls Hell a 'place of blackness & darkness.' In Matthew 8:12, Jesus teaches that it is a place where people weep. In Matthew 13:42, Jesus says it is a place where people will wail - cry. Luke 16:23 the Lord Himself shares with us that it is a place of torments.
Did you know that there will be two thrones in Heaven? One is red and other is white. The red throne is called the Judgment Seat of Christ. We talk about the Judgment Seat of Christ on Page 90. The Judgment Seat of Christ is where Christ will sit. It is red. It typifies the blood He shed for those who have accepted them as their Saviour. 2 Corinthians 5:10 states that all Christians will appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ. This is for the saved. This is the time Christians get judged for their works. For whether or not they served the Lord with a whole heart. At this judgment seat, the Lord Jesus will reward us if we did good and will tell us if we didn't. The Lord will pass out rewards to those who did well. The other Christians will stand there empty handed. But they will still all be in Heaven.
The white throne is totally different. Have you ever noticed the color of a tombstone. Cold, hard, no color. This is like the Great White Throne. This Great White Throne will have God Almighty sitting on it. This is on Page 175 and also in your Bible in Chapter 20, verse 11 of Revelation. The people who will stand in front of God Almighty at the Great White Throne are unsaved people. And the Bible says there will be many (Matthew 7:13-14). Page 176 tells us about the people standing before the Great White Throne. These are people who did not choose to ask Christ to be their Saviour.
Did you know that there are books in Heaven and they will be opened? As part of a history tidbit, on page 45 there is a picture of one of the oldest books known. It is located in the Bulgaria National Museum of History. Scholars estimate this book to be about 2,500 years old but what is really neat about it is that it has six pages of 24 carat gold.
Anyways, God Almighty opens the books in Heaven. One of the books that God opens is the Book of Life. The Book of Life has the names of people in it who have asked Christ to be their Saviour. When these people's names do not appear in the Book of Life, God Almighty says to them the same words Jesus said in Matthew 25:41: 'Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fie, prepared for the devil and his angels". The Lord Jesus gives plenty of warnings. He said in Luke 3:13 "...Except ye repent ye shall likewise perish'. The Lord does not want this to happen to you. Hell was prepared for Satan. But the choice is yours. God did not make you a robot.
When you ask Christ to forgive you of your sins and come into your heart a whole new world open up. You will have the peace and confidence of a home in Heaven. You won't have to worry about Hell. You will be God's child and as God's child, you will be in Heaven with your Heavenly Father and He has some really awesome stuff for you.
You will have a wonderful forever home. This book will help you learn about the New Heaven and the New Earth. You will learn about New Jerusalem and how John measures it on pages 83 and 187. Chapter 21 tells us the exact measurements of the New Jerusalem. It is a perfect square. Did you know that scientists have discovered a cube floating around in space? In 2024, the James Webb Space Telescope observed a large square object about 10 light years away moving toward the earth. Revelation 21:2 says: "And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven" I'd say God has New Jerusalem hanging around up there waiting to sit it down on the New Earth for us. This is on page 187. Then on page 209, there is informative article that was on Newsbreak by Jordan Joseph, posted on May 8, 2025, titled 'Largest structure in the universe' is even bigger than astronomers imagined and still a huge mystery" End quote. This article says that it stretches out like a 'wall'. They call it the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall'. Could not this possibly be the great wall God has surrounding New Jerusalem?
Chapter 4 gives us another glimpse of a heavenly scene. John records that there are 24 elders sitting with crowns of their heads. These 24 elders are two sets of twelve. The first 12 elders are the 12 tribes of Israel.... Reuban, Simeon, Levi, Judah, etc., When we see New Jerusalem, there will be twelve gates with the name of the tribes of Israel inscribed, one name on each gate. This is on Page 186. Then on Page 189 is listed the 12 Apostles. Their names engraved on a precious stone adorning the wall around New Jerusalem. Chapter 21 is my most favorite Chapter. It associates a special stone with each apostle. Let me give you an example... On Page 189, Peter is listed as the first stone. The first stone is a red Jasper. Jasper is a stone that burns with fiery embers of passion. Of all the apostles, Jesus told Peter "Feed my sheep". The Lord knew the love and zeal Peter had for Him. Peter had a fiery passion to tell others about Christ. '
Another precious stone, one of the 12, that is on the wall of New Jerusalem, is is a chrysolite. This is the seventh stone. Chrysolyte is a very pretty yellowish-gold color. It reminds us about New Jerusalem and the street of gold. Remember the apostle Thomas. He is most remembered for being doubting Thomas. Thomas wanted proof. The Lord gave Thomas proof. Thomas' faith was restored. Thomas became a shining gold colored gem for the Lord. It was Thomas alone who wanted to follow Christ to the cross on the day of crispification. After Thomas touched Jesus' hands, Thomas traveled outside of the Roman Empire and preached Christ. Thomas traveled to places in Syria, Iraq, Iran, Turkey and India. Thomas was killed on the mission field. When Jesus was on the cross, one of the soldiers thrust a spear into Jesus' side. That's recorded in John 19:34. Thomas was speared to death just like Jesus had a spear thrust into His side. Thomas reflected His Saviour just like a gold colored gem.
In the Bible, in the book of Revelation, Heaven is described so beautifully and in many details.
You will learn about the Sea of Glass and what people get to stand on the Sea of Glass on Page 41. The answer is on Page 120 of the book "The REAL Revelation REVEALED'.
You will read how the saints in Heaven will be shouting praises to the Lord. You will read abut the Tree of Life that was in the Garden of Eden and where it will be located in Heaven. You will learn about the Pure River of Water that proceeds out of the throne of God. Page 48 tells us that God will give us a new song to sing. We will see so many people that came out of the Tribulation Period that God says will be almost impossible for us to count (page 63). We will see angels and we will be able to spend time with them. There is a good article I wrote about angels on my website, Uneed2no.com.
The Lord is going to prepare a huge feast for Christians to dine with Him. The Lord's table will stretch from one end of Heaven to the other, if possible. and the Lord Himself shall serve us (Page 203). But only those who have accepted Christ into their heart will be allowed to enjoy this time in Heaven.
Page 201 warns us about a misbelief that Satan has circulating the world today. It is called 'Easy Beliefism'.
Easy Beliefism is simply believing you are going to Heaven when the fact is, is that you truly haven't repented of your sins and asked Christ into your heart. There is an illustration on Page 201. It shows two chairs. One chair is empty with Satan hovering under it, like the snake he was in the Garden of Eden, telling people you're fine. Satan told Adam and Eve, don't worry, you'll be fine, nothing will happen to you. But God had told Adam that if they ate of the Tree they would sure die. Easy Beliefism is like those same lies. You see that chair of salvation. You know you can sit on it. You know it can hold you up. But just because you see a chair, does not make it your chair. You see the chair, you believe that the chair is there and you can believe in the fact that the chair is able to hold you up but you don't take action. You do not accept the chair. You don't sit on the chair, nor do you trust it by sitting on it. Don't be fooled when Satan tells you that all you have to do is 'believe'. James 2:19 says 'the devils believe also'. If it is only belief that gets people into Heaven, then the demons would be there too. They believe. The bible terminology of belief is accepting. Accepting the fact that Christ did die on the cross. Accepting the fact that we are sinners. Asking Christ to forgive our sins and come into our hearts and be our Saviour. Another falsehood of Satan's is that people can be 'good' people and work their way into Heaven. This is not true. God says in Ephesians 2:8-9: "For by grace are ye saved, and that not of yourselves; it is a gift of God, NOT of WORKS'. This book touches on the precious death of Christ on the cross for our sins. Why? Because the Lord loves us so much, that He left a perfect environment to come down to our filth and die for us. On Page 4 in the book "The REAL Revelation REVEALED' gives a great example of how we cannot work our way into Heaven. Suppose you work in a sewer plant. You are all covered with yucky stuff. Pretend you have a friend who is a doctor. A surgeon. You decide you are going to stop in and see this doctor on your way home from work. The doctor is in his operating room. It is all sterile, all clean. You decide you are just going to walk right in. Do you really think your doctor friend will let you do that? No. He cannot. Anyone who comes into the room must be sterile first. That is how Heaven is. God is the doctor. He is holy. He is sterile. Those that come in must be sterilized by the blood of Christ. Not by being a good person. Not by good works. It is the accepting the blood of Christ to cleanse us.
This book 'The Real RR will definitely change your life. By the time you finish this book, you will know, not just guess, where you will go when it is your turn to die. You will know if you truly have a home in Heaven.
The Lord let me write this book to give you knowledge of the truth. To encourage you to take the time to accept Christ as your Saviour. It only takes seconds to ask Christ into your heart. It took a lot longer than that for Him to die for you.
This book, 'The REAL Revelation REVEALED' is a true God-inspired book designed to give you assurance of a Home in Heaven, to give you the promise that God will wipe away all your tears and make will make something great out of the hardships in your life. But it only starts by asking Christ into your heart. Page 195, talks about the Lamb's Book of Life. Are you in the Lamb's Book of Life? Please make sure. Don't just guess or hope. Read this book, The REAL Revelation REVEALED. It is available in eBook or physical book at Uneed2no.com. Because you do Need 2 no.
