What is the Apocalypse?
People love to throw around the word apocalypse. If you do a Google
search of the words zombie apocalypse almost 3 million results come
back! But what does the word apocalypse even mean?
The word apocalypse comes from the Greek word apokalypsis (that’s
easy enough to remember). The very last book of the Christian Bible,
known as Revelation in English, comes from the Greek word
apokalypsis.
Apokalypsis (Greek) ä-po-kä'-lü-psēs/noun: lay bare, disclosure of truth,
instruction concerning things before unknown, manifestation, or
appearance.
Apokalypsis appears 18 times in the Greek New Testament. The best
way to really find out the truest meaning of this word is to look at
how it is used in the New Testament.

The writers of the New Testament received great revelation or
apokalypsis of the life, works, and role of Messiah Jesus. Some of the
synonyms used in the New Testament scriptures for the word
apokalypsis are: lighten, manifest, coming, reveal, and appear.
Each of these words help us to form a proper New Testament
definition of apokalypsis:
New Testament Definition of Apocalypse:
That which was hidden has now been revealed in Jesus the Messiah!
The word apocalypse doesn’t seem so frightening now, does it?
So what’s all the fuss about the coming apocalypse? Well, even
though the word itself means revelation, the actual book of Revelation
does have some scary apocalyptic, earth-shattering, zombie-like
events. The last day events recorded in the book of Revelation foretell
a time of great distress for planet earth. Even the New Testament
writer of a book addressed to the Romans promised a day of wrath
and future apocalypse where God will judge an unrepentant world
(Romans 2:5).
The question begs, should you be worried about a coming wrath?
That is a loaded question, but an excellent one! I will address this in
part two (cliff hangers are awesome).
Part II- Should I fear the apocalyptic
events of Revelation?
