Summary: Many people in this generation are interested in knowing the end-time secrets about the external events such as antichrist, the seven seals, and destructions. Nobody wants to know the greater revelations and end-time secrets about Jesus Christ.

Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” John 1:49-50

Jesus said “I saw you under the fig tree” which means that “Jesus saw Nathaniel talking to Father God under the fig tree”. Nathaniel spent his quiet time with Father God under the fig tree. Nathaniel discovered two first coming secrets that Jesus was the Son of God and Messiah in his quiet time with Father God under the fig tree. Only Father God knows the mysteries and secrets concerning the first and second comings of Jesus. The main secrets of both comings are about Jesus- His nature and Glory. Nathaniel knew the first coming secrets about Jesus from Father God, but not about the external events.

Many people in this generation are interested in knowing the end-time secrets about the external events such as antichrist, the seven seals, and destructions. Nobody wants to know the greater revelations and end-time secrets about Jesus Christ. The earth in which we will live will be destroyed. So end-time secrets about Antichrist and seven seals will be worthless because they will only be useful for a few years on earth, but will not be useful in heaven. If we gain greater revelations and end time secrets about Jesus, it will be useful to survive the end times and we will be better prepared to spend the next 10,000 years or eternity with Jesus. Some of great mysteries about Jesus are Jesus in creation, Jesus in the millennium, Jesus as Jehovah God, and so on.

End-time secrets about external events such as Antichrist and the Seven Seals are worthless in comparison to end-time secrets about Jesus. End-time secrets regarding external events will only be valuable for 50 years, whereas end-time secrets about Jesus will be useful for the next 10,000 years.

The end-time secrets about Jesus - His nature, cross, love, and mercy are what we need for us prepare for eternity. That is why the author calls the book of Revelation as the "Book of Revelation of Jesus Christ". Its Revelation and end-time secrets about Jesus that are mainly present in the Book of Revelation and not about external events. The end-time glory of Jesus, which is required for the end times and subsequent eras such as the Millennium, eternity, and so on, is present in the Book of Revelation. People are more interested to find the end time secrets about external events. If people want to know more about the end-time secrets regarding external events rather than Jesus, they will not be able to understand the end times and will not be able to find end-time secrets about external events and Jesus.

Revelation and end-time secrets about Jesus are what we need in greater measure to survive the end times and to live eternity with Jesus. There are many hidden mysteries and secrets about Jesus that are yet to be revealed. Maybe Apostle John wrote this book with the intention of inspiring people to pray to God to unveil the mysteries of Jesus Christ in the end times rather than revealing the timings and events of end times.

What we need to understand is that the purpose of the Book of Revelation is not mainly for revealing events and preparing for the end times, but rather for unveiling mysteries and secrets about Jesus in the end times. The revelation of Jesus Christ and His nature will protect us in the end times and prepare us for eternity. Nathaniel discovered two great secrets of first coming - Jesus is the Messiah and son of God in his quiet time with Father God. He didn't need to go anywhere; he discovered these secrets while spending quiet time with Father God. We, too, must spend time with Father God in order to discover the greater revelations and the end-time secrets about Jesus.

Father God is the only one who knows the secrets about the second coming, and we will only know about it if he shares and reveals it. We need to start having a fig tree, a place of quiet time where we might spend time with Father God. Then, ask Father God to reveal end-time secrets concerning Jesus. Only when we have the revelation of Jesus Christ will we be able to survive the end times. The revelation of Jesus has a validity of eternity. May be Father God was expecting us to pray for the revelation of Jesus Christ in the end times i.e. revelation of the greater mysteries of Jesus as well as end-time secrets about Jesus.

But we pray the opposite of what Father God wants: we pray that we get end-time secrets about the seven seals or the antichrist. Since our prayer is not aligned with Father God, that’s why we don’t understand the end times. If we pray for revelation of Jesus Christ, then we will understand about end times.
