The Vision of Hope in Revelation

Despite gallons of ink spilled and hours of movies made on the book of Revelation, it remains one of the most misunderstood books of Scripture. But Scott Duvall has good news for the discouraged reader--you don't have to figure out a complicated string of timelines and political theories to understand the heart of God's message to his people in Revelation.

Taking a thematic approach to Revelation, Duvall helps you focus on the vision of hope Revelation provides believers by exploring the biblical themes of God, worship, the people of God, the Holy Spirit, our mission, the Lamb of God, judgment, perseverance, and more, allowing you to understand and apply the message of Revelation--right here, right now.

If the last book of the Bible is still a mystery to you, or if your knowledge of it is limited to what you've read in novels or seen in movies, get ready for an eye-opening, faith-strengthening read.


"This book is biblical theology for the church at its best."--Daniel L. Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

"Scott Duvall is to be heartily commended for providing this clear guide that will enable students, teachers, and pastors to comprehend and communicate the riches so often missed in the Bible's concluding book. It is truly a joy and a delight to recommend this outstanding and insightful exploration of these ten central and overarching themes in the book of Revelation."--David S. Dockery, president of Trinity International University

"The perfect blend of sound biblical interpretation, rich theological reflection, and practical application, complete with small-group discussion questions at the end of each chapter. I love this book and can't wait to use it in the church and with my university students!"--George H. Guthrie, Benjamin W. Perry Professor of Bible at Union University
