Inhaltsangabe

Revelations About Revelation was born of a Pastor’s heart for laypeople, to help them understand a book of the Bible which has been grossly misinterpreted for ages by many preachers and Bible teachers. The author seeks to explain as simply as possible what the Apostle John was actually expressing to people of his own time, in the context of the circumstances they were facing, to help them stand firm for Jesus in the face of persecution. Too many times, Revelation has been presented as some horrifying prediction of the future, when John plainly states that he was sharing with the Church in his own time "the tribulation and the Kingdom and the patient endurance" (Revelation 1:9). He was not speaking of some far-off future tribulation, but the one they were facing at the end of the First Century AD, which has continued to this day and will continue in one form or another, in varying degrees of ferocity, until Christ returns. The author of the present work first preached through Revelation for the two congregations he was serving in 1985. He felt the need to pass this message along to more people than would ever hear him preach, so he began putting it all together in a book in 1987. After a busy life of ministry, other work, and public service, approaching retirement, he was finally able to edit and complete the basic manuscript and prepare it for publication, which he hopes will be helpful to the reader in understanding the strange images of Revelation that those who read may draw strength from the witness of John in difficult times and find courage to stand strong for Christ in any and all circumstances. Glory be to God!
