  • RightTurnClyde on Revelation 1 - 14 years ago
    Revelation is the last book in the Bible and a "wrap up" written about 90AD. In my own opinion too many (preachers and churches) have developed a "Rapture" religion with their entire focus on Revelation and the 144,000. If one is not awed by the gospels and the resurrection then the remainder is not even fireside reading. The important message in Revelation (again i my opinion) it the admonition of the seven churches to avoid false doctrine (read Mark 8 and Matthew 17) and that Jesus Christ will return again in glory (Parousia) to establish the New Jerusalem. [many of the early believers thought Jesus would return BEFORE they died. Now John, the last, knew he was passing and bid the believers -- stay the course, keep the faith and Jesus will come in glory. Good advise.
