Understanding Revelation
Most people who know anything at all about the Bible want to know more about the book of Revelation. The Apostle John, exiled on the isle of Patmos in his old age, wrote down what the Lord Jesus revealed to him in a message concerning the events surrounding the end of the world as we know it. However, much of the book is difficult for people to understand. There are three keys this author believes are essential for a solid and thorough understanding of Revelation. First, Revelation changes scenes quite often. One moment John is speaking about something that is taking place on earth. The next he is explaining something that is taking place in heaven. The reader must know which scene is being discussed. Second, there are many symbols used in Revelation, but each of those symbols are explicitly explained somewhere else in Scripture. The reader does not have to come up with an explanation from the extravagant recesses of his imagination. Third, one should not make Revelation fit current events. Rather, put your trust in the Word of God and let current events come into place as the �day of Jesus Christ� approaches.
