Revelation

Front Cover
Westminster John Knox Press, 1998 M01 1 - 110 pages

The book of Revelation is filled with extravagant images that some believe forecast gloom and doom. On the contrary, Revelation intends to encourage its readers, using a type of literature that was common at the time it was written. The true message of the book is one of hope, looking ahead toward God's ultimate victory over evil.
