Revelation Study # 2 - Seven Letters to Seven Churches - Chapters 2 & 3

THE REVELATION SERIES - Have you ever tried to read the book of Revelation? A lot of people start reading the bible and skip to the end to find out what happens. If you don't know what you are reading, this can be really scary. There are a lot of books and commentaries written about the book of Revelation, many are really good but most of them are outdated and rather boring. Come on now, we are in the 21st century and I think it’s time that we start thinking outside the box when it comes to the book of Revelation, after all it’s probably the greatest book ever written. Note I didn’t say think outside the Bible, I believe the best commentary on the Bible is the Bible itself. Revelation is the last of the 66 books that make up the Bible and it’s just like the Lord to save the best for last.

This is definitely not going to be your daddy’s study on the book of Revelation; we are living in a time of rapidly advancing technologies and in a world where terminology changes almost weekly. For far too long we have been stuck with ancient and outdated images regarding the Bible and especially the book of Revelation. When most of us read the bible our thoughts and images immediately take us back to ancient biblical times and while for the most part that works for the majority of the bible we must remember that the book of Revelation takes place in the near future. So as we read through the book of Revelation we need to envision a world more like the futuristic world we see in the Star Wars series of movies, a world full of incredible sites and inspiring wonders, magnificent creatures and still this will not even fully encompass or even come close to what we will really experience.
