What comes to your mind when you see that word? If the complete destruction of the world, darkness and smoke comes to mind you have either watched too many science fiction movies or you may simply have a more modern definition of the word. If the unveiling of Jesus for who He is and His plans to reign over the earth in righteousness came to mind, you are thinking Biblically. The title of the last book of the Bible is “Revelation.” The Greek word is “apokalupsis.” It means “disclosure, manifestation or revealing.” As we’ll see, Revelation discloses reality that would otherwise not be known. Included in the disclosure is the nature of Jesus in His present state and some details of His Second Advent. He arrived the first time in flesh as a baby human. He will come the second time as the exalted Son of God, the King of kings and Lord of lords. What we find in the last book of the Bible is not brand new; the truths were revealed by prophets of old piece by piece. Then, God brought the pieces together in order to give the Apostle John a clear picture of Jesus and what He is planning to do. Please note, this book is not merely an information guide to end times. There is content to be obeyed. Those who hear and obey will be blessed as the Lord promised. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
