"Many find Revlation intimidating or just plain confusing. But there's no need to be scared, and every reason to be excited, as it moves our imagination and helps us see the world from heaven's perspective."
Join Tim Chester as he opens up the book of Revelation, helping you get to grips with its meaning and showing how it transforms our hearts and lives today.
Many Christians are confused by the book of Revelation. It moves from strange and disturbing images to warm and practical encouragement; from the fires of Hell to wonderful pictures of a glorious eternity.
And yet the message of the final book of the Bible is both clear and simple. Despite everything that is going wrong with our world, God remains in control. And when we see history, our present, and our future from heaven's perspective, it will encourage us to trust God and remain faithful to the end.
This accessible, absorbing expository guide opens up this book for new and mature Christians alike. It is more applied than a typical commentary, making it a great resource for personal devotion, as well as useful for leading small group studies or sermon preparation.
You can read through this book as a normal book...work through it as part of your daily Bible-reading routine using the questions for reflection at the end of each chapter...or use it to help you teach this book of the Bible, whether in small groups or from the pulpit.
Written for people of every age and stage, from enquirers to new believers to pastors and teachers, this flexible resource is for you to:
- READ: As a guide to these gripping events, helping you to see Christ and marvel at God's power, plans and love.
- FEED: As a daily devotional to help you grow in Christ as you read and meditate on this portion of God's word.
- LEAD: As notes to aid you in explaining, illustrating and applying this book as you preach or lead a Bible study.
Whoever you are, and however you use it, this is...Revelation for You.
