Produktbeschreibung
The Book of Revelation is not about the second coming of Christ. It is about the sign of His first coming and the end of the Old Testament age that took place when Jerusalem was destroyed in A.D. 70. The beast was the dynasty of Julius Caesar. The book was written about the time that Nero (i.e. 666) began to persecute the Christians. That is why John was exiled to Patmos. It was not written to us. It was written to the seven churches of Asia. But it was written for us. Therefore, it must be read from their perspective. At the second coming of Christ, He will complete the job. Ever since He ascended to the Ancient of Days, He has been ruling in the midst of His enemies. He is putting down His enemies little by little until even all of creation will be restored as it was before Adam's Fall... no more death, Satan, curse, and sin. This is accomplished by the work of redemption in Christ Jesus. Revelation is not about the headlines. It is about the unveiling of Jesus Christ.
