The book of Revelation is often ignored because it seems cryptic and confusing, and the apocalyptic language is daunting to some. But God says: “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near” (Rev. 1:3). “The Revelation of Jesus Christ” penned by the Apostle John, offers a glorious vision of Christ’s victory and God’s sovereign plan to redeem and judge the world.

We see that the book of Revelation points continually to the person and work of Jesus Christ and a careful study of it, along with other Bible prophecy about the End Times, will give us clarity and confidence about what is to come. It will strengthen our faith and increase our love for the Lord Jesus, and should fill us with expectation for the "blessed hope" that is Jesus' return for His bride.
