The prophecy of Revelation is mysterious, frightening and other-worldly. It is also frustrating to understand. However, there is no lack of books and commentaries that seek to explain it and there is little agreement among scholars on its interpretation. Jesus tells us, these are “things which are destined to take place" and when they do they will happen “with speed. The purpose of this present work is to uncover the events that must surely come to pass. I invite you to join me on this journey as we discover a different path to the understanding of the book of Revelation. When we arrive, I believe you will be as surprised as I was by how easy the journey turned out to be.
