We are about to embark on an exciting journey of discovery as we explore the Book of Revelation, chapter by chapter. The book itself is filled with symbology of rich meaning, yet the very essence of the book is the Revelation of Jesus Christ; in other words, its pages unveil the sublime personage of our Lord and His divine plan of redemption for man.
Our study of the book will not be an exhaustive one, for the layers of truth within its twenty-two chapters is far too vast to compact into a concise study. Instead, we shall look at each chapter with a sweeping glance, to see the big picture of what is happening, and then move onto the next chapter. It is the best approach to take, because much of this website’s other content drills down into the finer details of the book, meaning that we will not have to examine it all in our study series.
The Book of Revelation does not read chronologically, nor is it to be read like a newspaper. This is because the scenes described in the book often overlap each other or skip around, which can create confusion for the unfamiliar reader. Our study is specially tailored for those unfamiliar with the book or needing a little more guidance in understanding how everything connects together.
It is recommended that the reader supplement this series with the book entitled, “An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages” by the prophet William Marrion Branham. Such a book is a perfect accompaniment to our series, and will furnish the reader with many extra details to help clarify what we shall be looking at in our study.
