We treat Revelation like a puzzle that needs to be figured out so we can figure out when Jesus is going to return. But what if we did know? What if the numbers and signs added up and it all pointed to tomorrow! Would we be ready? Would our friends and family?Revelation is not a puzzle. It's a revelation. So what does Revelation really reveal?Revelation reveals God's power and authority over time. Revelation reveals God's judgment on thousands of years of sin.
