Teaching the Book of Revelation

Share:

Bible teachers might dread the thought of teaching the Book of Revelation. Yet, God intends blessing from this book:

Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near. (Rev. 1:3)

Notice that this verse does not say, “Blessed is the one who fully understands the words of this prophecy.”

If we focus on what we can understand, it should build within us a faith that we can trust God for the rest. We can be okay knowing that we have a faithful, sovereign God who is all-knowing and all-powerful to bring all this into reality.  If teachers pass on this understanding, they have done well in teaching Revelation.
