Episode notes
John's Exile On Patmos
- John was exiled to the tiny prison island of Patmos after surviving an attempted execution by Rome.
- This personal hardship provides context for the urgency and authority of Revelation's message.
Revelation's Clear Purpose
- Revelation is a singular revelation from Jesus that both reveals Him and is revealed by Him to His people.
- The book aims to disclose truth, not hide it in an unsolvable code, so its purpose is clarity rather than secret prediction.
Don't Treat Revelation Like A Puzzle
- Relax about decoding hidden timetables; Revelation isn't meant to be a combination lock of future dates.
- Hold eschatological views with an open hand and avoid making them foundational to faith.
