The Book of Revelation has been often overlooked by Pastors and Bible teachers. I suppose this is because it is believed to have been a difficult area to interpret and also some Christians are apprehensive about learning of the last events to occur on earth.
I. The Purpose of the Book
Revelation is a book which describes the coming of the Kingdom, explaining how this relates to the judgments of God, the collapse of human government and the calling of the Jews. It is the final book in the New Testament. Most importantly, the purpose of this revelatory letter is also suggested by the contents of the letter. Its intent was to strengthen and encourage the Christians so they could endure the tribulations they were suffering, to call them to repentance and a spiritual renewal, to admonish and exhort them to a faithfulness to the true Word and its teachings, and to assure them of the certain hope of victory that was theirs in Christ over their adversaries and all evil.
