The Book of Revelation is God's final word to the Church: a striking revelation of the things He wants it to know, expressed in language and forms that dazzle and often startle. Perhaps that is why many Christians find it intimidating.
Derek Thomas writes to dispel some of that fear and shows that Revelation is—above all—a book about Jesus Christ: whose intention, in addition to humbling our pride with a vision of God's absolute sovereignty over all past, present, and future events, is to comfort us in difficult times with the knowledge of Christ's final victory.
Derek Thomas guides us through this series of seven astonishing visions that represent the development of the words Jesus said to Peter: 'Build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.'
