The Revelation of JohnStylistically unlike any other part of the New Testament, Revelation is also notoriously bewildering and difficult to understand but, with Barclay's help, we are able to unlock its wonders and blessings. "The Revelation of John" contains many terrors but is also a clarion call to believers: a beautiful proclamation that, beyond the end of days, Christians shall know heaven and the true glory of God. |
