The Book of Revelation
Revelation is not first a code to be cracked but a curtain pulled back—an unveiling of Jesus Christ, the slain and risen Lamb who reigns over history. Written to encourage suffering churches under the shadow of empire, it shows John the glorified Son among the lampstands, the throne of heaven surrounded by worship, the seals, trumpets, and bowls of judgment, the dragon and his beasts, the fall of Babylon, the return of the King, and the final defeat of death itself. It ends not with smoke but with a city, where God wipes away every tear and makes his home with his people. Read it as worship and assurance: the Lamb wins.
