Revelation: A Book of Promises

Description

Is there a book in the Bible that is more misunderstood or mysterious than Revelation? In the 66 chapters of the Bible, no other book is the subject of more speculations, questions, and, yes, fear. In his new book, Revelation: A Book of Promises, pastor and evangelist Greg Laurie takes a deep dive and demystifies one of the most colorful and image-driven books of the Bible in what promises (no pun intended) to be a fascinating read. Revelation: A Book of Promises is designed to help you see Jesus as the centerpiece, the star, and the focus of Revelation. With this eminently practical guide, you can experience the blessing promised to those who read, hear, and keep the works of this prophetic book. After all, Bible prophecy is not given to inflate our brains but to enlarge our hearts. There is no denying that our world is in turmoil: a global pandemic that continues to wreak havoc in our communities, political tensions that seem to only increase with the dawn of a new administration, and social issues that threaten the very fabric of society, just to name a few. In the book of Revelation, the apostle John writes of a world facing a time of reckoning, waiting for Jesus’ return, waiting for the Rapture. One obvious question faces the Lord’s followers: Are these signs of the times? Are we getting closer to the events depicted in Revelation? Should we fear what is coming? In his trademark style, Pastor Greg simplifies the language, outlining what John meant and offering readers a thoughtful analysis and comforting narrative to bring confidence in His promise. Without bringing doomsday prophecies, Pastor Greg reiterates that we are indeed in the end days, that the Lord’s return is near, and that we must understand both what is happening around us, and more importantly, what is about to happen.–Amazon.com
