Q The book of Revelation has many depictions that help to define the book as Apocalyptic literature. While difficult for us to understand in the context of our lives and times, the imagery would have meant much more to the people of the day to whom John penned the letter. Through all the imagery idea of John's recorded visions the truth that God is in control is never lost and the outcome is He is victorious! Praise God! Since the time of John and his writing Christians have sought to understand the meanings and events of this book, especially the ideas of last days and the second coming of Christ. Our textbook gives us four main ideas (theories) of understanding the return of Christ and the events that surround this. Select the one of the four to which you hold most closely in understanding and explain the how and why of your thinking (Think back to the things Jesus taught in this endeavor).
