The biblical book entitled Revelation is best studied when you have reached the point of wondering whether there is a meaning to existence and why is there a Bible?

I remember, as a new believer reading the book of Revelation to my eldest child, and we were both wondrously lost in the dreamlike cartoon comic images that children imagine.

The book did not start making cogent sense until I had absorbed much other scripture. I want to help you learn the secrets hidden in the mysterious book of Revelation.

Many believers give up on comprehending the book of Revelation but that is mistaken as it is fruitful and inspired, because it has much to say about what happens in heaven and beyond -The Eternal State- and the main reason is that the Godhead wants to encourage you about your future. In fact, the Godhead warns us not to ignore its study, see Revelation Chapter 22:18 – 19.

Know that …

1. Numbers and images are often symbolic in the Bible so do not bypass them. Ask mature believers about their meaning and look within all scripture.

2. Compare and contrast symbolic images with those used in the earlier books of Scripture, both Old and New Testaments as you find the Godhead often

repeats his methods to achieve consistent outcomes in mankind's history.

3. Learn how to live a life well pleasing to both God and your fellow man. Drink deeply dear fellow travellers throughout life, see Rev.20:17. The verb "drink" is symbolising communication with the Godhead and absorbing His instruction.

4. When reading you will immediately understand that the story is progressive but sometimes the Book of Revelation goes back over a cycle, and studies an

aspect in the cycle of events exposing a fresh perspective you are ready to understand.

Truth exposed is helpful and comforting. It will help you throughout your life.

Reader, there is so much in this publication. Use this as a companion to the biblical book of Revelation, but firstly read the sections herein titled "Seals – Trumpets – Bowls" to get a general sense of what the biblical book is trying to reveal to you.

When you get to Chapter 12 of Revelation, try reading just a small part of the chapter at a time, then turn and read the notes on the same part in this publication. The style is conversational rather than academic and you have to think out how you might change, and where you need to grow to improve, stage by stage. The Holy Spirit will help you and some of you already know The Holy Spirit. Be sure that you have an invisible friend on earth helping you through life, He is the Holy Spirit and He is everywhere and very close to you or inside your spirit if you have surrendered your life to Jesus Christ. Some of you are unfamiliar with Him and find the realisation either amazing or strange but be reassured He wants to help you throughout Life. Through study of the book of Revelation and this publication, you will get acquainted with Him. The omnipresent Holy Spirit will help you once you start reading.
