Revelation is one of the most misused books in the Bible — this session helps you read it for what it actually is: a message of hope and endurance for suffering believers.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Chan approaches Revelation not as a newspaper code for predicting current events but as a pastoral letter written to persecuted first-century churches. How does that interpretive lens change the way you read passages that might otherwise feel cryptic?
2.Revelation 1:3 promises a blessing to those who 'read aloud the words of this prophecy and hear it and keep what is written in it.' What would it mean to 'keep' Revelation — to obey and apply it — rather than just decode it?
3.The central vision of Revelation is that Jesus — the Lamb who was slain — reigns over all history. How does that vision of Christ's sovereignty over suffering and evil speak to your own experience of hardship?
