Can Revelation Be About Anything Besides “The End Of The World?”

I found a great beginning of a study of Revelation here and it’s looking at the Book of Revelation from a different view than the typical Eschatology-driven view. Instead, it appears like Nick is going to do a study of Revelation without introducing anything that falls into the “what happens when” aspects. If that’s the case, I say Kudos!

I’ll admit that I’m biased here, because my book, In Case of Armageddon, Break Glass takes a different view of Revelation, as well. Instead of “what happens when,” it asks “what does this mean for me, right now?” and uncovers a completely different book than the doom and gloom that people find when reading the book to see what’s going to happen at the end of the world.

Honestly, I wish more Christian scholars would look at Revelation from a viewpoint other than “Armageddon” – it would go a long way to help Christians read the book without feeling so overwhelmed (or excited & ready for the world to end, which is worse in my opinion)

Thoughts?
