The Book of Revelation: A Commentary

by Chuck Missler

The Book of Revelation is the only book of the Bible with a Promise to the reader! Why? What makes this book so special? Revelation is a "lens" that puts the entire Bible into focus. The lens is focused on the person of Jesus Christ, and his destiny is imminent. This is a book of We are overcomers! We are the ultimate winners in the game of life! (I read the we win!) One of the reasons this book strikes us as strange is because of our lack of understanding concerning the Old Testament. The Book of Revelation consists of 404 verses that contain over 800 allusions to the Old Testament. These are detailed, along with Chuck's analysis of the design and structure of this fascinating book. Learn about the past, present and future of the Church and our ultimate destiny. This is an ideal "first study" and foundational for every Christian. This study contains 24 hours of verse by verse teachings

Missler can be controversial, and tends to be reactionary in his current events material, but his Bible studies are incomparable, and his study on Revelation is some of his finest work. If you want to understand the Bible as it was understood by the people contemporary to the writers, Missler is one of the very few commentators who makes the effort to help his listeners cross those barriers of culture and time. It's too bad he gets a bad rap for some of his more fanciful ideas; the fact is, the Bible was written for people who believed in the supernatural, and who lived and thought very differently than we do. It's foolish to try to understand the Bible from a modern, rationalist, Western perspective - those who insist on viewing the scriptures through that lens will fail to understand what the writers - and the ultimate Author - meant to teach.

Chuck has a way of explaining scripture that is easy for the average person to relate to. I appreciate the fact that he says many time don't take my word for it, read it for yourself then form your opinions. I highly recommend this book for studying Revelation.

Missler is my favorite Bible teacher! Every time I listen to his commentaries I learn so much more about the Bible. I highly recommend his works!

a 30 hour cd-rom that goes into LOTS of detail about the Book of Revelation. It'll really open your eyes to all the nuggets of info and depth and connection/consistency found throughout Scriptures. And I believe Revelation is a good place to start b/c 1- it tells you how the amazing story is going to end and 2- there are references to about 62 of the other 65 books in the Bible, so you can get a good overall feel of the Scriptures.
