Through inspired dreamlike images, John the Revelator dares to imagine a world where the nightmare of endless war finally succumbs to the peaceable reign of Christ. Revelation is where the Lamb is victorious as a lamb! The Christ who is victorious in Revelation is the same Christ who preached his gospel of peace in the Sermon on the Mount. John calls his Christian readers to believe the audacious claim that it is the way of the Lamb that rules the world.
