Revelation Realist: Revelation About Jesus Christ From Jesus Christ
Ebook
Like the rest of the Bible, Revelation is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction for righteousness. God's revelation of Jesus is not coded or a maze of literature with secrets for only theologians to decipher. The Holy Spirit makes the central message of the Bible available to everyone. Revelation uses literary devices within the context of a message to communicate an absolute truth. Open this book, enter this symbolic but authentic world, and be transported by all the visions of Revelation. Warning: you may be shocked out of spiritual slumber.
“Many would describe the book of Revelation as ‘confusing, perplexing, and mystifying.’ And when asked to describe the array of resources available to help them understand Revelation, they might well repeat, ‘confusing, perplexing, and mystifying.’ Into this body of writings, Eric Cline brings a fresh resource that, while grounded in careful scholarship, remains user friendly and readily applicable. Both the casual and experienced reader will gain new insights into Revelation and discover thoughtful ways to enhance their lives and ministries.”

“In this important book, Eric Cline does a nice job of blending history, archaeology, and the spiritual with the scriptural text of the book of Revelation. Without radical ideas or dramatic concepts, Cline’s approach brings the scriptural text to a level of understanding for the average person to relate and comprehend. This book is well worth reading.”
—Marvin Metzinger, parish religious education resource officer
“The book of Revelation can be controversial no matter your faith. Eric Cline knows this and has taken us through this final book of the Bible using wisdom and knowledge of Scripture in a way that no matter who you are, what stage in life you are in, or what faith you profess, the journey is real and is now. I recommend this book for anyone remotely interested in reading Revelation.”
—Pam Schoenecker, cytotechnologist
“While I am not a biblical scholar, Eric Cline engaged my mind and critical thinking skills in his incredibly well-researched Revelation Realist. If you ever wanted to study the book of Revelation and have felt intimidated by the text, Cline brings it to a level of study that make it easier to understand. This book explores new perspectives on Revelation eschatology and the meaning behind much of its imagery, all while keeping the simplicity of the gospel at the forefront.”
