The book of Revelation is one of the most intriguing books ever written. It contains many strange imageries. Unfortunately, most writers have given a literal interpretation to these imageries, causing much confusion. Instead of making the book more understandable, for multitudes of people writers have made the book more frightening. Consequently, the overwhelming majority of people don't believe we will ever understand the original intended message of the book of Revelation. This is unfortunate because God WANTS us to understand His message. That is why it exists. Revelation 1:1 says 'God sent and signified'. The greek word for signified (semaino) literally means 'to cause to be specific and clear'. God has something to say to us and He WANTS His message to be specific and clear. This book will accomplish that for you. We use imageries every day, expressions like 'thrown under the bus', 'step up to the plate', or 'smoking gun'. Imagine the confusion that would result if we tried to literalize these expressions in our conversations. The context of our conversation helps us to rightly apply these expressions. That is why this book will help you to understand the book of Revelation. This book begins by scripturally identifying the context of the book, then progresses forward to scripturally unravel the metaphoric meanings of the symbolic imageries. The result is a practical, understandable, relevant message from God pertaining to our day. This book deals specifically with the book sealed with seven seals. It will help you to understand what the seven-sealed book is and what God has to say to us through each seal, again both 'specifically and clearly', more specific and clear than you ever imagined. This book is going to help you to understand more of the book of Revelation than you ever thought possible. I guarantee it!
