Revelations 19-20

(September 9, 2013)
Looking back through this book in light of our understanding of history makes me wonder how we should look at modern revelation.  On the one hand, many of the things revealed in this book have not happened yet (and a concurrent reader could be excused for wondering whether they were meant to come soon).  On the other hand, the principles that needed to be lived must be lived today.  So, in that sense, it is wholly unproductive to consider within ourselves when the events foretold will come.  Instead, we must keep ourselves ready for them whenever they come.
