Bible In The News

The book of Revelation was given to show the servants of the Lord Jesus Christ "things which must shortly come to pass". This restricts the full understanding of the book to those who are truly his servants, however it does not restrict those servants to a particular class in one generation. To all generations of his servants believing the Hope of Israel, from John until the his return, the prophecy would reveal "things which must shortly come to pass". It revealed things which would shortly come to pass to John's generation and so it has for every generation since. Every generation with vision could find itself in God's timetable.
