The Book of Revelation

"Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet. Loud voices in heaven cried out: THE KINGDOM OF THE WORLD NOW BELONGS TO OUR LORD AND TO HIS ANOINTED ONE, AND HE SHALL REIGN FOREVER AND EVER." Is this passage the key to the whole Book of Revelation? Father Tickle contends it is. In this passage, Jesus is Lord of the universe, calling the entire world, Christian and non-Christian, to repentance and commitment... to resist all evil, never compromising with it. This book presents a fascinating look at the Book of Revelation from the Catholic perspective, based on 2,000 years of tradition. Father Tickle's sound interpretation shows that Revelation's message is as important to you today as it was to early Christians. Drawing from various Christian Scripture scholars, the author writes with enthusism in the easy-to-read, easy-to-understand style which distinguishes all his books. His thorough, interesting approach provides insights and understanding of the symbols, message, and theme of the beautiful Book of Revelation. Each chapter concludes with Review/Discussion Questions and a Prayer Reflection to further clarify and solidify the meaning of this often misunderstood invitation to God's people. --- from books back cover
