empowers the Antichrist and the false prophet, and finally, is doomed to the lake of fire. One final reason to study Revelation is that it’s the only book of the Bible that contains a special blessing for those who read it and keep the things written in it (Revelation 1:3). For this reason Revelation has been aptly called “the Blessing Book.” I pray that the Lord’s rich hand of blessing will rest upon you as we study this book together and strive to understand and apply its truths to our lives.
