You’re Reading Revelation All Wrong with Scot McKnight
Manage episode 393300237 series 3002124
End Times, the mark of the beast, and the Antichrist. Oh, my! Were these your takeaways from reading Revelation? You’re not alone! Today’s guest, Scot McKnight, author of Revelation for the Rest of Us, also grew up viewing this book as a prediction of End Times events. But what’s wrong with reading Revelation as a predictive prophecy? What’s the real purpose of this apocalyptic literature? In this fascinating episode, McKnight explains how John designed his Book of Revelation to disciple readers into dissidents of the ways of the world and empire, or "Babylon." Learn how the Bible repeatedly uses Babylon as imagery, how Babylon finds its way into the church, and how Christians can learn to live in Babylon without being contaminated by it. We hope you leave this episode experiencing the real wisdom, witness, and worship lessons Revelation was meant to offer. Listen now!
