We're all interested in what the future holds.
What can we expect in the coming months and years? Is there
a way to know what lies ahead? Where should we look for answers?
How will future events affect our families and loved ones?
Human efforts at predicting the future are notoriously inaccurate.
Self-proclaimed prophets have been proven wrong time and time
again. But there is a sure way to know what the future holds.
It's written in advance in the pages of the Bible.
Revelation is, to many people, the Bible's most puzzling book.
They find its strange symbols and images confusing and mysterious.
But it need not be so. The book's very name means a revealing,
an opening up to understanding. Its first verse tells us it
was written to reveal "things which must shortly take place."
We've prepared an exciting, eye-opening booklet—The
Book of Revelation Unveiled—to help you understand
what will take place in the days ahead. This 32-page full-color
booklet will take you through the major themes of the book of
Revelation, helping you discover how it all fits together. In
this booklet you'll learn tomorrow's headlines today, discovering
the major trends and events that will shape the world in the
days ahead. You can't afford to be without this priceless knowledge. |
