Common Errors of Interpretation
The relevance of Revelation for today is lost if we ignore its historical context and read it with incorrect presuppositions .

Its visions show God working through the “ Lamb ” to implement His kingdom, and it begins in the first century with the “ seven churches of Asia .”
