The Apocalypse

I really enjoyed the reading, I have never read Revelation at all before. We don’t talk about it in my church, we like to focus on a happier topic not how the world is going to end. I completely agree that we shouldn’t look at Revelation as the end of the world but as a way to change and what we need to change about ourselves. I always heard Revelation is about the end of the world and that just always depressed me. So to see that there is a different perspective that it is not the end of the world is a better perspective for me. That is what I choose to believe because there is no way that a monster with however many heads is going to come to our world today and either way if it is a metaphor, what is the metaphor? I don’t like the fact that it is thought that God is going to come and judge us all and see if we will go to heaven, I mean yes we have to live in a way that he would but it makes me sad that there are so many people that would be dammed and not go to heaven. It feels like we should read it like we read most things in the Bible and really analyze and see if we are asking the wrong questions and looking for the wrong things, like usual.
