Below are summary notes I took while listening to the lecture below of Metropolitan Athanasios of Limassol. This is the first of 20 video lectures on the Book of Revelation, also known as the Apocalypse.
- The Apocalypse of John is the last book of the 27 books of the New Testament.
- It is the last book of the New Testament chronologically as well, written by the Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian while he was in exile on the island of Patmos.
- It is a prophetic text of things that were taking place in the Church at the time and that were to take place in the future.
- We should know the contents of this book to understand that we are all on a journey that is leading towards a conclusion.
