Revelation Week 4 Reading Guide
This week in service we'll dig into John's vision of the Dragon and the Beast, exploring concepts of hell, Satan/Devil and systemic injustices. As you read, consider what John is trying to tell us about how sin and evil are manifest in the world. Is it individuals with personal, moral failings? Or institutions and systems that are too big to be controlled? Or both? Either way, John's description is one of this reality at war with the reality of heaven.
