"The book of Revelation is a prophecy. Prophecy is a Voice — in this case, the voice of God’s Christ. The Lord Jesus Christ is three things — Prophet, Priest and King. Prophets speak, priests reconcile, and kings rule. Prophecy is the word of God — not merely a foretelling, but a forth-telling. The book of Revelation is undoubtedly the hardest book in the New Testament to understand. However, I also believe that once you grasp by the spirit of wisdom and revelation what it’s talking about, it is the most thrilling book of all! Even though the book is puzzling to the natural man and bewildering to the carnal mind, yet the apostle John wrote with blessed assurance to the inChristed these words of divine surety, "Blessed — happy — to be envied — is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand!" (Rev. 1:3)."
All the revelation symbols can be found in the Old Testament prophets. It’s good to chase the symbols through the Bible and gather all the data.
