Learning to Read Prophecy

The Book of Revelation stands at the end of a very long line of prophetic books. To understand the Revelator's message, it is very handy to understand the patterns and styles he is deliberately following.
These are some brief lessons that will help you orientate yourself in the world of apocalyptic prophecy. These lessons barely touch directly on the actual content of Revelation, but I highly recommend taking a look at the listed scriptures, just to get an idea of some ways the Spirit of God inspires prophecy.
Not everyone will want or need to read these posts, but if you take even just a few moments to skim the brief lessons, you will be well-prepared when we start in with the direct study.

Our gospel of John study is still open at the moment for questions or insights or whatnot.
To find a full list of all active groups, check out the main home page of ccel.org; there you'll see a list of the most recently created groups; click on the expand/see more/see all grups (can't remember what it's called) and you should get the full list.
Some groups won't let you read or post without joining; I tried to make everything in John publically viewable, but if you want to post I think you may have to click "join group".
