The Book of Revelation sits at the end of the Christian New Testament. For some Christians it is the most important book in their Bible. It is a book of violent visions. Despite it being written to a 1st century audience the book continues to be used throughout history to attack "heretics" and "sinners". This course seeks to present a Progressive Christian understanding. Outcomes from the course will help students gain a healthy understanding of the book and a Jesus who taught us to love, forgive and care for the “other”.
