Not Interested In Revelation

Q. I’m not all that interested in Revelation beyond the letters to the seven churches. As I plan to be on the first bus to heaven (Rapture), I’ve never felt the rest of the book really applied to me! Am I wrong? Everyone at my church gets pretty excited and worked up over the Book of Revelation, but I just don’t feel it. Is there something wrong with my spiritual condition for feeling this way?

A. The fact is that the Church will not be on Earth for most of the Book of Revelation, so it doesn’t really pertain to us. However the Lord promises a blessing to those who read, hear, and take to heart the things written therein (Rev. 1:3) This means He wants us to understand it anyway.

Your lack of interest has so far disqualified you from this blessing. I would suggest asking the Lord to help you develop a greater interest in the book so you can receive His blessing.
