Eschatology write up in progress...

Heres a nice video by Rob Bell that helps give some context to revelation. It's a lot of historical context.

A VERY interesting video regardless of your desired interpretation of Revelation or Eschatology.
It's important to realize that God doesn't talk to you in ancient hebrew, greek, or aramaic today if you speak english.

Yahweh didn't speak to John and make references to Kanye West, Lost, or crack Obama jokes.

Yahweh talked to people of a specific culture, in a specific fashion. They had their issues and traditions of the day. It just so happens one of those traditions is worshipping Caesar as lord of lords, while a choir followed him around ans sang Hymns to him.
