Eucharist – The 6th Sunday of Easter – 25 May 2025
I have mentioned a few times my affection for the Book of Revelation. Most people are at a loss to know what to do with it. Is it science fiction or a B grade horror movie? Is it a surrealistic word painting or a bad dream, a nightmare, written up. Many regard it as cryptic code to be deciphered as a map for world history or is it, as I regard it, to be more like inspirational poetry using symbolism and word pictures to draw us into a vision of God’s hope and future. A time when the pain and suffering of this world, death, mourning and crying will be no more, and God will be with us completely and forever (Rev 21 3 – 4).
