In every age, people have tried to make sense out of the Book of Revelation. Unfortunately most fail to grasp its spiritual meaning and rich theological insights simply because they fail to read apocalyptic literature correctly. Sensational theories and interpretative schemes to explain the supposed meaning behind Revelation's cryptic symbols and baffling images often confuse, frustrate and even deceive many sincere Christians. So how can Catholics make heads or tails of this mystifying book and, more importantly, spiritually benefit from this inspired text?
