Book excerpt: Apocalypse, translated literally from Greek, is a disclosure of knowledge, hidden from humanity in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e., a lifting of the veil or revelation, although this sense did not enter English until the 14th century. In religious contexts it is usually a disclosure of something hidden. In the Apocalypse of John, the last book of the New Testament, the revelation which John receives is that of the ultimate victory of good over evil and the end of the present age, and that is the primary meaning of the term, one that dates to 1175. Today, it is commonly (and erroneously) used in reference to any prophetic End Time scenario or to the end of the world in general. The Metaphysics of Truth is an unobserved constant that helps us to see the book of Revelation for what it really is - a mirror to the inseparable bond between past and future, which is the cause and effect of our beliefs and choices. Only through an understanding of the Metaphysics of Truth, can new solutions be found for some of the oldest mysteries of our time and to the secrets of Revelation's cryptic prophecy. Where did we come from? What is our purpose? What is our destiny? Read each of the 5 volumes of the Apocalypse Now series for an unprecedented solution to the most fundamental and important questions to our human existence.
