The Apocalypse Deception

Book excerpt: THE EXPLOSIVE EXPOS� OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION IN WHICH, FOR ALMOST 2000 YEARS, CHRISTIANS HAVE BEEN FOOLED BY A MONSTROUS DECEPTION.The Apocalypse, also known as the Book of Revelation is the last book of the New Testament. It begins with these words:"The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw." (Revelation. 1:1, KJV)Those words are not those of Jesus Christ, contrary to the claims of its author. Transmitted through an unnamed angel, they are part of a monstrous deception that has plagued Christianity ever since they were first penned. Furthermore, contrary to popular belief, the Apocalypse was not written by John the Apostle, the son of Zebedee nor is it.This book expands upon the scholary work, "The Apocalypse" written by R.H. Charles in 1920, the famous scholar widely recognised as the greatest authority of his time in matters of Jewish eschatology and apocrypha. His translations of the Book of Enoch and the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs especially are still widely used. Do not be deceived. The Apocalypse was rejected for seven hundred years by the churches of Asia Minor, where the book originated, and with good reason. The book of Revelation unleashes a vision of a gore-fest at the End of Time, a relentless apocalyptic nightmare, badly written, repetitive and self-contradictory. In chapter after chapter, it details outlandish horrors, the supposed fate that imminently will befall the enemies of God. As you will discover if you dare to read this book, these are not the words of Jesus. Do not be scared of the horrors described in the Apocalypse, because the prophecies therein described were made by a false prophet and they are completely untrue. Instead, one should rely on the prophecies as told by Jesus in the Gospels and the prophets of the Hebrew scriptures, such as that of Daniel, Ezekiel, Zechariah, Micah and Isaiah to provide the information that we need understand this great event in human history. The Second Coming of Christ and the Kingdom of God. Who then wrote the Apocalypse? He is the same person that John the Elder confronted in the Roman Baths of Ephesus and called "the enemy of the Truth". If as I will show, that the Book of Revelation was written by this person, then clearly, he is an enemy of the Truth, the Apocalypse cannot be included the Christian Canon of the New Testament. Now take heed of a prophecy that Jesus made about a future time after his crucifixion."Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not follow them." (Luke 21:8)Do not follow anyone who says "the time is near" Jesus says. Do not be deceived he says. Yet this is exactly what the writer of the Apocalypse says."Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is near." (Revelation 22:10)As a Christian, as long as you adhere to the words of Jesus and the Apostles recorded in the Gospels and the other writings of the New Testament, then the council of John the Elder, the disciple that Jesus loved and the author of the Fourth Gospel, will serve you well. Quoting the words of Jesus:"If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.'" (John 8:32)May this book set you free, but this it will not do unless you are willing look past your prejudices, seek the truth and read it. You will not regret it if you do.
