The Book of Revelation--The Untold Good News- by Bruce A. Ritter

Cataclysmic environmental changes—a nuclear World War—the rise and fall of governments—food shortages and pestilences run amok! These and other nightmarish events are foretold in the final book of the Bible. Yet few understand the good news contained within it.Imagine the typical Hollywood “doomsday” film: The hero awakens to a post-World War III apocalyptic nightmare of decimated cities, defunct governments and tiny pockets of desperate survivors struggling to stay alive. Millions view the book of Revelation the same way. Even those who have never read Revelation are, to varying degrees, aware of the horrific future it depicts.As with all Scripture in the bible, this prophetic book has long been hidden under a mysterious fog, clouding the thinking of most—especially when it comes to the good news it announces.

People have long believed that a future World War III will arrive that will be a “winner take all” face-off between the U.S.-led democratic nations of the West (including Europe) and Russia, and perhaps China, all ending in “Armageddon”—the end of civilization. But Armageddon is not a battle. Rather, it is a place—the Valley of Megiddo—where forces from the East will gather to clash with the military might of the North (Rev. 9:16; Dan. 11:44).
