The author [of Revelation for Today] feels that Revelation for Today provides the Church in general and Christians in particular, with a reasonable, scriptural answer to this book of the Bible. It is true to Christ, to the Bible, and to historic, evangelical Christianity. It seeks to grind no axe, defend no position, advance no sect, whatever its name may be. This sermonic exposition has grown out of a deep desire to know the truth, to honor Christ, and to help win souls to Him.
