This book pursues the conviction that the cosmic conflict imagery in Revelation is the primary and controlling element in the account of the aspiration of the Roman Empire and the imperial cult in Asia Minor.

Reviews

This book was a pleasure to read not only for the way in which he unpacks the essence of the book of Revelation, but also for the articulate way in which he expresses the ideas in beautiful prose. He clearly has a gift for writing. -- Andrews University Seminary Studies
"[B]y far the best contemporary defense of the Adventist position on the great controversy there. It is a must read for every pastor!" -- Kayle de Waal, Ministry -- Kayle de Waal * Ministry *
