Understanding the Book of Revelation for the first time—as John the Apostle Intended It

HOUSTON - July 2, 2013 - PRLog -- Not satisfied with the traditional Christian understanding of the New Testament book of Revelation and End Times prophecies as taught in churches today?  Looking for fresh insight into such questions as “Who is the Antichrist?” “When will the Rapture take place?”  “What will happen during the Great Tribulation and the Thousand-year Reign of Christ?”

In his latest book The Cup of The Harlot, Bob Morley uses Scripture, archaeological findings (the Ras Shamra Tablets) that explain many Old Testament idiomatic expressions and reveal the true meaning of Biblical texts, and the writings of the early Church fathers – handed down orally by the Apostle himself – to bring new eye-opening inspiration to ancient yet relevant texts.

“Much of what was in that Apostolic Oral Teaching (John’s post-Revelation teachings as told to his student Polycarp), that was such a gigantic key to understanding not only the end times but also much of the Old Testament, had to do with the idioms Moses used in his writing of the first five books of the Bible,” author Bob Morley says in The Cup of The Harlot.  In his latest book, Morley unlocks the secrets to John’s teachings – captured through the written works of Irenaeus and Hippolytus – in language that the modern reader will understand.

In 37 chapters, Morley dissects End Times teachings from the New Testament book of Revelation and the Old Testament book of Daniel, along with other Old Testament prophets, to paint a picture that is as intriguing and satisfying as it is complete.  For within the pages of The Cup of The Harlot, readers will find provocative yet common sense wisdom about mysterious End Times topics that continue to fascinate people today: the Antichrist, the Mark of the Beast, the number 666, the famed harlot sitting on the beast, cup in hand, the woman and the dragon, the fate of the Jews, the millennial reign of Christ, and much more.

Morley also reveals a significant teaching about the Nephilim (giants) first written about in Genesis, their connection to the historic Tower of Babel, and their role in End Times events.

Also included in Morley’s The Cup of The Harlot is a discussion of the seven church eras represented by the seven churches addressed in Revelation chapters 2 and 3, and a definitive explanation about the Age of Apostasy that today’s Church (represented by the church at Laodicea) entered in ~1900.  Not only is today’s Church blinded by the prevalent concept of “cheap grace,” but wrong theology about the End Times, inspired by the teachings of John Nelson Darby (1800-1882), has helped to create an era of lackadaisical Christians who are asleep when they should have their lamps burning brightly, awaiting the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

The Cup of The Harlot is Bob Morley’s fourth book.  His other titles are: Unlocking God’s Secrets (2009), Musings from Me and My Master (2010), and Wonder No More (2011).
