Revealing Earth's Eternal King

By Sue Watkins

Revealing Earth's Eternal King is a commentary and study of the Book of Revelation. Considering Revelation a literary masterpiece, Sue Watkins connects Old Testament themes-particularly those from Genesis and Exodus-to the New Testament, declaring that they are all fulfilled by Jesus Christ. Ms. Watkins studies the Book of Revelation as a summary of the Bible's narrative, viewing Revelation's mosaic-like structure as a cohesive portrait of Christ. Rather than predicting the end times, she believes John wrote to offer spiritual enlightenment over linear interpretation by utilizing the apocalyptic genre rooted in the depth of his Jewish heritage. Thus, John reveals Jesus' identity and victory over chaos, restoring God's original orderly intent for creation.
Drawing from scholars like N.T. Wright, G.K. Beale, and Michael Heiser, Ms. Watkins connect John's imagery-such as the beasts, the harlot, and the dragon-to Old Testament motifs, portraying a cosmic battle already won by Christ's death, resurrection, and ascension.
Furthermore, Ms. Watkins contends that John crafted his letter to the 1st-century churches of Asia Minor to inspire perseverance amid persecution and heresy, urging them to proclaim Jesus as King and overcome adversity through faith. Rejecting the modern theological interpretation of Revelation as the fore-telling of a future seven-year tribulation or a singular antichrist, Ms. Watkins views Revelation as more; it is a call to repentance and to think differently. She reflects that John urged his audience to navigate through persecution and Jewish rejection like Jesus established God's Kingdom- through humility and love.
