Revelation chapter 10

I get the feeling that when we read the book of Revelation,We tend to watch each scene unfold from a safe distance- I don’t think it was meant to read this way,• we’re supposed to feel a threatening closeness• we’re drawn into the dream – it’s our collective nightmare- John was certainly more than a spectator• characters approach him, converse with, and engage him◦ in this chapter he’ll be told to take and eat what he has been shown• we do not merely read the Revelation, we encounter it◦ we go on an adventure through this fantastical other-world
