Hi everyone! I usually post these on Wednesdays but in the holiday rush I haven't had much time so either film a video or write a new blog. So I decided to just make the last Why the New Testament Was Written video as a substitute for my usual Saturday blogs.

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This week's concluding video is on why Revelation was written. Rather than delve into the divisive theological issues of eschatology, I decided to focus solely on the historical context of John's vision and the book's authorship.

Why John Wrote Revelation

Video clocks in at 16:28.

Thank you all so much for joining me for this series! I can't believe I made 18 of these!

As you can imagine, researching, filming, uploading and posting takes an extraordinary amount of work. So I'll be taking a nice long break from any more YouTube series. However, at some point in the future, maybe later this year, I want to do a similar series on the minor prophets. We'll see.

Thanks, Phil, for putting together this series. This is an excellent conclusion to your studies on the historical backgrounds of the New Testament books. I’ve learned a lot from watching them. Looking forward to hearing more in the future.
