The Book of Revelation can often be perceived as the most confusing book in the bible. It is and has been a source of division within Christian ranks and many "isms" have developed due to conflicting views. Postmillennialism, Premillennialism, Amillennialism, Pretribulationalism, Posttribulationalism. Most of these would score pretty well on a Scrabble board, but don't detract from the
