Jim - You and me both! I am embarrassed to admit that I have never truly studied or truly read through Revelations in depth. I think my brain goes "WELL THAT'S A LOT TO HANDLE". Add in the word apocalypse and yikes - but this study was eye opening to me also.
I think what I struggle with when it comes to the boundaries of scriptures and even using trusted commentaries - is when commentaries start disagreeing with each other. One thing I've always struggled to navigate is the question of 'if theologians can't even agree on the correct interpretation than how am I supposed to 100% say something is truth?" It's an ongoing battle in my head.
