    I think it draws attention because we are all curious about the future. It can be confusing because of the word pictures it uses to describe things, and the many different people/things that are in it. It is valuable because it does show us a picture of God’s plan for the future and how he will bring us all back to himself in the end.

    People are drawn to the book of Revelation because they want a clear cut map of what the future holds. They are confused by the fact that Revelation is not clear and filled with pages of symbolism that can difficult to decipher the meaning. It is valuable to study Revelation because it provides hope for believers. Even if the events are difficult to decipher, it still shows God gaining the final victory and eradicating death.

    The way revelation was written is not clear; it is for interpretation, which is why it is confusing. People are always intrigued about the future. It is important to read to know what is to come, the signs of the end, and to be prepared as a church.

    People are drawn to Revelation because people fear the unknown. It is confusing because many of the descriptions are beyond our understanding, and even John’s ability to explain it. It doesn’t give us exact timelines either. It is valuable to study because, for believers, it offers even more hope for eternity and the ability to endure in this life, and hopefully inspire us to be bolder in sharing the Gospel so our loved ones do not have to endure the wrath mention in this book.

    People like to know the future, to know what’s going to happen. People are drawn to Revelation because they want to know what is going to happen and compare it to events of today.
