Why are people drawn to the book of Revelation and confused by it? What might be the value in studying it?

Because people want to feel in control and know the future, confusion may be caused by how many bad thing will happen, but value in studying it is knowing that Jesus will come back

I believe people are drawn to the book of Revelation because we want to know what the future holds for us and this world. People are confused by the book of Revelation because it uses such powerful figurative imagery and uses it quite frequently; it takes much study and prayer to gain knowledge and understanding as to what God is revealing through the vision He gave John. The value in studying Revelation is quite high, through it we can learn what is to come and be vigilant of the times based on what the Bible tells us will happen in those days. We also learn more about God and His confrontation with sin and evil and His splendor of His plan for all saved people. Also, the visions of heaven provide such wonderful things to hope for!

Christians look at the book of Revelations and see the victory that we have in Christ Jesus. Unbelievers look at this book and see the wrath and anger that God has and displays. They do not understand that it is judgement for the evil and sin of the world and only see a God full of anger and destruction and death.
Studying this book will give us insight on how to rebuttal those views of the unbelievers. It will give us insight on what we need to do to help those that may face these judgements.

It seems many are looking for facts,sermon material, or a driving goal of disproving the book or its relevance. By seeking God as we study and pray, a deeper relationship will take us into the future that God has for us. An eternal relationship is the goal.
