The '''Book of Revelation''' (formal title '''The Revelation of St. John the Divine''', also called '''The Revelation to John''', '''The Apocalypse of John''', or simply '''Revelation''') is the final book of the [[Christian]] [[Bible]] (The [[New Testament]]). It records a series of visions received by the [[John the Divine]] while he was imprisoned on the island of Patmos.  In ancient writings as going back as early as [[Justin Martyr]], it was held that John the divine was [[John the Apostle]].<ref>The NIV Study Bible, Zondervan Press, 1985, Pg. 1923</ref> The visions describe the end times and the second coming of [[Jesus Christ]]. ([[Preterists]] disagree, believing the book describing events fulfilled at other points in history.)
