And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophesy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which is described in this book.

      Why should a layman be more able to understand revelation than learned students and leaders in the Christian Church today? Mainly because he is not persuaded by others before him, and because of everything in the world, common sense has been replaced by learning.
