The End - The Wayfarer's Guide To The Apocalypse

In a world of doom, gloom and apocalyptic warnings, there were two narratives about the end being near. The first saturated the news media and spoke death. Uttering shrill warnings of climate change it offered a curse; "To save the planet, you must give up your lifestyle."

The other, from the final book of the Bible spoke of strange and frightening things to come, but a blessing is promised; "Blessed are you who read, hear and keep the words of this prophecy; for the time is near."

Wayfarer wanted the truth.

Travelling life's highways and by-ways, she came to realise a detour must be taken. Which narrative could she trust? Which road should she choose? The road with the curse, or the road with the blessing?

She made the decision to venture into the mysterious Book of Revelation, a book she'd been wary of since the age of 13.

To find her way, and fulfil the conditions of the blessing, she sought Wisdom.

The rooms in Wisdom's house contained all precious and pleasant riches. At first, many doors were closed but Abba, the father of the house, gave her a key.

Taught by Wisdom and Abba, Wayfarer learned to "let the Word interpret the Word, line by line, precept by precept." There were lots of Bible verses. Aided by those in Wisdom's house, Wayfarer put them together like a puzzle. She obtained wise counsel, to understand a proverb and an enigma from the words of the wise and their riddles.

As she travelled through the cataclysmic, world changing events of the Apocalypse, Wayfarer's eyes were opened to great and marvellous things. Witnessing the Kingdom, the power and the glory, she was indeed blessed by this mysterious, enigmatic book that has kept its secrets for over two millennia.
