Rev 1: God blesses the one who reads this prophecy to the church, and he blesses all who listen to it and obey what it says. For the time is near when these things will happen.

There is nothing in that verse that applies to the Left Behind series. By all means read St John's Revelation, but there's no need to cross-reference it with any other books except the Old Testament where prophetic symbolism is first used and intrepreted by prophets.

I did not say that.

You said that Revelation was written in "the language of scholars" and I said that God offers a special blessing to ANYONE who reads Revelation. This is because God wants regular ol' people to READ Revelation, because it is imperative they KNOW what is in the book.

It's the ONLY book in the entire Bible that comes with promise of a special blessing to those who will read and STUDY it. It's THAT important to God.
