So lets start here, any honest person that studies history will agree Revelations was written BEFORE 70 A.D as he was in persecution under Nero (who hated Christians) So what does this book start out with? The test of a true prophet is whether or not what he says comes to pass.

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: <-- Wait, so you want me to believe we are still waiting 2000 years now?

2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. <-- I believe him, do you? Or are you still waiting?

4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; <-- Those are real, historic churches of his day, not yours or mine.

5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. <-- So just as Christ told them in the Gospels, some of them would STILL BE ALIVE when he came back in judgement..

That's a good start, but you will over look the OBVIOUS and attempt to focus on the less clear, less clear to you because you can't accept what it actually says through the scriptures.
