Book Of Revelation was wrote through Apostle John on the Island of Patmos between 81- 96 A.D. by a vision from Lord Jesus to Apostle John , During the persecution of Christians by the Roman Emperor Domitian... this is a common Knowledge from most Biblical historical accounts......But Apostle Paul was martyred through Roman Emperor Nero who was a tyrant against Christians, All Jesus Could do in these days was convert people and rise them from the dead for a witness and collect them at their marytred deaths , not a pleasant time for Believers in Jesus ....

Hello hljc,

You have brought up informatin that is under heavy debate at this time amongst many scholars. The source, or be it that, the only source from where this information is derived from, is highly contested as mistranlsated to further the plight of dispensationlism. Unfortunately, for those that adhere to this source as truth in translatory evidence, are incorrect. The subject matter in question is not that the Apocalypse was seen, but rather John was seen, towards the end of Domitian's reign. There is plenty of evidence in favor of its authorship for a pre-70 A.D. including Biblical, as opposed to the singular piece of evidence from Irenaeus that was poorly translated. God bles you.
