Down through the ages deep thinkers have spent countless hours contemplating the origin of life. The beginning of life is a mystery.

Well, the same could be said of our future. Historians have studied the past.

philosophers have examined our times, but the future is a complete mystery.

Today on Insight for Living, Chuck Swindall reminds us that the Book of Revelation gives us a glimpse into the future.

has paid the price for their sins in full.
