Why this project

Chronicles the depths that John suffered when exiled by the Romans to Patmos and just what could have led to the visions penned in Revelations. This is the story about the man that closed the Bible with the final book: Revelations. How does a man do that? What type of man is that? What would the world be like if the book had not ben written? This is an exploration about a man whose identify on the penal colony of Patmos is stripped until only interpretation remains.
