Luke21 - Catholic Biblical Prophecy

In this episode, Steve Wood explores how an overlooked theologian, Tyconius, radically shaped Christian understanding of the Book of Revelation. Highlighted by Pope Benedict XVI in 2009, Tyconius’ insights influenced St. Augustine’s view of the Antichrist, the Church’s twofold nature, and the mystery of evil in the end times. Learn why Revelation was written to the Church, how spiritual darkness from Revelation 9 still applies today, and what this means for believers facing both growth and corruption in the Church.
