The Book of Revelation Unveiled ------------------------------   This is the Way... Daring to Behold! by Robin Webber Four hundred years ago on a starry evening, an Italian man looked into the lens of his telescope and beheld the glories of the universe. One by one, over the course of time, he would document his discoveries and share them with his colleagues.

Finally, the astronomer viewed four "stars" (today, we know them as moons) that always accompanied Jupiter, and with further observation, he saw that they revolved around that planet and not our own.
