Transcripts of tapes on Revelation by Malcolm Smith

Back in 1985 I first listened to a set of tapes on Revelation by Malcolm Smith, these made Revelation understandable to me, and were the inspiration for my commentary and eventually this website. I always think that God speaks better to us by 'hearing' rather than just 'reading'. To hear the words of Malcolm Smith you can buy the tapes at his own website. They are suitable for group study. It is my pleasure to commend these transcripts to you.

Audio Sermons on Revelation by Arturo G Azurdia III highly recommended for private study, there are 81 of them.
