Sacred Scripture and Sacred Tradition

Additional Answer:

The one and only source of the information in the Book of Revelation can be read by all in the opening verses as follows: "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which GOD gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of GOD, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw."

So, this is God the Father giving this 'reign of man' ending information to His Son, Jesus Christ who via an angel, gives it to the Apostle John for recording.

Importance of divine revelation in relation to human experience?

Well, to begin, faith in divine revelation cannot be fully related to human experience in general. Unless of course every human being has experienced, or believes they have experienced, a situation involving divine revelation, which everyone can agree as false. If an agnostic approach is held, defined as a belief that human knowledge is limited to experience, and the perspective of human experience understood as a broad outline, to question the importance of faith in divine revelation in relation to a general view of human experience is at this point no more than a waste of curious thought. I say this because the anti-theist community claims that no religious follower KNOWS anything regarding divine or spiritual subjects, they only BELIEVE. And this possibility must be considered when speaking of divine subjects. Human experience is understood, at least through universal knowledge as well as logic, reason, and fact, as an adolescent natural occurrence, and with that, it is widely known that the human race is far from omniscient (not that we are supposed to be or even will be omniscient). If we are to relate human experience with divine revelation, we must first know and prove to ourselves, and to others, that these said revelations are credible. So in summary, faith in divine revelation in relation to human experience is of no significance when considering the various point of views that are accepted as counter possibilities that contradict the faithful. If the question was instead written as, "What is the importance of KNOWLEDGE in divine revelation in relation to human experience?" Then we would have a totally different discussion.
