What exactly was Levin's revelation near the end of the novel? I don't understand what turned him from pretty much an atheist to a devout Christian who saw absolutely no flaws in Christianity or the Christian Church which he doubted before.

No.
There was a situation when he talked with some peasant about another peasant and that peasant said about other peasant:He lives for soul, not for his body. That quote made a huge impact on Levin; it's somewhere near the end of a novel.
At thunder and tempest, At the world's coldheartedness,
During times of heavy loss And when you're sad
The greatest art on earth Is to seem uncomplicatedly gay.
To get things clear, they have to firstly be very unclear. But if you get them too quickly, you probably got them wrong.

Yes, I do remember that. Maybe I need to re-read those parts over again.
Great book. Levin's revelation imo, is more of an acceptance of his own faulty persona. Near the end he states, that he will never be close to his brother like he was with his other brother, will always argue when expressing opinions contrary to his own, and will continue to be the same guy despite what people want him to be with the exception that he has now found comfort in knowing through the belief of a transcendental feeling, not necessarily in God but all that encompasses God and mysteries of life, that everything must be dealt with naturally. And that finally gave him peace of mind, whereas earlier in the story Levin was confused where his life was leading.
