Revelation Through History

Jesus Christ did more than we give Him credit for. In fact, we have robbed Him of some of the glory He deserves. Just as Orthodox Jews still project the Messiah’s first coming into the future, so do many of today’s Christians who believe the Messiah’s second coming is still in the future. We are waiting on Him to arrive and be the avenging hero of our souls, while He’s waiting on us to recognize He’s accomplished it already. 


The book of Revelation is a detailed, prophetic explanation of how the Kingdom proclaimed by God’s ancient prophets came about. It described the end of the Old and the beginning of the everlasting New. But it’s difficult for us to understand how Jesus fully initiated AND finalized the setting up of this Kingdom if we aren’t familiar with more events of our history. Once we acknowledge these historical facts, it’ll be easier to see how the prophecies of Revelation have already been fulfilled – and why they won’t ever be repeated.
