Revelation - Four Views (Part 2)
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In this presentation, Steve Gregg explores four main views on the book of Revelation: historicist, preterist, futuristic, and idealist. While the futurist view is centered on predicting the future, the historicist view considers the book as a prophecy of the progression of history based on symbolic elements. The preterist view, on the other hand, sees the book as a prophecy that has already been fulfilled in past events like the fall of Jerusalem in AD 70. Lastly, the idealist view emphasizes the symbolic depiction of Christian truths in a dramatic way without focusing on specific events or history. Regardless of one's interpretation of the book of Revelation, Gregg emphasizes the importance of knowing and following Jesus and understanding the practical teachings of the Sermon on the Mount.
