Everyone wonders about what will be in their future. Our Lord Jesus Christ gave us the answer about 2000 years ago. He commanded the Apostle John to "Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later." Revelation 1:19. But what John wrote has been a mystery and difficult to decipher even for the most serious and sincere Christian. It requires unraveling many symbols, visions, and above all putting events in their proper sequence. And yet those who are willing to study and keep its message are rewarded by the Lord, "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near." Revelation 1:3.

The diligent reader of the Book is awed by Christ's person, grace, and power. As the Lamb of God, it demonstrates His desire that none should perish - leaving a powerful witness for those left behind after the rapture. As the Head of the Church, He provides both a warning to stay ready for His return, and encouragement that by His strength we can overcome all things. As the returning Messiah, He vanquishes all evil, and claims His right to rule over heaven and earth.

What's In Your Future? offers a suggested sequence that places events in chronological order, and that also groups symbols together that are reiterating and adding detail to similar events - thus reducing or eliminating repetition. This results in portions of the Book of Revelation being read "out of order." Our belief is that Revelation is a microcosm of the entire Word of God - where prophecies do not occur in a chronological sequence.

We also gather together scriptures from other parts of God's Word that confirm and add meaning and understanding to the various parts of Revelation. Finally, we have added author insights that will bring perspective and also (we trust) glorify the One and only One who is ".worthy. to receive glory and honor and power, for (He) created all things, and by (His) will they were created and have their being." Revelation 4: 11.
