"Write the things which thou has seen, (past)
and the things which are, (present)
and the things which shall be hereafter. (future)
Revelation 1:19

John had seen Jesus' ministry......past
The things now happening around him.....present
The Church age, things to come, the Great
Tribulation, and the New Heavens and New
Earth.....future.

God wanted John to reveal Jesus personally,
as a High Priest, as a Judge and as a King.

It is not just a book for predictions of the
end times or of the end of the ungodly.
