Pastor Jeff Wheeland’s view on Revelation. The last two chapters of Revelation focus on heaven. (Please understand that godly Christian’s disagree on the interpretation of Revelation.)

Revelation 1	Revelation 2-3	Revelation 4-22
Written from the past from John’s perspective.	Written from the present from the apostle John’s perspective.	This is all future from the apostle John’s perspective.
	Written to the 7 churches in Western Turkey.	The rapture happens in Revelation 4.
		From Revelation 4-19 the church is never mentioned during the 7-year tribulation.
		In Revelation 19, Jesus comes again. This is known as the second coming of Christ. Revelation 20 is the 1000-year reign of Christ on the earth. Revelation 21-22 are the final two chapters of the Bible, and they talk about heaven.
