Some will say the 7 years and the 1000 years are future event. Others see it as between the first coming of Christ and his second coming, meaning no future 1000years.

Some would put the 7 seals, 7 trumpets, 7 bowls as 3 different waves, others would combine all 3 as 3 different view angle of the same events that all lead to the second coming of Christ, and started since the first coming of Christ.


The list goes on.... How many different main views are there?

I only studied 2 different versions, but I know there are a few more.

I am not saying any of those views here are right or wrong, but it is interesting how many interpretation there are.

the views of revelation will be as many as those who read it. anyone who even dare to understand the book is bold. all of the different expressions of revelation are to be considered, but this bible verse should always be considered when dealing with revelations I think.

1 Corinthians 13:12
for now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
