About Revelation, A Video Study:
Those who study the book of Revelation usually view it from one of several positions regarding a time of tribulation, the rapture of the church, and the thousand-year reign of Christ on earth. Some have used Revelation to pinpoint present and future events ranging from the identity of the Antichrist to the exact date and hour of Christ's return. What can we know about the book of Revelation? What should we make of its visions of apocalyptic horsemen, horns with faces, flying angels, and fantastic beasts? More important, what meaning does it hold for us here and now, and how can we apply it to our lives?
Revelation, A Video Study features top New Testament scholar Craig S. Keener teaching through the book of Revelation in 22 engaging and challenging lessons. Based on Keener's Revelation commentary in the NIV Application Commentary series, these lessons explore the links between the Bible's final book and how we should live our lives today. With honesty and scholarly insight, each session shows how Revelation strengthens our hope in the future while enabling us to live out our Christian faith wisely in the present.

Watch "Who Changed the Sabbath" by CD Brooks
Where did he get the lion and the lamb lying down together? It's lamb and wolf.
Post-Millenium-Rapture not included in any of your paradigms. Rapture in Rev 20:13-14.
the wolf and the lamb. where does the scripture ever say the Lion and the lamb?
Slanie Jode I think you may be thinking about Isaiah 11:6. It doesn’t say exactly what you asked but it’s the closest
Be nice, especially to those who do not understand that the Book of Revelation is full of symbols, which is not in chronological order.
The Second Coming is found at the end of chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are in the Olivet Discourse. Why are those at the end of the chapter hiding from the wrath of the Lamb, unless the Lamb is present during that time?
It is found in the 7th trumpet, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18.
The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth, and death of Christ.
The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares.
It is found when He comes as a thief at Armageddon, in Revelation 16:15-16.
It is found in chapter 19.
It is found at the end of chapter 20, when the fire comes, (See 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Peter 3:10-13.) and with the judgment of the dead. (Also found in Revelation 11:18)
Why deny that chapter 20 is full of symbols?
Is Satan bound with a steel chain, like one from the hardware store?
Is the key made of brass, like the key for your home?
Is the 1,000 years literal, or is it symbolic of the Church age?
You wrote "The Second Coming is found at the end of chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are in the Olivet Discourse. Why are those at the end of the chapter hiding from the wrath of the Lamb, unless the Lamb is present during that time?". This is an all-too-common misunderstanding of the Seals. The Seals let anyone who have read the Prophets know that the tribulation ahead will use the exact same methods that God used in the OT. He will "raise up" a strong leader (1st Rider), there will be war, famine, disease and all manner of death (Riders 2, 3 and 4). Seal 5 gives us the righteous dead (Like a remnant) who have "overcome" which is the same admonition to all 7 of the Churches. Seal 6 is what will be the conclusion promised and seen in places like Isaiah 63. Nobody I've ever read has a clue about Seal 7... Silence for half an hour? But the thing to remember is that Seals 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 have durations that last the entire tribulation as apposed to Trumpet 5 which lasts 5 months. The scroll of seals is "The Master Plan" and the Trumpets and Vials are how the end is brought about.

A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming?
The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29.
Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19.
Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?
Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time.
Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth.
Amillennialists. The early Church fathers are not infallible.
I've been reading some of the early Church fathers. Paul was right... the mystery of iniquity was already at work.
He returns in the cloud above, reigning. Took out the principalities and powers above.
Day of the Lord, Jerusalem 70AD, end of the age (Levitical age) beginning of the new covenant (messianic age, 70ad)
The reign is in heaven, the church took power and ruled over the nation's with a rod of iron, now I believe we are in post Rev20:7, the final rebellion before the great white throne judgement.
