>>What in revelation hasn’t come to pass yet in your beliefs?<<

From Revelation 20:8 to the end of the chapter. I believe currently that Satan and his “children” are making war with the Church, world-wide (e.g., the breadth of the earth.) And I believe at God’s appointed time, Satan will be defeated; and that will precede the final judgement.

I also believe that those who do not see it are living very sheltered lives.

I am unsure about Chapter 21 and 22. There is substantial evidence they have been, at least, partly fulfilled.

the marriage supper of the lamb has occurred already in revelation 19:7 ,though,if we do things chronologically.

And if the harlot has been judged, and we know that he avenged the blood of his servants at her hand ( revelation 19:2)

Those servants dying today for worshipping him, who gets judged for that since by your timing, scripture in rev. 19 says he has already avenged the blood of his servants at her hand?

I think we can get ourselves in trouble and can be deceived by our enemy if we ‘check things’ off in Revelation, and especially revelation...

Because of God’s grace I am understanding His timekeeping He gave us in the sun, moon and stars that has been counterfeited by Satan (with man’s help )with none other than all the calculated calendars over time- including the Gregorian calendar of today...

When I understood this and started observing His calendar and timekeeping and rejected the Gregorian, I can now see how the whole world, including the church and very elect, has ‘followed after the beast’ .... today..in our world today...

And trying to explain that to people, even believers, is difficult as the Gregorian is all they ever have known and they don’t see it as just the latest tool to steal worship from our Creator.

I re-read revelation in a new light because of His blessings on my studies and the ‘mark of the beast’ versus the ‘seal of God’ was very real to me, in today’s world, not in history past..kind of turned all church doctrines on its ear for me..

For me, as long as I am still here, Revelation is still to be read and good for my teaching, my rebuking, my correcting and my training...

And best part is I have no idea what he will have me ‘unlearn’ tomorrow or the days that follow :)
