This is an unabridged version of a commentary on the book of Revelation from a Reformed Orthodox and optimistic point of view. Previously I have wrestled with different Preterism and Redirectionalism views. However, once I fully understood salvation from the Reformed perspective the Lord saw fit to give me a better understanding. Concerning the eschatological perspective: We know that the Lord promised the seven churches in Revelation that He was coming to them and that the faithful churches would remain. Thus His word was fulfilled. Yet, the resurrection change of 1 Cor. 15 for the living did not happen as far as they could tell. This means that the second coming is now in the present while we wait for its completion. Therefore, we sanctify ourselves and the church for when He shall appear. When He comes He will make an end of sin, our sin nature forever, and pain and death will have an end
