It presents greater detail of the Tribulation than any other portion of Scripture. It then gives significant insight into the millennial reign of Christ and of the eternal kingdom to follow. The book looks forward from John’s day on into eternity. The book might be outlined accordingly. I. Introduction - chapter 1. II. The seven messages to the seven churches of Asia - chapters 2-3. III. Things hereafter - chapters 4-22. The prophetic portion of the book presents a general narrative account of the Tribulation and events following thereafter.
