The Christian Optimist

Revelation Explained—The Reason for my Optimism

Raef Chenery Season 3 Episode 14

Revelation is possibly the most questioned and misunderstood book in the entire Bible. In this episode, I try to walk you through the major ways to interpret Revelation. Ultimately, I challenge some of the more popular Futurist views of modern interpreters, and try to demonstrate why most scholars, theologians, and Reformers throughout history held to the Preterist view of Revelation. I'll then demonstrate why I hold to a view of Eschatology that I refer to as 'Optimistic Amillennialism.'  Also known as 'Modern Postmillennialism.' This is the last episode of Season 3 before I head out on a Sabbatical with my family.
