On 01/14/21, I published my Revelation Timeline Decoded book.
Messiah’s apocalyptic vision is a war manual, that uses symbols and layers to hide the fulfillment. Old Testament symbols point to a literal fulfillment. If you read Revelation only from a literal perspective, the interpretation is hidden. It has four chronological layers, each of which spans from when it was written until Messiah returns.
This book explains the prophecies of Revelation on a timeline to help you see how the four chronological layers interact with each other, so that you can comprehend the whole vision.

This Revelation Timeline Decoded Bible study lists the Revelation Verse Studies.
These overview studies help you understand the apocalyptic vision.
The first key to understanding the fulfillment of Revelation is to see that it’s written from John’s perspective, so that we have a reference when it comes to the ‘great city,’ the eight kings of Revelation 17, etc. Read Revelation Is From John’s Perspective
Messiah used symbols that are defined in the Old Testament, to point to a literal historical fulfillment.

Daniel’s End Times Beast
Daniel 2 and 7 describes four beast kingdoms; Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome. The fourth beast kingdom of Rome stays in power until Messiah returns to destroy it. John picks up the narrative of the Roman beast in Revelation.
Read The Beasts Of Daniel 2 and Daniel 7
The apocalyptic vision is written in a way that hides the message from those who shouldn’t understand it.
Revelation 1-22 is not one chronological narrative. It has four chronological narratives, all of which span from the first century until Messiah returns. When you overlay the narratives on top of each other, then you see the complete vision.

Revelation Layer One
In the first chronological layer of Revelation, John gives overviews of the three different phases of the Roman beast kingdom, which Satan uses to fight against Messiah and His saints.
Read The Phases Of The Roman Beast
The pagan Roman Emperors ruled the Roman beast kingdom until 476 AD. This was the ‘deadly head wound’ as the office ceased to exist.
Read Revelation 12 – The Roman Empire Beast Phase
The antichrist beast Popes rose to power over the ten civil kingdoms of the fallen Roman Empire, and ruled for 1,260 years from 538-1798 AD. They took to the Emperors title of Pontifex Maximus, leader of church and state, healing the deadly head wound.

The false prophet Jesuit Superior General rose to power out of the land (earth) of the Vatican, and has controlled the Roman beast kingdom since 1798 AD. When the White Pope was removed from power, he was wounded by the sword, but his office continued to exist (live).
The Black Pope controls the world through many front organizations, while hiding his power under the guise of a priest of Messiah.

Revelation Layer Two
In the second chronological layer of Revelation, John describes seven church eras which span from the first century until Messiah returns. You can see how the church eras match up with the phase of the Roman beast kingdom. We are in the last church age of Laodicea.
Read Revelation 2-3 Seven Church Eras
Read The Hour Of Temptation In Revelation 3:10 – NEW!
Revelation Layer Three
In the third chronological layer of Revelation, John gives the narrative of the seals, trumpets, bowls, the little book and the two witnesses; so that you can see how they match up with the phase of the Roman beast kingdom, and how they line up with seven church eras.
I also added the little horn of Daniel 7, the son of perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2, and the iron-clay feet of Daniel 2; so that you can see how they were fulfilled chronologically.
The bowl judgments were against the pagan Roman Empire, as Satan used the Emperors to persecute the saints, killing millions.
Revelation 6 – 7 Seals Overview
- Revelation 6 – 1st Seal White Horse
- Revelation 6 – 2nd Seal Red Horse
- Revelation 6 – 3rd Seal Black Horse

- Revelation 6 – 6th Seal Earthquake
Revelation 7 – Sealing of the 144,000
Revelation 8 – 7th Seal Silence
Satan found out that Messiah’s church grows the most under persecution, so he caused Emperor Constantine to end the persecutions, to seek to destroy Messiah’s church from within, by creating the Roman Catholic Church. This led to a falling away from the true Scriptural faith.
Read The Falling Away of 2 Thessalonians 2
The Trumpet Judgments are against the pagan Roman Empire, which Satan used to persecute the saints. The trumpets represent army after army being sent against the Roman kingdom.
- Revelation 8 – 1st Trumpet
- Revelation 8 – 2nd Trumpet
- Revelation 8 – 3rd Trumpet
- Revelation 8 – 4th Trumpet
Daniel and Paul pointed to the Popes rising to power over the fallen Roman Empire.
The Roman beast kingdom (iron) has used the Muslim kingdom (clay) to carry out its agenda.
Read The Iron/Clay Feet Of Daniel 2
Trumpet judgments continued against the pagan Roman Empire, as the Muslim and Turkish armies were sent to desolate apostate Christians.
The era of the Protestant Reformation was an epic time in the history of Messiah’s church.
The printed Bible was needed after the antichrist beast Popes banned and burned the Scriptures during the Dark Ages.
Read Revelation 10 – The Little Book
Martin Luther compared what the Pope teaches against Scripture, and determined that the Roman Catholic Church is an apostate church, and not part of Messiah’s temple of believers.
Read Revelation 11 – Measuring The Temple
The Scriptures and the Saints both testified against the antichrist beast Popes during their reign of power. By 1514 AD, the Popes considered the two witnesses as good as dead. And then exactly 3 1/2 years later, Martin Luther posted his 95 Thesis that sparked the Protestant Reformation, which brought the two witnesses back to life.

Hey David been a while since posted or asked anything but i am wrestling with…
the great city being divided into 3 parts as being the city state corporations and or the timing of the 7th bowl.
It seems in the verse that the dividing takes place after the pouring of the 7th bowl which seems yet future or could it be that the pouring out of the 7th took place in the past.
Any insights?
Hey Lance, I just posted a video about the 7th vial judgment. https://youtu.be/ksmu9xOhRa4

I have read most of your info and I am convinced, “but” I am having a difficult time understanding why John would write events to come, if the destruction of Jesusalm had already occurred. What point am I missing about this? I grow weary trying to come to terms, pardon me if I am still blind; perhaps you can briefly give me a clue.
Gail, the events that John wrote about take place from the first century until Messiah returns. He foretold the events so that people can look to see what’s already been fulfilled, to know where we’re at on the Revelation fulfillment timeline. Here’s a link to a summary of the timeline. The book and videos explain it in detail. https://revelationtimelinedecoded.com/revelation-fulfillment-timeline-summary/
God is in control of this mess that Satan created. The question – is God going to keep his promise he made to himself.
Isaiah 45:23-24
By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance.’ “Only in the Lord, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.
Isaiah 55:11
So shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
Philippians 2:9-11
Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Romans 5:18 [a]Likewise then, as by the offense of one, the fault came on all men to condemnation, so by the justifying of one, the benefit abounded toward all men to the [b]justification of life.
“For as through the one man’s disobedience the many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.” Romans 5:19
“For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive.” 1 Corinthians 15:22
John 6
39 And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every man which [s]seeth the Son, and believeth in him, should have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
“For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers.” 1 Timothy 4:10
“For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.” Colossians 1:19-20
You and I both know that the feasts of the Lord are about the advents of the Messiah, but every one hardly ever talks about the Jubilee. The third manifestation of the Sabbath concept is seven times seven years, or 49 years total. Every 49 years marks what is called “The Jubilee.” It is a year of release in which all debts are canceled. All men go free and return to their inheritance.
In a Sabbatic Year, there is only remission of debts. It’s like hitting the “Pause” button. After the Sabbatic Year is over, the debtor must continue to make payments against his debt.
A Jubilee Year is different because it’s a year in which all debts are canceled. It makes no difference how much a man owes. Every last penny of debt is forgiven, and he starts afresh during the new Jubilee cycle.
Here is another thing that people don’t talk about in Revelations – the 7 thunders of God. Enoch knew the mysteries of the thunders of God, they were blessings and curses.
Also from Adam to the Law was grace, from the Law to the Messiah was judgement, Messiah to his second coming is grace, at his second coming is judgement again, Will he finish with grace?
Will he save all mankind who had no say in being born with a sin nature.
Remember Thomas, he refused to believe until he could see Jesus and touch his side and nail holes of Jesus. If Jesus is going to destroy death and Hades and throw them into lake of fire. Where are all the sinners going to be. Why are the ones under the earth going to bow down to a God that is going to turn around and destroy them.
For the Lord to have his wedding feast the Lord’s supper he needs his barley and wheat for the bread and his grapes for the wine. There are 3 harvest of souls barley, wheat and wine each one is harvest in a different way
Since the Harlot has convince so many people to believe in a pre rapture of a church what other things has she done. Has she also corrupted the scriptures – because God gave a warning not to add or take away from his Word. So he must of know it would be done.
Is Messiah going to lose some when the scriptures say he will lose nothing?
Tom Friess (Inquisition Update – Iowa/USA) and Jorg Glissman (Hour of the Truth – Belgium/Germany) have presented so much truth in their online videos about the Papacy and its Biblical, historical and prophetic role in the world. They taught me a lot before I discovered your ministry.
With that being said, in their most recent broadcast (this week), Jorg said they [he and Tom] plant to bring in a 3rd party onto their program to explain that we are NOW living in the 1,260 years reign of the Popes of Rome. This didn’t set well with me only because it really doesn’t make sense after reading your books and studying history. They are discussing Daniel and 2 Thessalonians in this regard.
According to your timeline and historical analysis, you say that Daniel and John described the Popes of Rome, who reigned for 1,260 years, from 538-1798 A.D., from 538-1798 A.D. However, Jorg and Tom are saying that we are living in the 1,260 years right now. What do you suppose they are trying to say or teach in this regard? Any thoughts?
I know when I reached out to Jorg many months ago to try to get him to get you (all my doing) on their broadcast Jorg said he had read one of your books and thought it was good and agreed with most of it but that he was unsure of where you were coming from and unsure of your your sources or references – something like that.
I never understood this because your books line up so well with Scripture and history and what they are teaching for the most part. As a side note, they are both devout Saturday Sabbath keepers like the SDA’s although they are NOT SDA’s from what they claim.
The problem with Jorg (not so much Tom) is that he refuses to have a discussion if you disagree with him or even inquire about what he means by something. I was sad to see that for the first time Jorg turned off the comments to his latest broadcast with Tom. I have commented a handful of times in the last year or so but stopped way before this week’s broadcast because the only thing Jorg will respond to is accolades not genuine inquiries. Some people are not trolls. They really do want to know the truth but Jorg can make you feel like really small if he doesn’t like your questions or genuine opinions.
I really like their broadcasts but it’s becoming harder and harder to listen to Jorg (not Tom) because Jorg can be very abrasive and rude in his comments as well as his listening audience.
Overall, they speak truth for which I am very thankful. I was curious if you had any thoughts as to the 1,260 years we are supposed to be living in. Thanks.
ACM, I’ve not listened to Tom Friess and Jorg Glissman much, so I can’t say why they think that we’re in the 1260 years. I don’t know their historical timeline of what prophecies have been fulfilled.
It’s sad when someone is so intolerant of others asking questions or expressing another explanation. And it’s telling when they turn off comments.
Keep pressing on for the glory of our King!
David
I think preterists believe that the resurrection already occurred, I believe in Matthew 27. Do you have any input into why this is not true? I think they also believe Christ came came back in AD 70? Trying to get all this clear. I am definitely convinced that the historicist doctrine is correct and really want to get it all before I talk to friends and others.
Gary, the historicist narrative of prophecy fulfillment invalidates the preterist view, so we don’t have to explain why Messiah didn’t return in 70 AD. We can see that we’re in the sixth vial and a few prophecies remain to be fulfilled before Messiah returns.
