“esied that two-thirds of Israel in the land will perish, ‘ ‘In the whole” (Page 332)

“nations is His’ (v. 10). This was fulfilled in Christ” (Page 31)

“Because none of the preceding approaches has achieved any recognized consensus, many conservative scholars have turned to the futuristic approach, viewing the book as prophecy of the future, especially beginning in Revelation 4. Under this interpretation Revelation 4–18 deals with events that are yet future; Revelation 19 deals with a literal Second Coming; Revelation 20 deals with a future thousand-year reign of Christ on earth; and Revelation 21–22 is considered a description of the eternal state.” (Page 520)

“This passage is a part of the predictions of the great world conflict which will characterize the years just before the Second Coming.” (Page 188)

“One of the most important questions in the interpretation of prophecy is whether a prophecy is literal or figurative.” (Page 14)
