A symbolic prophecy fulfilled in 70 A.D.—not a prediction of future global events.
What is
Book of Revelation
TGNN teaches that the Book of Revelation is a symbolic prophecy about events leading up to 70 A.D.—not a prediction of the distant future. It describes the end of the old covenant age and God's judgment on Jerusalem.
ExplanationWhile often treated as a cryptic forecast of modern events, the Book of Revelation was written to first-century believers facing imminent persecution and upheaval. TGNN interprets it through a fulfilled (preterist) lens: it describes the fall of Jerusalem, the judgment of old covenant Israel, and the transition to the age of the Spirit.Symbols like beasts, Babylon, and the lake of fire represent political, religious, and covenantal realities of that time—not global future disasters. Revelation is not a roadmap to the end of the world but a spiritual unveiling (apokalypsis) of how God fulfilled His promises.Understanding Revelation in this way brings peace, not panic—and reaffirms that we now live in a completed, spiritually liberated age.
