Is there any indication in Revelation that John has two thousand years of church history in mind?
David92198
It needs to be understood that John "had nothing in mind" when he recorded "Revelation," other than to "write down what he saw in the vision" sent to him by Jesus Christ [whose Revelation it is].
"The Revelation of Jesus Christ... to shew unto His servants things which must shortly come to pass... He sent and signified it by His angel unto John: who bare record of the Word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all the things that he saw." (Rev.1:1-2)
None of The Revelation was of "John's intent or purpose" AT ALL, much less, to direct or indicate anything contained in the vision sent to him.
