The Book of Revelation is the most debated book in the entire Bible — but which of its five major interpretations best fits what the text actually says? Jimmy Akin and Dom Bettinelli rank futurism, historicism, idealism, preterism, and pantalism on a tier list, breaking down the evidence for and against each view.

From the dispensationalist rapture theology behind Left Behind to the scholarly case for preterism, Jimmy examines what "soon" really means in Revelation's own words — and introduces another interpretation that may be superior to the others.
