IDEALISM: Perfect Idealism Defined Within The Already But Not Yet

Book excerpt: This commentary on the book of Revelation is from a Reformed Orthodox Idealistic and Futuristic point of view. Previously I have wrestled with different Preterism and Redirectionalism views. However, once I fully understood salvation from the Reformed perspective the Lord saw fit to give me better understanding of the book of Revelation and Eschatology. Previously I was under the belief of OSAS Charles Stanley heresy. Concerning the eschatological perspective: We know that the Lord promised the seven churches in Revelation that He was coming to them, and that the faithful churches would remain. Thus His word was fulfilled. Yet, the resurrection change of 1 Cor. 15 for the living did not happen as far as they could tell. This means that the second coming is now in the present idealistically while we wait. Therefore, we sanctify ourselves and the church for when He shall appear. When He comes He will make an end of sin, our sin nature forever, and pain and death will end
