The 7 Time Periods of Revelation

Revelation's prophecies parallel each other. Several of them use the number "seven" to focus on events occuring during the same 7 sequential time periods. The periods cover the Christian era, the time between John's day and the Second Coming. Just like Daniel's parallel prophecies, each helps to interpret the others. (See more about the symbolism of "Seven".)
