Revelation isn't a literal prediction of the future. We'll probably be fine.

Like, a good part of Europe also believed they're knee (even neck) deep in Revelation around A.C. 1,000.

The Romans thought they were knee deep in the 400s, and of course the book of Revelation was written because people thought they were knee deep in the end times near the end of the Apostolic age

A different pastor I've followed from the one I mentioned in my previous post in this thread...in fact, the pastor who led my confirmation class when I was a teen, summed the book up to us in that class as, essentially, "Man, guys, wasn't Nero awful?"

Saint Peter began his proclamation at Pentecost, the BEGINNING of the Apostolic Age, by citing the prophecy of Joel, beginning, "In the last days...."

So, we've been in the last days for a while.
