INTRODUCTION:
In grammar, a future tense (abbreviated fut) is a verb form that generally marks the event described by the verb as not having happened yet, but expected to happen in the future. An example of a future tense form is the French aimera, meaning "will love", derived from the verb aimer ("love"). English does not have a future tense formed by verb inflection in this way, although it has a number of ways to express the future, particularly the construction with the auxiliary verb will orshall or is/am/are going to and grammarians differ in whether they describe such constructions as representing a future tense in English.
The "future" expressed by the future tense usually means the future relative to the moment of speaking, although in contexts where relative tense is used it may mean the future relative to some other point in time under consideration. Future tense can be denoted by the glossing abbreviation fut.

FUTURE TENSE: ‘The use of the future tense indicates that blessedness includes future benefits that overcome the misfortunes of the present.
‘Although the bulk of the verbs in the chapter are not cast in the future tense, the entire outlook of the subject is future-oriented.’
‘The diamond heist that is the nucleus of Reservoir Dogs is absent from the actual movie, existing only in reference, as a reflection in either past or future tense.’
