as a political commentator that lived about 80 years after the death of Jesus. it was not written by the John in the bible.
the interwoven metaphor's of the revelation are actually code of the time to veil the subject from the Romans who were quick to feed dissenters to the lions.
the 'revelation' is a political Rant about the persecution of new Christian movement by the Romans.
the Prophecies you see in it are just float-sum and jetsam of your mind that bobs just below the surface...it is just turds and i flush that crap. You are just brainwashed by fear mongers and puppet masters for their own purposes.. to make money and have power and influence over others.. and they find the products of our public and private religious schools RIPE for the picking.
i grew up in the Free Holiness Pentecostal Church.. i now see them as fundamentalist extremists. I had Revelation crammed down my throat in Sunday School from the time i was five years old till i escaped on my 18th birthday... that all they taught Revelations and romans.. and maybe twice a year Acts.
as far as Prophecy in the bible of the neoFundamentalists.... I am really confused how they so blindly embrace Mysticism and burn the books of the pagans and heathens who are not even nearly so Freek'n OFF THE WALL in their mysticism which is Melina older than yours and teaches compassion, peace and cooperstion..which is why the propagandists want to destroy them. yours is a Death Cult... "Every body is going to die and burn in hell for ever at the return of the King, the Man god, except me and the other CHOSEN.. the special true believers of a really serious misconception and distortion of the truth in the face of overwhelming evidence.
I have Issues about this subject.. i was the victim of psychological emotional and physical abuse, Nothing Less than torture, for years in the church and at home concerning the church that insincerity harps on this fraud. the early fathers int the ecumenical councils over the centuries knew of the history of revelations but left it in because you never know when you might need a scary bedtime story to scare the sheep into submission. do some research on the councils of the early church ..keeping in mind the totalitarian feudal nature of the times.
i dint feel it is a good this movement is a healthy thing, it is not the teachings of the Christ.. it is a Freek'n dream...a nightmare in a period of history where LIFE was a Nightmare !! It has become a Death cult, my brothers life has been ruined because of this crap. he has lost his entire Executive retirement thru the influence of these charlatans.
Christ taught one thing the Peace that one finds through total love.
actually if you want to really understand what he was talking about read some Drama. Buddhism was being carried around the Silk Road Trade Route that went "Right thru Palestine". I never could understand how Jesus developed such a Radical Liberal Philosophy being a Jew of that time... if you know anything about Buddhism it is obvious that Jesus was influenced by the teaching of Siddhartha, which at that time were 1,500 years old and were carried abroad thru the Silk Road. apparently he didn't get a complete copy of the Dharma, if he had the world might be a very different place.
i wish you well, i hope you find a practice that makes you a more compassionate person. Remember Revelation isn't the teaching of Jesus. it does not teach peace.. it is not positive.
my favorite Quote, "A negative thought continues and increases exponentially until replaced by a positive thought, however the positive thoughts must be cultivated." HHDL
the propagandists in the chruch and in politics know this well and use it on people like you and my brother.. start worry and fear and FAN the FLAMES...make money, get power and 'things'. keep them unhappy and afraid.. but motivated by the righteous belief that they are special for believing in the thing that that makes themselves and others unhappy.. not what the Christ taught..that isn't Christian..it is the work of the devil.
