    Who is the Babylon of Revelation? (part 1)

    Are you saying that you think this was history and not obvious prophecy?

    The Sweet and bitter little book of Revelation 10

    You are pointing nothing out because the helicopters and the "animal vitality" were completely different topics and had zero relationship to each other.

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Will armies be gathered to attack Jerusalem and Israel at the end of the 70th week? Yes, but only because that is where the a/c is. They are going to battle against him because, as I think you stated earlier, that will be his headquarters. But, when they see the Lord coming, they will turn their...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    For a long time that is what I thought as well but with a little study we find it is just the same warning repeated that those who live their life as sinners will not be allowed into the kingdom of God. See 1Cor. 6:9, Gal. 5:19, Col. 3:6, Philemon 3:2 and Rev. 21:8. It isn't stating that we...

    Replacement Theology thrown down in 1 verse?

    No, it's not odd it just shows how important it is. The word "hear" in this context means to understand and report while the word "keep" means to take note of, guard and preserve. Passing along important truths to future generations before writing was common was normally accomplished by...

    Who is the Babylon of Revelation? (part2)

    Back to Rev. 17:9..The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits. Here’s something else to think about. Your average atlas names seven mountain ranges across the continental United States. They are, from east to west, the Appalachians, Allegheny, Ozarks, The Rockies, The Bitter Root...

    Who is the Babylon of Revelation? (part 1)

    I believe that the USA will become the Babylon of Rev. 17 & 18, however I do not believe it is that Babylon at the moment, nor do I believe that Rome or a future apostate church is the whore mentioned in Rev. 17. I have many reasons for feeling this and I will try to list them all. It is a...

    I'll expand my reply to this with a new topic called, Who is Babylon?

    You are deliberately tying to be insulting by taking things out of there known context, it is not becoming nor warranted for the conversation we are having.

    Replacement Theology thrown down in 1 verse?

    If I had wanted to use "prophesy", I would have but that wasn't the topic. Were the OT prophecies of the Messiah for the generation that actually wrote them? No! Were all the OT prophecies about the millennial era or the kingdom of God for the generation that recorded them? No! Was the prophecy...

    The Sweet and bitter little book of Revelation 10

    You are misunderstanding the word "animal" it was the term the Strong's used. It just means alive with ability to feel certain things like, pain, suffering, joy, pleasure.

    Replacement Theology thrown down in 1 verse?

    In every case in the word that matters when God exercises judgment/punishment/miracles, so far, God has used natural things or things found in or on the earth. The only exception might be rain because some people believe it never rained until Noah, it wasn't new, per se, it was ice used in a...

    The Sweet and bitter little book of Revelation 10

    And I think you're overlooking the obvious. Catapults weren't that complicated and they didn't fly around all by themselves, the concept of flying and even women engaging in warfare was quite rare for the region. The selection of "technical vocabulary" was really pretty limited to what, wood...

    Replacement Theology thrown down in 1 verse?

    You never answered the question, What do you think will it look like when the sky vanishes? Don't mock unless you can come up with a better answer. Consider this, look up on a nice clear sunny day, look at the blue sky and the occasional cloud. Now look again on a nice dark clear night when all...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Not quite true, there were seven letters , the scribes copied six of them because Jesus wanted to ensure that some copies would remain even if some got confiscated by the authorities. So that future generations would know what to look for and expect. Yes, part of Rev. was for the actual seven...

    The Sweet and bitter little book of Revelation 10

    When one depends on symbolism we can make anything mean anything and then the truth only becomes more subjective.

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Many parts of Zech. 14 match the latter chaps of Rev. and I believe the "day of battle" from vs. 3 is Armageddon. The day of the Lord will continue until the new heavens and new earth. Consider this: Compare vs. 6 w/ Rev. 22:5, vs. 8 w/ Rev. 22:1, vs. 12 w/ Rev. 20:9, the various descriptions of...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    That is one option but the full description of that "Babylon" when you including Rev. 18 cannot be Jerusalem.

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Well, you probably won't like this one but I believe Zech. 14 to be post millennium, not pre.

    The Sweet and bitter little book of Revelation 10

    All literalists agree that symbolism is used and usually can be interpreted in a literal sense. Is John using symbolism or is he simply describing the way the things he is seeing look? A description shouldn't be classified as symbolism. In the passage in question John uses the phrases, "were...
