    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    I hope you agree that in Revelation as well as in Daniel, there are verses that shift between the heavenly realm and the earthly realm. In this case, regarding the 144,000 we have both. From a literal point of view, we see in Revelation 7:3-4, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    Part 2. Revelation 14:3-5 And I heard the sound of harpists playing their harps. 3 They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    Part 1. Revelation 14:1-2 1 Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of loud thunder...

    Revelation 13 - the sea and the earth beast

    I believe there is enough biblical and historical information on this.... it cannot be any other. So, who do you think could possibly be the 4th kingdom? Rome was certainly the most dominate power after Greece. There are also perfectly symbolized as the iron kingdom. They conquered the entire...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    The sealing of God’s servants in Revelation 7:4-8 strongly parallels the final plague in Exodus and finds echoes in other Old Testament passages. These connections highlight God’s consistent pattern of mercy and protection for His faithful. In the final plague of Exodus, God commanded the...

    Matthew 24:14, Zechariah 8:23, Isaiah 66:19, Revelation 7:4-8, Romans 11:25-26... I think you might be able to fill in the blanks here...

    Revelation 7: 4-8 The 144000

    Thanks for your thoughts! I would ask that you might consider the following: That today’s Christianity that is preached is nothing like that preached by Paul in the first century. His Word has been corrupted, and changed greatly. And there are still maybe 4 billion people that are not...

    Revelation 13 - the sea and the earth beast

    Thanks for your thoughts! I would ask that you might consider looking in Daniel. There, He specifically identifies the 4 beasts or kingdoms that He calls out of the sea. And in chapter 7 He introduces us to the little horn for the first time. And it is he who comes out of the 4th beast of...

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Very unusual for someone to express their true feelings about such important and intimate beliefs. You would probably be the only person that ever lived if you did not have doubts about God. You mentioned you focus on God’s attributes … which are so many and He has put them on display for 6000...

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Ok, why don’t you comment on my interpretation…. And by the way, this interpretation also fits with the 3 Greek translations for 6, 60, and 600.

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    No, re-read it .. 6, 60, 600. What is your interpretation of this?

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    God’s plan to destroy the beast and the false prophet reflects His ultimate authority and justice. Despite the beast's (papal Rome / papacy) dominance and the awe it inspires—where it is said, "Who is like the beast, and who can make war against it?" (Revelation 13:4)—God alone will bring its...

    I thought that is what I was presenting?

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Thank you for your thoughts! No, I don’t see the little horn (papacy / harlot) either temporary or insignificant. In fact, he / they represent the actors in Daniel and Revelation that go against God and His people - and His people are both Jew and Greek that have accepted Him as their Lord and...

    Thanks for your response… I believe it is time for the two of us to move on…. No problem!

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Thank you very much for your response... The Scriptures are so difficult to interpret and even more difficult to try and put them into a writing that makes sense .... and, if the interpretation is off, then everything else that follows is truly worlthless... Anyway, please tell me what part of...

    Revelation 13 - the sea and the earth beast

    Once again, you are bringing Daniel and Revelation together and you cannot do that... but you still try.... it is a rabbit hole. I have given you the scriptures in Daniel identifying the 4 and only 4 kingdoms... these are not my words, they are God's words ... He specifically calls out 4...

    Revelation 13:17-18 (666)

    Really enjoyed your post.... here is what I have so far regarding 13:18...I have read the other interpretations on this subject and none of them made any sense to me.... In my opinion, it is necessary to try and interpret Revelation, not in a physical manner, but in a spiritual or symbolic...
