If you begin with Nebuchadnezzar's sequence of world empires, all your spiritualization, false doctrines, and false assertions FAIL. And by taking away from Revelation, there ARE consequences:
Rev. 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
But that's ok, I'm quite confident your "church" will save you from any accountability. As you stand before GOD, just blame your "church", and you won't have to worry about all the things you asserted that weren't true!
James 3:1 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, since you know that we will be judged more severely.
