Revelations 6

[The True Flesh]

17And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;

18That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.

So many dead bodies the Lord will summon the animals to come & feast on them, this goes back to Ezekiel 39 (which some said was figuartive as well, in Matthew 24:28)

ROFL @ this being interpreted LITERALLY !!!

I mean how dense do you have to be to believe that an end times battle will ensue sometime in the future where they will actually be on horses.

and why do people insist on calling it Revelation(s)

There's no S.

..........Hilarious !!!

PEACE

hum, well apparently not much anyone else in the R&R has a solid enough backing with the book of Revelation, or the Bible for that matter, to even comment one way or the next on what's posted in the O/P

In dealing with any prophecy coming from Revelation let us not forget what the Holy Spirit had St. John record by inspiration at the very beginning of the book:

"The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John" (Revelation 1:1)

"Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."(Revelation 1:3)

can anybody explain how events occuring some 2000 years later is appropriately described as something 'soon to take place' and something 'near' relative to the audience John was writing to at that time, in the immediate context? And please don't throw out the 1000 years is a day to the lord verse.

Thought our reality didn't apply to God? What if 2000 years is too short for God? Like someone once told me, 50,000 years could also be "SOON" to God. If you believe it should've happened, where, when and how? And how the hell are we still here?

The guy, who seen all this in the future, did he travel into the future and see it all go down? Or is this just being explained? How does he see all this?

It was revealed unto Him by the Holy spirit, being the angel spoken of in Revelations 1:1

This is the comforter/spirit that Jesus of the bible spoke of when He said He had to return to the Father but would leave His disciples with the comforter....

John 14

26But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.




John 15:25-30 (King James Version)

25But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.

26But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

27And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.

This is the same spirit/angel that was in the OT

Exodus 23:20
20Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.

21Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
22But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.


When this angels speaks He speaks the things that are told to Him to speak, He like satan is a servant to the Most High as is all His ministering spirits, & here is the name of this angel

Luke 1:19

19And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.

which leads us into the glad tidings.....

Revelation 1

1The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

God the Father gives the message to God the Son who in return gives the message unto the angel, the angel gives the message to the Children of Israel, in this case it was given unto John to shew things that must shortly come to pass.. & The children of Israel (being the Real preist for the Most High, gives the message to all the children of Adam, this is why no gentile (european) nor edomite (jewish) can touch the book without confusing someone with it, misleading someone or giving their opinion on what they "think" the scriptures are saying), Everything was given to Israel to show the world... This is the protocol of the Most High

Exodus 19

6And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.

Romans 9

4Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises

Ask any "scc" what any of these things are according to scripture & see what they come up with? what is the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the law, the services of & most importantly the promises?
& for those who get it twisted & think Paul is a Roman, becaue he was living in Rome & claimed to be a roman "citizen", like I'm an Israelite living in "america" I am an "american" according to my residence, but my nationality is an Israelite. Being an Israelite has nothing to do with ones belief or religion.

Romans 11
1I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

& you are right Vibe, a day to us is 1000 years to the Lord, All the Most High is doing, is giving us time to repent & live accordingly to what He's commanded of us...

2 Peter 3:8
8But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.


So what may seem forever to us is nothing in the eyes of the Most High, this is His creation, He called it the end from the beginning with Moses, all the other prophets & apostles confirmed & added their own details with the help of the Holy spirit (law/OT & the Holy spirit known as the comorter/Gabriel, that visited the apostles after Jesus went back to sit at the right hand of the Father)

You mean 'time' doesn't apply to God? That's right, it doesn't. That's the whole point of the '1000 years is a unto a day and a day is unto a 1000 years to God' scripture...some people take that to be a literal measuring system for God's time though.

I don't believe everything spoke of in Revelation has happened but i see a good bit of some of the things regarding the tribulation period and all that to have passed already. Of course the second coming of Christ hasn't occurred yet. But the tribulation period and the destruction of Jerusalem can be verified through secular history and/or through writings of other Historians at that time.

 

[Israelites]

@vibe, the bible states out of the mouths of two or more witnesses let facts be established, let see who else said the same thing peter said...

Psalm 90

1LORD, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.

2Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.

3Thou turnest man to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.

4For a THOUSAND YEARS IN THY SIGHT are but as YESTERDAY when it is PAST, and as a WATCH in the NIGHT.

These scc are a joke!
