[QUOTE="throughfiierytrial, post: 69193951, member: 350587"] Revelation is a Book of the Bible which contains a profoundly spun riddle which is solved using a summary knowledge of the Bible as well as some in-depth details. Christians can gain much satisfaction from working on and solving the riddle as one finds a new sense of working hand-in-hand with God while reading through it and trying to piece it together. Once you solve a few parts one learns the nature of the reading and it becomes easier to solve the rest. The big danger I see all around with Revelation is that people lock in on their own pet solution before they put it to rigorous testing against the rest of Scripture and yet run ahead and proclaim it as Truth. Their own minds become an idol to them in that they are unwilling to admit they contradict Scripture. If they aren't seeing it as presented in riddle fashion they aren't getting it and they are polluting Christianity by contradicting the pure Gospel with their concoctions. Its interpretation requires prayer, waiting upon the Lord, a deep respect for the rule of not contradicting Scripture, listening before speaking and not to be too certain they are ready to teach...no one should want to be responsible for spreading false doctrine nor to leading others astray. There are all kinds of wild ideas out there about Revelation. [/QUOTE]
