Brothers/Sisters, To All Who Are Seeking The Truth --- Another chapter from that "little book" of Revelation Chapter 10 --- also read Amos 3:7.
1 - I hope I am making my position clear to you. I am a christian, just Bible, Bible, and More Bible, and the "Little Book" of Revelation chapter 10.
2- I am trying to show people that the is miracle is the Bible, and how I prove it is throught prophecy.
3 - I am not trying to convert anybody to my "church" or "religion" period. I pray the Lord's Pray every day--- and His Kingdom to come on earth as it is in Heaven.
4 - I have been blessed with the "Little Book" of Revelation Chapter 10 written by Barry I. Hyman.
5 - I agree with Barrys' writings, and would like to share them with anabaptists, to show that the chapter I posted "Behold Lord Here Are Two Swords", shows that in Germany the Two Prophets of Revelation 11, they where anabaptists, the city was Munster. Following is a short history of what they did --- The concept of the antichrist distorting, obscuring and suppressing the truth contains implicitly within itself recognition of the need for the ultimate restoration of prophecy to the earth, and we find the Scripture in Revelation 10:11-11:14 predicting in the clearest imaginable terms the appearance together of two prophets long after the Biblical period and yet long before the last days to undo the work of the second beast and function as a foreshadow of the universal restoration to be accomplished at the conclusion of the age, that being "the restoration of all things that God has spoken of through the mouth of His holy prophets since the ancient days" (Acts 3:21); and these were the two prophets referred to above, the first called John of Leyden and the second Bernard of Munster, this latter bearing the spirit of Peter to whom my Lord said, "When you will be old, you will stretch your hands out and another will flay you and bear you up where you have no wish to be" (John 21:18).
Surely it is the instantaneous recognition of self-evident truth that is most prized in the sight of the Holy One, but yet for all that come and see how many signs the prophets of Munster fulfilled! For they bore the first of the two swords, smiting off with it the right ear of Malchus (whose name means Empire), for the image of the beast of Revelation 13:14-15 represents the successor polities to the Roman Empire with the so-called Holy Roman Empire the type of them all, and they converted the entire city of Munster into a commune, the life of the commune being the first degree of beatitude (Mark 10:29-30), and raised insurrection against all the forces of Babylon and were therefore besieged by an army led by a Catholic bishop to the south of the city and by a second one under the command of Martin Luther himself, his hands already stained with the blood of hundreds of thousands of peasants exterminated in accordance with his directives in 1524-25, to its north, and to superimpose the head of Malchus over the map of that Empire would place his right ear at Munster; but the ear was healed for then, and the second sword has been held in abeyance all this while for the world rising of these last days, now that the Time has come. And they prophesied the three and a half predicted years (initially at Leyden), and those were years of drought in that region, but clothed in sackcloth, for the gore of all the world was yet splattered over the maw of Grendel and he shrieking in delight; and he soon broke into Munster and could not now bear the crushing of men by one blow as was his custom but tore off the skin of the prophets piece by piece, his kidneys tingling with pleasure all the while, the hag named Progress, that second of his kind, standing by and smirking, now with the thought of the convent and now with that of the laboratory to come; and this was in January of 1536. When they escaped the horror of the fiends lair, a horror compared to the crucifixion of their Lord, and entered again into His joy and the dimension of the Garden, their corpses were then suspended in cages from the spires of the Munster cathedral, that effervescence of green and purple streaked with red surely He spurns the temples made by hands breaking surface over the lair of the fiends sunk far below in the depths of the gloom, "over the broad square of the great city, which is called according to the spirit of it Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified" (Revelation 11:8); and this continued for three and a half centuries to fulfill 11:9-10 and no one, not Catholic, not Protestant, not French libertarian, thought it proper to bring the corpses down and bury them until the time had come, and that was in 1881, 345 years after the date of their martyrdom, so great was the fear that their ministry had awakened in the hearts of all the rulers of Europe, not a man of them excepted, and that it had been centered in a city as well, and they had thought that surely all cities were theirs alone and that men would only groan from out of the cities forever (Job 24:12) and that in them by their nature could be found only darkness with no admixture of light at all; and how great was their joy that they could by this symbol demonstrate their victory over the prophets, if only for a while, and repress the sure knowledge their ministry had brought them of the doom to come of their class.

There are, according to the witness of explicit verses, three levels or degrees of inspiration, two of which were utilized in the giving of the Scripture. Of the first the Lord said, Blessed by the Spirit are the poor people, because the Kingdom of the Heavens belongs to them (Matthew 5:3). And so every poor man on the surface of the planet does receive the guidance and inspiration of the Holy Spirit which witnesses to him, though in non-verbal form, all those truths, however infrequently confessed by word, recognized as self-evident in the heart by the whole of the lower class, children of the Kingdom, be they ever so alien and therefore ludicrous or repugnant to the children of the evil one. And of this type is the witness of I Peter 4:6, For this very reason is the Gospel preached also to those who are dead, so that they, though having been judged according to the judgment of men through the flesh, might yet live according to the will of God through the Spirit for those who, having been predestined to be conformed to His image, are found like Him in this world (Romans 8:29; I John 4:17), being of the lower class and so children of the Kingdom and its heirs, already having the true form of the Gospel written on their hearts but without words, will accept it, recognizing it as the same as the inward witness always known to them, whenever they find it presented verbally, and so will become at that point in this life or the next born again or regenerated by the breaking through to the level of consciousness through the witness now of the word of the Scripture of the message given them of old by the Spirit; and as in I Peter 1:23-25.
The second level is the result of a powerful impulse from that same Spirit, the reception of which automatically transforms the recipient into a prophet. Yet the message from the Hidden World delivered in this manner is given in a non-verbal form and filters through the personality of the prophet involved before being committed to writing, where it can become distorted to some extent by his prior inclination or bias or where elements of his prior education can adhere to it. Of this type was the communication that came to all the prophets of the Old Testament, and all the authors of the New Testament books as well with the sole exception of the apostle John when he received the book of Revelation from the Holy One, the True One. And Paul clearly witnesses of the distinction between this level and that higher one of verbal inspiration to be introduced later at the time of the giving of the perfection of knowledge and prophecy, saying in I Corinthians 13:8-13, Love will have no end. But whether there are prophecies, they will be done away with; or tongues, they will cease; or knowledge, it will be done away with; because we know partially and we prophesy partially. When that which is perfect comes, however, that which is partial will be done away with. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I did away with childish things. For now we see things enigmatically through a looking glass; but then face to face. I know now partially; but then I will know fully, just as I am fully known. So there remain faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
Thus the book of Revelation, in which we find written out for us in unmistakable detail the course that history has in fact taken and the institutional forms that have in fact arisen during so many ages as have passed since its giving, emerges as the apex of the whole prophetic process and as the lens through which all concepts and predictions of the whole Bible are to be observed and analyzed and as the touchstone by which they are to be measured, in which the Old Testament latter-day prophecies are reapplied to the group of the true elect and purified of their Israelite and Judean nationalist discoloration, and in which the whole eschatological content of the remainder of the New Testament is structured and ordered.
Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty!
Just and true are Your ways, O King of the nations!
Who will not fear You, Lord, and glorify Your Name?
For You alone are the Holy One.
For all nations will come and worship before You
because Your judgments have been revealed!

ON THE NATURE OF INSPIRATION
There are, according to the witness of explicit verses, three levels or degrees of inspiration, two of which were utilized in the giving of the Scripture.
