.You and all the people that chose that ,chose BABEL.
If you can prove me wrong ,
do so.walt2000
This is pure ignorance,You are defying the only rule that Christ gave you.Rev.22/18.
and,let alone how to intrepid. the seven Thunders ,and ,you know not a thing, about the eighth Thunder.
You are mixing the old and new testament,and defying the word of God.Let Revelations alone..walt2000
Sorry For Dominating this thread, but there is only one End Time View.All else is Babel.

There is one rule in the intrp.of Rev.That rule is Rev.22/18
The moment you introduce a element, from any other book ,of the bible ,or other version of Rev.that includes a scriptural point ,you come in to err. in the intrp. of Rev.And that makes you wrong.
Wow. Where to begin with thinking like this...You have to get every thing from the book of Rev.Then prove it .with the OT. prophets.
Fine. You show me where this is said in this detail using this form of interpretation.Not Find the Prophets and try to prove the profits right .using Rev.
No it's not.Rev. is like a ribbon of words ,that come out of the mouth of God.
There are no italics ,or space's ,or punctuation marks in the book (Ribbon).You have to take this ribbon and wrap it like a long prayer cord of words ,around and around ,like a cylinder. Then Tighten the ribbon ,around tightening it side by side, to make a cylinder of it ,not unlike a cardboard roll,or like that of scroll .
A better question would be to ask what was Christ's end time view was and is. He told us in the four Gospels what this was, although if you go by the end time views written in books and preached on radio and TV, you'll never understand what Jesus said about the end of time. When the disciples asked Christ about the end of time, Jesus replied, that He had told them all things. Well, that's good enough for me but most people will not accept what Jesus said.
As an example of this fact, does any interpretation you know of the book called the Revelation of Jesus Christ even remotely resemble what Christ said about the end of time in the four Gospels? Jesus said nothing about the au-millennial, post millennial, pre-millennial, post tribulation, pre-tribulation, mark of the beast, antichrist, etc. But what did he know about Bible interpretation? Since Jesus did not believably tell us about the end of time, we are forced to make up a theory of the end of time ourselves, right?
The only problem that I see with making up my own theory is that Christ said that if I added one thing or took away one thing from his testimony about the end of time that He would blot my name out of his book and place all those terrible curses and plagues on me listed in the last chapter of the Book of Revelation. Now do I believe this?
If I believe this, the only safe way to interpret Christ's testimony about the end of time is to use only the vocabulary of Jesus Christ. That should be enough to explain the Bible. Biblical terms to explain the Bible. Why not? If you can use only Biblical terms to explain your theory, you have a half way chance to be correct. That seems to be what Jesus encouraged when He said do not add to or take away from his testimony. The problem with this, if one does not use operationally defined terms, vernacular terms, and stuff people never heard or read about in the Bible, we will not be able to sell a lot of books and stuff. Do you get the point?
Without a working knowledge of the rest of the Bible, Revelation is the subject of ignorant interpolation... meaning it could be interpreted to mean anything (and THAT is adding to or taking away from the book of unveiling / revealing).
Wow. Where to begin with thinking like this...
Fine. You show me where this is said in this detail using this form of interpretation.
I'll counter with:
2 Timothy 3:16-17
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
No it's not.
Revelation is the roof of the scriptural blueprint of the house of God. Genesis is the foundation. This is why the two contain similar footprints (as in a blueprint of where walls would stand and extend). Apparently someone convinced you that Revelation somehow stands alone.
{snip the outline of what any one can read in the book for themselves is there}
The repetition you mention is throughout the Bible. God repeatedly tells humanity the same story line in different ways.
I further challenge you to prove your thesis given the fact that Revelation was not the first book of the Bible written or revealed but as far as we can tell it was the last book to be written. Why would God reveal it last if as you say he wants it interpreted first?
This do's not include an Eighth Thunder, hidden between the White Horses.A better question would be to ask what was Christ's end time view was and is. He told us in the four Gospels what this was, although if you go by the end time views written in books and preached on radio and TV, you'll never understand what Jesus said about the end of time.

I think Revelations is a see I told you book ,a stand alone book .If Christ warns us not to defile rev. by introducing any other book, or change Rev.to suit our selfs .Look at this chart and tell me that there is no structure to it .And the introduction of any other material would off set the original alignment.And would be babel.Every thing is aliened in a perfect order.horizontally and vertically.This fact can not be ignored.
This -au ,pre, mid ,and post trib. anti.Christ then marking 666 on their head or right hand .Christ comes ,then he go's ,and then he comes again,rules 1000 years then gives it to ???. I don't know ,just doe's not make sense.This ,to me ,Babel.
Rev. has a straight forwardness about it ,
If you have soooo many theorys to this fact, I ,would pick the simplest one, this is to me, and maybe
me only .Is it that which is below.
He comes as a potential (wearing a crown) winner, --------------------,1st. advent.
He comes back as a conquerer gets ,multi.(several crowns) real winner ----,2nd.Advent.
And rules forever.
Now that makes sense, to me.
Put your self in his place ,you are God .You dame some one ,he is damed ,You do not have to come back and re dame him.He is dead meat.....

there's a few good ones...not many IMO, but a few..A better question would be to ask what was Christ's end time view was and is. He told us in the four Gospels what this was, although if you go by the end time views written in books and preached on radio and TV, you'll never understand what Jesus said about the end of time.
He did tell us all things, through the Prophets and to the disciples...He is the Word of God...and ALL of Scripture is His Word.When the disciples asked Christ about the end of time, Jesus replied, that He had told them all things. Well, that's good enough for me but most people will not accept what Jesus said.
yep...much of it...all the Seals for example....even in a row..(same order as Christ's warnings in the Gospels Olivette prophesies)As an example of this fact, does any interpretation you know of the book called the Revelation of Jesus Christ even remotely resemble what Christ said about the end of time in the four Gospels?
Sure He did...He said AFTER....in Mat24:29-31, Mark13:24-27, making the timing of Christ's arrival post tribulation...making our time here now, pre millennial. Christ is the one who taught us what the mark is...what you think and what you do....remember that He is the Word of God...Jesus said nothing about the au-millennial, post millennial, pre-millennial, post tribulation, pre-tribulation, mark of the beast, antichrist, etc.
everythingBut what did he know about Bible interpretation?
pardon me? Christ certainly did tell us...Mat24:3 and forward...and Mar13 as well...even Luke21 tells us many events (some may argue).Since Jesus did not believably tell us about the end of time, we are forced to make up a theory of the end of time ourselves, right?
well, we can all be mistaken about what Christ said(translation), or meant(our understanding of the scripture), even if we rely on just Christ's own spoken words...that is, if we are being honestThe only problem that I see with making up my own theory is that Christ said that if I added one thing or took away one thing from his testimony about the end of time that He would blot my name out of his book and place all those terrible curses and plagues on me listed in the last chapter of the Book of Revelation. Now do I believe this?
If I believe this, the only safe way to interpret Christ's testimony about the end of time is to use only the vocabulary of Jesus Christ. That should be enough to explain the Bible.
we are to use the whole Word of God to interpret scripture...well over half of the Revelation of Jesus Christ given to John, is prophesies from the OT prophetic books...told in much the same langauge...we are to understand the symbolisms of the NT prophesies only by being first familiar with the teacher (the OT prophesies)......Biblical terms to explain the Bible. Why not? If you can use only Biblical terms to explain your theory, you have a half way chance to be correct. That seems to be what Jesus encouraged when He said do not add to or take away from his testimony. The problem with this, if one does not use operationally defined terms, vernacular terms, and stuff people never heard or read about in the Bible, we will not be able to sell a lot of books and stuff. Do you get the point?
