It's a doctored version, where the word GOD was replaced by the word CHRIST in the prophecy.

Not scary if you know youve been saved and forgiven by the blood of Jesus, otherwise yes very scary. One way of trying to understand it better, google the chapter and go to enduring word. Helps explain it!

@TheWildEcho Sure. Keep telling yourself that.
TheWildEcho · 61-69, M
@RedBaron dont need to tell myself anything !!
RedBaron · M
@TheWildEcho Yet you are.
No! I want to know everything that God has spoken in that Book as well as the whole Bible itself. If he put it in there, it’s for us to study and hide in our hearts (and share the good news as well). The book of Revelation is Jesus revealing to John the apostle of end time events and John wrote all the things he saw in a book and hence the Bible shared with the world. Many prophecies are in Revelation. God doesn’t want his people clueless…

I don’t run from the Word of God, I run to it ! It has all that’s needed for God’s creation ‘man’…to live an abundant life.

No, I find it intriguing. When I was a child 8 9 years of age I began reading the Bible starting with the Book of Revelation.

The entire Bible is telling us to repent The Book of Revelation is telling us what happens to those who refuse to repent.

@RedBaron

what are facts your cartoon?

Fact that was written thousands of years before they occurred?

Stay as you are, believe as you do.
RedBaron · M
@Charity I intend to, but I don’t need your permission.

@RedBaron I'm making a statement. No more no less.

Now why would you think I am even trying to give you permission, oh I know an attempt at sarcasm.

Well...the Book of Revelation was written by John the Apostle, at the age of between 92 and 96. He had been exiled to the island of Patmos and during that time, he suffered significant persecution because of his faith.

70% of Revelations contains references to the Old Testament.

If you want to further your study of Revelations:

It's a difficult book. Heavy on symbolism, lighter on narrative. But it doesn't scare me. It's about the destruction of unrighteousness. If you're righteous, or approximating it (for humans), then you should be fine.
It's a symbolic representation of the political situation at the time it was written. Unfortunately, it's been misinterpreted as "prophecy." No less an authority than Martin Luther thought it shouldn't have been included in the Bible.

It's also very well written and enjoyable just as a piece of literature. If it were up to me, I'd place it with the Apocrypha like Bel and the Dragon and the Book of Enoch, which are considered scripture by the Eastern churches but not the Western ones.

Nah. Because I'm saved.

Oh and you can always ask about specifics.. Or even better ask God to let you understand the things you need to understand..
dale74 · M
Very figurative
Adstar · 56-60, M
Well let me reveal the ending.. God wins and we who are right with God spend eternity with Him as perfected beings in His perfect paradise called the New Jerusalem.. 😄 👍
