Revelation is a prophesy as to what will befall the Roman Empire for their persecution of early christians. I know you dweebs want so badly for "Babylon" in Revelations to equal America or the United Nations or the West, but if you're going to kick this shyt, then please know what you are talking about. And understand what was going on when John penned that letter to the early christians.
Revelations talks about Babylon resting on seven hills.
Guess how many actual hills Rome rests on
I've seen you endtimes christians juelz into trying to make America have 7 "hills" by counting
mountain ranges like the Sierra Nevada, Appalachians, Rockies, etc
You fool, the very first chapter of Revelations is telling you who the audience is intended for:
"
Write in a book what you see, and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea"
Hmmm, I wonder why an angel tells John to write this letter/book to 7 churches in Roman provinces
Its because they are getting destroyed by the Roman authorities. So this letter addressed to them is to give them hope and encouragement, and also to predict the destruction of the Roman Empire. Smarten up and learn how to read things for what they are. You think John is writing a letter to these 7 churches to tell them about events that are going to happen 2000+ years in the future that has nothing to do with them? Meanwhile, Nero had his foot on their necks at that present time!? Maybe you should read up on the history of early christians and see why they needed this letter.
The mark of the beast is the stamped image of the emperor's head on coinage, which without it, you couldn't buy or sell. It's not apple pay, credit cards, or your social ID number, or some other shyt. Stop it.
The fake jews John is referring to in those chapters are those jews who say they are christians but are not. He is speaking in the spiritual sense not a race sense. Go read Roman 2:29. These fake jews had already churches established in Asia Minor and John goes on to talk more shyt about them in Revelation 17.
This is what I mean when I say you end-times christians are insufferable and self-centered. You think because
you are living through some disasters that it must be a sign of the end times. Worst disasters happened before you and other disasters will happen after you leave this existence. Just because we have smart phones and cameras catching everything that happens in the world doesn't mean there is an uptick in human suffering.
Why did you bring up that Deut. chapter? That has nothing to do with you claiming that god has given you foresight to see that this is the beginning of the end. Which is what this whole thread is about. I've already pointed out that no one knows but God when these things will happen. If you believe in the bible, it even warns about psychics and things of that nature, so you sound like a fool right now.
Im not even going to address you thinking that fukking scorpions are going to come out of the hadron collider. You need to be put in a strait jacket
*i saw a couple posters in this thread who said that they were shook while reading the thread. Know that if you believe in god, he doesn't operate in fear but love.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, love, and sound judgment.
