[quote:Anonymous Coward 14672178:MV8yMjYwOTI2XzM4NDIwOTY5X0Q5MDE2Qzkw] [quote:Loki's Magus:MV8yMjYwOTI2XzM4NDIwODk3X0I4RTMzNzZG] [quote:Anonymous Coward 14672178:MV8yMjYwOTI2XzM4NDIwODcwX0I4MDQ4RjQy] Well I clicked the link and I must say I'm not impressed. Within the first two sentences it was clear that the website is promoted towards occultists, hardly the folks I would expect to be giving accurate commentary on the Bible. Not to mention that the website author even tells you to take what is on that website "with a grain of salt". That's a major indicator right there that you may not be getting accurate information at all. Furthermore, the three points you make in your post are so outlandish they need not even a rebuttal, they speak for themselves. If you want to start educating us Christians about what our Bible tells us, then maybe you should do a little of your own research yourself and not take someone else's word as fact. [/quote] I would say encouraging people to take information they find with a grain of salt and do external research to the website is not in any way an indication of close mindedness or an indication the author has anything to fear from people following this advice. Also, this is a standard disclaimer on my website, which contains many documentaries and information which is not created by me the author. I have done extensive research on The Bible. I likely knew more about it than most Christians ever will by the time I was 18. Did you read the actual documentation? Stating that information which is foreign to you does not need to be read or understood is not a sign that you know more about the Bible than me, but an indication of closed mindedness and willfull ignorance. [/quote] No, I did not read all the documentation. Nor did I watch my dog finish his morning dump today, but I saw enough of both to know there was a lot of crap involved. [/quote]
Original Message
Bible Fact 1: The New Testament has been written and re-written many times over, and nobody knows what the original content is.
Bible Fact 2: Many meanings explained in the book of Revelation are the author's own perspective on what he believes the visions mean, using standard human filtration.
Bible Fact 3: The person who wrote Revelation clearly believed the vision was related to things happening in modern day, and some references are not part of the vision at all.
