Darcy, One way (I believe Rev 12 as polyvalent levels of meaning)of understanding Rev 12 is to start with Rev 11:19. Now go to Gen 3:15, Ex 40:34, Luke 1:35, 2 Sam 6:9, Luke 1:43, 2 Sam 6:11, Luke 1:56, 2 Sam 6:16, Luke 1:41. Emmaus |

Darcy, The Ark of the Covenant and the woman are the common elements. Emmaus |

1403 | 18 Book of Revelation | Revelation | Emmaus | 95750 | ||
Darcy, Several levels: the woman represents; the woman of Gen 3:15, she represents Israel (daughter Zion), and she represents the Church. In the concrete the images converge on one real person, Mary, just as the image of the male child who rules with a rod of iron in concrete expression is Jesus and the dragon is Satan. In the Ark of the Covenant God's presence was borne among the Israelites and in Mary God's presence was borne in the womb and delivered in a real birth. Not the majority opinion here but worth comtemplating. Emmaus |

Candy, "His title is VICARIUS FILII DEI which is latin for Vicar of the Son of God.Uor V is 5 , I is 1, C is 100, L is 50, D is 500 ,do the math and what do you have? 666 This is the official name of the pope." Actually that is not one of the official names or more acurately, titles, of the pope. One of the actual titles is Vicarius Christi, but unfortunately that accurate rendering did not lend itself to the task at hand, so a fictitious title had to be made up to match up with the numbers for the preconceived slander. I know it was made up by someone other than yourself. I just thought you might want to know the correct title. Maybe it can be added up to some other unpleasant designation. At least you would be starting with the truth regardless of where you might end. As for the rest, life is too short to be spent chasing down every lie whether or not the person telling it is aware that it is a lie. The truth will ultimately prevail. Emmaus |

Darcy, Here are the parallels I was trying to point out. They seem too obvious to be a coincidence. Revelation 11:19 "Then God’s temple in heaven was opened in heaven, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple... 12:1 And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars...." ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Genesis 3:15 "I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise thy head and thou shalt bruise his heel." Revelation 12:4-5 ...'Then the dragon stood before the woman about to give birth, to devour her child when she gave birth. She gave birth to a son, amale child, destined tro rule all the nations with an iron rod." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Exodus 40:34: "Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle." Luke 1:35: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2 Samuel 6:16 "David leaping and dancing before the Lord." Luke 1:41 "The babe leapt in her womb." -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Samuel 6:9 "How can the ark of the Lord come to me?" Luke 1:43 "And why is this granted to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 Samuel 6:11 "The ark of the Lord remained for three months in the house." Luke 1:56 "And Mary remained with her about three months." |

humpy, All Christians believe in Predestination because it is in Scripture. They differ about how Predestination is understood in its application. The arguments on this subject probably take up more space in the archives than any other single subject and I do not recall anyone on either side being pursuaded to switch sides. Emmaus |

humpy, "There is only one way to understand anything that is in the bible and that is let the bible answer it." That is exactly what both sides of the argument on Prediesitnation aas well as other areas of dispute claim to be doing. Hadn't you noticed? Emmaus |

Tim, What is the Lord's Supper but an anticipatory sharing in the wedding feast of the Lamb? I do not think it was an accident that John's vision in Revelation took place on the Lord's day and heaven opened up to show the Divine Liturgy in heaven. Rev 3:20; 4:1.

Thank you Nolan. It just seemed appropriate to start off the new year with a prayer that focuses on the Lord of Time and all creation. Emmaus |

1411 | Nazarene equals Nazirite? | Rev 1:12 | Emmaus | 79162 | ||
It is clear to me there is a differnce between being a Naraenene and a Nazirite. I think some people get the two terms confused because of the similar, but not identical, pronunciation and spelling. Emmaus |

Brannon, If there was ever a book that requires a lot of help and even then leaves many questions it is the Book of Revelation. Below is a passage from one commentary I have regarding Rev 1:20. "The angels of the seven churches may stand for the bishops in charge of the them, or else the guadian angels who watch over them, or even the churches themselves insofar as they have a heavenly dimension and stand in God's presence as angels do. Whichever is the case, the best thing is to see the angels of the churches, to whom the letters are addressed, as meaning those who rule and protect each church in Christ's name. He is the only Lord, which is why He is shown holding the stars (angels) in his right hand. In the Old Testament the "angel of Yahweh" is the one charged to guide the people of Israel (cf. Ex 14:19; 23:20 etc.); and in the Apocalypse itself angels are given the mission of ruling the material world (cf. Rev 7:1; 14 ;18; 16:5). So Christ exercises his loving care and government of each church through the mediation of "angels", but it is difficult to say whether this means angels as such, or bishops or both."

heaven rings, "First, Matt 17:1-8. Jesus told his disciples in 16:28 "Assuredly, I say to you, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom." This is an interesting take on the Transfiguration that folows; seeing Jesus in his kingly glory. "Now this transfiguration, was it Jesus who was transfigured, or the disciples? See Rev 1:12-18. In otherwords did Jesus just allow them to see that which He really was? " The passage says: "and behold he was transfigured before them" so I have to say Jesus was the one transfigured, but for the edification of the three who he allowed to see who he really was, as you note. Moses and Elijah of course had previously met the Lord on a mountaintop and many scholars agree they are likely the two witnesses of Revelation. "The souls you mention in Rev 6:10 are those who came through the tribulation, not those who preceded us. See 6:11 and 7:9-14" I would say that any martyr killed for the faith has already gone through the tribulation. There had been many already by the time of John's vision. Emmaus |

jlpangilinan, Yes,I was alluding to Matt 22:32 as well as 17:1-8. Rev 15:8 starts at 15:5 saying "After this I had another vision." Not the same as before. The companions of the Lamb were already with him earlier in Rev 14 on Mount Zion. Before that they were in the heavenly temple in Rev 4, 6 and 7. Maybe they were out of the heavenly temple in Rev 15 because they had gone out with the Lamb in Rev 14. Emmaus |

Johnny, My point was made earlier in stating that we are all together in Christ whether here on earth or in heaven. And those in heaven are aware of what goes on here just as God is because they are in Christ and Christ is aware and cares. They are the cloud of witness in Hebrews and the saints praying before the throne of God in Rev. We always have recourse to our brothers and sisters in Christ who pray for us with Him and in Him. We do not ask them to appear or speak to us but to God with and for us in Christ Jesus. Jesus did release the souls of the just from the prison of Hades, so they are with him and interested in everthing He is interested in which includes us. Even the rich man of the Lazarus story was interested in what was going on back on earth, and he wasn't even in heaven. As for your question about works, prayer is the work of the church here and in heaven. Check out the dictionary definition and origins of the word liturgy. And of course all good works are the work of Christ by those in Christ. Emmaus |

Johnny, "Story of lazarus is not literal it is compose of past and after the second coming. it is the complete story of one mans life before he died and after the judgement. If we believed that story of lazarus is very literal do you mean all rich will go to hell and all beggar will go to heaven? It is also contadict other passages in the bible:" Your logic here is faulty. Also, where does it say it was in the far distant past or mention the second coming or say thousand of years later? The rich man's brothers were still alive and it must be before the second coming since the second coming is not mentioned and Jesus is not mentioned. "Ec 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ec 9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. " Your interpretation of the above would indicate you believe at least in the concept of "soul sleep" and your iterpretation of the lack of consciousness and rewards in the afterlife is in conclict with your own previous interpretations of this and other passages. "If you recall in that parables Lu 16:29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. When Jesus tell about that parables, it is thousand years after moses died, how is true that the brother and sisters of the richman have moses? " They have Moses and the prophets in the Hebrew scriptures. Emmaus |

Johnny, Your exchanges with me always have an inquizitional tone. Do you usually get very far in conversations with this approach? The fact that I have never taken the positions you question in the form you state them seems of no concern to you. You may wish to review some of my previous posts on these subjects in the archives. I am finished with this interrogation. Call my lawyer and put that rubber hose back in your desk. Emmaus |
