Well genesis 6:14 does not tell you to build a ark, but God told Noah to build the ark and if you will notice he did not tell anyone else but Noah to build the ark all the rest of them were destoryed. Now as for Revelation there is not just one single verse but there are many of them, would you care to look at some more of them?? I don't want to wast your time if you are not into this or if I am making you mad I don't mean to do that. But if you want me to show you that Revelation has been fulfilled then I would be happy to do so. Here are some verses you can look at and if you are still interested in knowing more than I will write more. First off let me ask you some questions and see if they can fit into the future idea about Revelation OK? First of all John is writting to the seven churches in Asia, not in the USA or not to some future churches in the near future, no he is writting to churches in Asia in his day? 1:4. Now if the things in the book were to happen some 2 or 3 thousand years in the future what good would it have done to tell that blessed are they that hear the words of the book and those who keep those things that were written therein, how could keep something that was not to happen untill after you were dead and gone, you could not. Now let jump head a little bit to chapter 10 were we told in verse 7 that when the seventh angel sounds the mystery of God shall be finshed, so when did this angel sound or has he yet? Yes he has 11:15 tells us that when this angel sounded that Christ would reign or rule over all kingdoms of the world now the question is does Christ now rule over all the kingdoms of the world, surely you wound not think that he doed not, Matthew 28:18 says that he does so this angel must have sounded a long time ago. Rev.14:13 tells us that blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, now notice when from henceforth not sometime later but henceforth which means from here on out those who die in the Lord will be blessed but htis could not be if none of this has happen yet. Chapter 14: tell us about the 144,000 of which some people believe that they are Jews that will be sealed in the end times but that could not be true because first of all they are not just Jews here but people who were saved over two thousand years ago and how do we know this? because it tells us not only when they were but who they were and they are not jews to come in the end times and preach to the world as so many believe today, no look at it verse 4 and hear we find that they were not will be, but were redeemed from among men, which of course means that they were people saved by Christ, but when were they saved? Not in the future as so many believe look at verse 4 again they were the firstfruits unto God and unto the lamb, now how could they be firstfruits if they are not yet come they would have to be the lastfruits and not the first.Firstfruits means this the very first, but we don't have to studing long on this to see the clear meaning of it, these 144,000 thousand saved ones were the very firstfruits,the very first ones who were redeemed from the earth by the blood of Christ, so easy that a child can see it, they the first ones to be saved and therefore this has already happend and they could not be coming in the future some time soon. Let us look at just one more and then I will close and if you are still interest then I will write you more. Let us look at the beast of Chapter 17 we are told that this beast is a king verse 11 and that he is the eighth king at that, well the eighth king of what, notice that the angel tells john in verse 10 that there are, not will be someday, but there are seven kings, now notice this five have fallen not will in the future but they have already fallen, now listen to the angel, he tells john that one of those kings was, one is, you see here we are told that one of those kings that make up the beast was living in John's day and as a matter of fact as he was writting thia book. Now he tells him that one was yet to come but that he was not to last very long and then some people try to tell us that the eighth king will not come until 2, 3 4 or even 5 thousand years in the future, no they were seven kings, five had fallen, and one was living as John wrote this and one was to come and only last a short time, but now here we go now let the bible tells us who and what this beast is, verse 11 the beast is the eighth KING, KING, KING, KING. and we are told that he was of those seven kings. Well the beast is a King and is og the seven kings that John was writting about so who do you think he is talking about? You see my friend the bible is the only truth there is and it tells us that Revelation has been fulfilled we just have to study it for ourselves. God Bless. P.S. who do you think the angel is talking about, please post your answer I would like to hear what you think. |
