Wow, Lastday! That's a great theory. You've spent a lot of time on this, it would seem. Commendable effort. I am of a different opinion, but I see you are working hard to understand the mysteries. Myself, I am of a preterist view. I reckon the seven-headed beast to the Roman Emperors, the woman to Israel, and her child as being the Christ, or some representation of Him. I see the number of the name as Nero Caesar, while also recognizing him as the king that was currently in power. There are a lot of interesting thoughts to the preterist view, and it is worth investigating. Premillenialist advocates view Preterism as impossible because of their interpretations, and Preterists view Premillenialism as impossible for the same reason. Neither side has ever been able to convincingly argue their view. The debate has raged for at least 1500 years. Whichever way you look at it, you are still doing well in that you are seeking knowledge and mystery. Just remember, fear of the end is not the way to bring people to Christ. Many fire and brimstone preachers like to scare people into being Christians, but God is love. Perfect love casts out all fear, because fear is torment. Again, good job on the work you've put into your studies, but I would humbly advise that you keep this sort of information amongst believers. Love is the best way to win new souls. This was the message of Christ, and it drew multitudes. Ancient |

Ancient, You claim that "Neither side has ever been able to convincingly argue their view. The debate has raged for at least 1500 years." But new evidence ends the impasse. The last martyrs coming out of the great tribulation must complete the number appointed to die (Rev.6:11) before God avenges their blood. At the same time, those who "overcome to the End" do not begin to "reign over the nations" until Christ comes in glory WITH all the Saints." The martyrs do not begin to "serve God day and night in the temple of heaven" until God casts the Beast and False Prophet into Hell. They don't even "enter the temple in heaven until the last (7th) plague of God's anger empties in midair and God decrees: "It is Done; the End has come." Rev.15:5,8. They describe the plagues as having manifested that God's judgments had already completed His anger and call for His wrath. The day of His wrath and the appearance of Christ with all the Saints begins the 1000-Year-Day of the Lord. Mel at www.lastday.net and lastday1@cox.net. |

I'm sorry lastday, I don't want to converse with you on this. Like you, many over the years believed they had it all figured out in regard to the Revelation. I am not God to say beyond all doubt that you have not figured it out, but I have my reservations about theories suspect of speculation. There isn't a generation gone by that didn't think they were living in the end times, and this goes all the way back to the Apostles themselves who told everyone that the hour was at hand. I don't know the answer, and I don't care to speculate about it if you are fanatical. I'm sorry to offend. I just wanted to give you a little praise for your hard work. We all need a pat on the back now and then. Thank you for responding. May God keep you well. Ancient |

lastday, you wrote: [Ancient, Thank you for the encouragement. Mel Miller] Any time brother. We should uphold one another, and I don't believe that this only refers to upholding in weakness, but in strength as well. Love to you, Ancient |
