Subject: 18 Book of Revelation |
Bible Note: Yes write the things which thou hast seen. past that's right. and the things which are. present,yes that is also write, and the things which shall be hereafter, after what? I mean write what you have seen, yes ok. write the things which are, yes ok, now write the this which shall be hereafter, after what? is my question I was going to make this a long note but I believe I will ask you this question after what? But also to tell you that this verse does not tell John to write about the thing hereafter like 2,000 years hereafter, he just said to write things that shall be hereaftere and we already know that verse 1:1 tells us that the things in this book were to come to pass shortly, so hereafter must be something shortly or the bible would not be true. One last thing, look at Revelation 14:13 you see that word henceforth, well that word is the same word that means hereafter, so we could say blessed are dead which die in the Lord hereafter, and we could also read Revelation 1:19 like this. Write the things which shall from henceforth, you see the same word, what I'm trying to tellyou is that only means that he was to write what was going to happen hereafter or from henceforth, not that it mean some time in the long future for if that was so we could look at revelation 14:13 and say that means that those who die in the Lord will not be blessed for many thousands of years because it uses the word hereafter or from henforth, see what I'm saying you can base everything on just one word, yes John was to write the thing that shall be hereafter but it was going to be a short hereafter. Look at these verse and you will see what I mean. Rev 1:1 and Rev.22:10 |
