good am,
well i made it. This site is terribly slow at even trying to get on then in between it crawls., oh well.
here's to you, lift up your glasses and let's toast for the wine is good.!
cheers mate. and good day to you all form just outside mOntreal , Canada.
i 've noted many of the posts above dancing around and perhaps some even flying into the sky with raptured theories. Let's get our feet on ground,a sn was the rest of the Bible prophets, including Jesus. If you take God's word literally , then you can never really hear God. Here's why!
god's language is eternal , the same yesterday as today and will be into the future, therefore when you read the OT yo will note that some of the cities mentioned have gone or disappeared,and though some f the prophets refer to these places and cities in the future, should you take it literally you would for all intense and purposes cause God to be writing fiction. Sowhen you see certaing cities, you must consider the character of them, as well as the peoples involved. now in orde to make any good sense of the prophecies, you have to correlate the times and the personalities. For instance when Jeremiah or Ezekiel speak of brute beast and give certain types of animals for personalities, yo muct vcary frward the same lion, or crocldile or donkey or lamb type personalities and apply them to day. That is the only way to keep some sequaious reasoning to the order of the Word. A lion is a lion yesterday and toeday and tomorrow, and it's characteristics can be applied to people at any time. Therefore the metaphors, symbolisms, figures of speech have to corroblrted and correlated effectively to bring some logic and substance to the Text.
now enter Revelation and certain beasts, angels and so on are present but these are to applied to the human forms in most cases. not some pie in the sky angel cloud, thing.

Secondly, consider the one person that joman, did not give credit to in the last post . reference Rev 19:12 ".....and he had a name "written" that no one knew but he himself."
twoessential points here. well three, first off the reference is messiah, secondly it was "written" , where, obviously inscribed into the Bible, and thirdly ,, noone knew, which implies could determine nor see EXCEPT he himself. ________________ now there is a forth to this but requires other text, that ' he first' could see, then reveal then be confirmed then open the seals which has certain implications o f a sequence to it and requires, revealtion, faith and scriptural support, and conviction for there to bring all necessary ingrediants forth.
is it on this forum that i said in another post, that there exist many numbers in Revelations all referring to certain individuals and ther is one number " not left out, but not revealled or seenivisually, but is written to identify the messiah.

So with that , i'll post and go see on other threads, if i have made these assertions before, if so, well there they are again

peace and
good day to ya"ll

Good Day David

Here is another aspect of the name that is written that no one knew. Messias' name is no longer Jesus. This is another reason why no one knows his name. He will or he has a different name at this time.

If you are a believer and you are still wondering if you are in the end times, then you must either be dead or you must be dead.
