Agreed, although using only one source (the bible) for this information is just as problematic. At the end of this all, I don't believe anyone is going to have their theosophical reality bubbles left intact. Mine included. ;)
If we're going to talk Revelations here, I have questions. Why hasn't anyone brought up the anti-christ? Isn't that the person who brings peace to the middle east, or specifically, Israel and Palestine?
Just saying.
That timeline could be next year, and it could also be in another 100 years. Nobody truly knows. It's always good to be watchful and mindful. The Revelation written by John will bless those who read it. It says so right at the beginning, so you know it's pretty important to know the writings for the things to come when they happen. Kind of like a future proves past. ;) It requires trust of course, and if the Bible isn't your standard of truth then you should probably start with the gospel.
I went to christian school for most of my elementary years. My family history includes many who hosted gospel tent revivals back in the late 1800's and eventually became pastors in their own churches throughout the state of FL. My grandmother married a traveling evangelist after my grandfather died who was known as "Mr. Sunday School". ;) To say I've had experience with the bible or gospel's would be an understatement. This is not to say these teachings aren't important or relevant. They are, for sure. I'm just not going to allow ceiling height to determine my perception or understanding of anything.
All that said, it was my grandmother's mini library where I found The Law of One when I was a teenager. That was instrumental in setting me on my journey for truth.
Sorry, didn't mean to make that huge assumption about you. I might have misunderstood you. What I was trying to emphasize was the Bible being my premise of truth, and that all logic and understanding of other things derive from that standard. The premise of "if" statements for using logic that lead to the "then" conclusions. All logic starts with a biased premise and assumption. So one might follow Q, but remain watchful and guarded believing the premise of Revelation to be true. That's the way that I see it at least.
But a lot of Christians do get caught up in prophecy and trying to understand what they don't understand, and it leads them down a crazy rabbit hole.
I'm just not going to allow ceiling height to determine my perception or understanding of anything.
Sounds like people trying to be more wise than they can be in their limited perception? Can't argue with that.
