I’ve spent more time reading Revelation than any other part of the Bible. I like to try to work things out and I like the symbolism. This book is often wrongly called revelations. If you misinterpret the title, you will have no insight into its meaning. It is the Book of The Revelation of Jesus Christ; the book which tells you when Christ will be revealed. As with all the Bible, nothing is there that should not be there and everything, even the title itself is important.
Many churches won’t even attempt to teach it and those that do, teach that it’s all symbolic and its meaning is unknowable. They will give you just enough truth to have you chasing your own tail and you’ll go back and forth through the Bible forever. I have never spoken with anyone who understands it, nor have I read of its true meaning anywhere. Revelation comes at the end of the Bible for a reason; you are supposed to have read everything else before you arrive there. If you haven’t read and understood the Bible, you will not understand Revelation. All the terms and symbols in Revelation come from the Bible itself, so it is not possible for a casual reader to find the truth, no matter how clever he might be. The keys which unlock Revelation are only in the Bible and even if they are found, they are not easily understood and applied.
The Bible is like a jigsaw puzzle. At first glance, it seems to be a collection of unconnected fantastical stories about different characters and their trials throughout the ages. It is that but it is much, much more. All those stories have many different meanings, and they have stories contained within them, which run throughout the book. Each story is connected with all the other stories, and each has its own metaphors and symbols which unlock the meanings of the others. The churches don’t like it when you try to discuss this, and I have been accused of promoting mysticism when I try to discuss what the Bible truly says.
The Book of Revelation comes at the end of the book. The number seven is the number of completion in the Bible and the Book of revelation is full of the number seven. God created the world in seven days and the worlds’ purpose will be completed in seven days. 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. On the seventh day God rested and on the seventh day Christ will return and reign for one day. The first group of seven mentioned is the churches, then candlesticks and then stars. The stars are the angels or messengers of the churches, and the candlesticks are the churches themselves. A church is a group of people (Christians), and each church has a messenger of God assigned to it.
There is a message for each church. At the end of the first message there is a warning to repent, or Christ will come and remove the church from its place. At the end of the second Christ says to be faithful and He will give them a crown of life. At the end of the third another warning to repent, or Christ will come quickly and fight them with the sword of His mouth (the Gospel). At the end of the fourth another warning to repent or suffer great tribulation. At the end of the fifth, a warning to repent or Christ will come quickly and encouragement for those who are struggling. At the end of the sixth, encouragement to those who persevere, to hold fast and let no man take their crown. At the end of the seventh, there is condemnation for those who are “lukewarm” and encouragement for those who overcome.
This is a process; it is the completion of the work or duties of the church over seven periods of time. The churches are mentioned in a clockwise order, when looked at geographically, showing that Christ is speaking to each assembly of Jews or Christians at different periods throughout time. At the end of the message to the seventh church, Christ says: behold I stand at the door and knock, signalling an imminent return.
Next, we have seven lamps and these are the seven spirits of God, signifying a completion of the work of the Holy Spirit. Immediately after this we have the seven seals on the scroll (or small book). This represents ownership and a last will and testament. Whenever ownership was transferred in those times, a deed was written and signed and sealed with a wax seal. When new ownership was taken, it would be unsealed. This is Christ taking ownership of all that belongs to Him. There are seven seals because by the time the seventh is opened, everything has been completed.
Next Christ appears and has seven horns and seven eyes which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth during different time periods. Again, the work is complete. As the seals are opened, beings are sent out to do things on earth. The seals are opened one at a time, over the seven periods of time which correspond to those of the churches and align perfectly with documented historical events. The first seal is Christ coming to Earth, the rider of the white horse, though He is armed only with an arrowless bow. The sixth seal sees the faithful being sealed and brought before the Throne of God and the seventh brings the wrath of God on the earth, beginning with the first of seven trumpets.
God has had to intervene and pass judgement on the earth on several occasions in history, these are the events of the seven trumpets, blown by the seven angels. One occasion resulted in the flood; another was at Babel; another was Sodom and Gomorrah. Most of these trumpets have already sounded and I believe that we only wait now on the sixth or seventh trumpet.
Next, we have the seven thunders, which speak things that John is told not to record. Then, time ends.
Revelation 11 changes to a different time, where John is told to measure the Temple, the altar and those who worship. This is the same as Luke 18:8 Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? It is a reference to the return of Christ and a numbering of the faithful.
Then the Two Witnesses are mentioned. Many speculate that these will be Elijah and Enoch or Moses, sent back to earth to prophesy again, though there is no need for speculation as the Bible tells us who they are. We are told that the two witnesses are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks standing before God. We already know what candlesticks are, they are churches or assemblies of people. Romans 11 describes the Jews and the Christians as olive trees. The Two Witnesses are the Jews and the Christians. Fire proceeding from their mouths is the Word of God. With God, all throughout the Bible, everything is established by two or three witnesses. The world has been told Gods truth throughout time and no one can say they didn’t know they would face judgement.
Revelation 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. They will prophecy for half of the seven stages of time.
The next part, Revelation 11:7, describes the beast ascending from the pit, making war with and devouring the two witnesses. In Revelation a beast is a kingdom; the Roman kingdom destroyed the Temple, the Jews were scattered, and the Christians fed to the lions, among other things. Christians have been persecuted throughout the ages and they are killed every single day somewhere in the world, simply for being Christian. The worst of it was done by the church itself for “heresy”, which simply means choosing what you will believe for yourself.
After these things, when the seventh angel sounds, Christ takes ownership of the world and God judges everyone.
Revelation 12 starts a new section and begins at the birth of Christ, symbolically telling the story of the war in heaven, the casting out of Satan and the persecution of the Jews and Christians.
Revelation 13 Gives us the beast with seven heads, a beast in prophecy is a kingdom. The seven heads refer to the complete chronological human kingdoms throughout history. ‘Out of the sea’ means out of the peoples, nations, tribes and tongues.
The little horn that grows up among the ‘ten’, which came from the fourth beast, and is referred to as the antichrist, is the resurrection of the first kingdom built after the flood; Babel. This is clear from Revelation 14:8 Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city. Babel was founded by Nimrod and is known for the infamous tower. Babylon was a worldwide kingdom ruled by a single king;
Genesis 11:6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
Mankind had joined together and spoke one language; governing himself, wholly separate from God, apparently able to achieve anything he set his evil mind on. We have almost reached that stage once again. Any email I send can be read by anyone anywhere in the world, no matter what language a person might speak. We now have AI which translates in real time. We’re rebuilding Babylon now.
Revelation 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
Babylon; mankind controlling his own destiny, set apart from God, a one world government. Can you see it being built? Look a bit harder at the Great Reset 2030, it’s all there.
I should mention that 666 is the number of man, as in mankind, not a man. We are carbon based and have 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons. Technology is not a recent thing, there is nothing new under the sun. The whore of Babylon, who rides the scarlet beast is the church, a woman in prophecy is a church. Christ will return for his bride, who are the faithful who have overcome the world and see it for what it really is. The church, which deceives men and prevents them from knowing the truth of the Bible, shrouding it all in mystery as it pretends to be holy and innocent, will be destroyed by the final kingdom. All churches are run by the Catholic church and are one institution, don’t be fooled by denominations, none of them teach the whole truth.
There are so few Christians in the world today that I don’t think I’ve ever met one. I’ve met plenty who claim to be Christians, but they have no idea what a Christian is. Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. You’ll see those who claim to be Christians doing a good many things which contradict this and if you point it out, they say things like, it’s not possible to be perfect, only Christ was perfect. Judge not lest you be judged. Doing good works will not save you. God forgives those who have accepted Christ as their Lord and Saviour, it’s not possible to lose your salvation.
So, a Christian is no different than anyone else? Say a little prayer and let God do everything for you. These are the Chosen and Faithful and True who go into battle with The Lord God are they? They have their reward because they said a little prayer and another, more righteous man did not? Well then, go and eat, drink and be merry, you’re all saved. The “church” is the serpent, whispering in Eve’s ear saying, “Yea, hath God said this? You shall not surely die”. The much spoken of “apostasy” or the “falling away from the faith” has already taken place.
The mark that people receive in their right hand or forehead is agreeing with and doing the things that the kingdom promotes. This is the same as the mark from God in Deuteronomy 6:8 (New King James Version for clarity) You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. And Revelation 7:3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
There is a bit more to Revelation than this, but you can work it out using what I’ve written here. We can work out the timeline from Daniel and Nebuchadnezzar’s dream of the statue in Daniel 2. Each part of the statue represents a kingdom beginning with Babylon as the head, that kingdom fell to Medo-Persia, which fell to Greece, which fell to Rome. The kingdoms are described again in Daniel 7 and we are told that; the Roman kingdom split into ten which is described by the ten toes, and these shall stand until the return of Christ. This did indeed happen and a brief look at history will confirm it.
We know that Babylon will be resurrected but the kingdoms will remain as they are now. This kingdom is different as Daniel 7:19 says, it is comprised of many parts but is united. It will make war against the Saints and will prevail, Daniel 7:22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High.
It seems to me that 2030 marks the end of the age of grace when the time of the Gentiles will be fulfilled. There is much in the Bible which points to this and much also in the world. I recommend that everyone reads the Bible, this life is a short one, it has meaning, and you’ll only find that meaning in the Bible.
