If we do a word study concerning Revelation 9:1, we discover some things.
Here is the verse as recorded in the KJV: "And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit
Again, literal: “...and I saw a star...
The question was, "When was satan cast out of heaven?" He was was cast out at the time the Lord Jesus defeated him and took back all that Adam had given away. That time being at the resurrection.
Foot note: In Daniel everywhere it says daily sacrifice sacrifice is an added word and needs to...
The point being that the "blood" that was going to be required of natural Jerusalem's hand was from the slaying of Abel to Zacharias. That is they would be punished for ALL the righteous blood that was shed prior to the advent of the Lord Jesus. All the righteous blood shed going forward shall...
PART FOUR
In Revelation 14:13, John heard something, which we will discuss when we get to Revelation chapter fourteen. What we need to see at this point is what John beheld after he heard, in Revelation 14:14, and what John beheld was, “...a white cloud and upon the cloud sat one like unto...
PART THREE
The Scriptures says that, “...When He ascended on high He led captive a host of captives...†(Eph 4:8) Let us therefore take a look at Acts 1:9. “...And when He (Jesus) had spoken these things, while they ( the disciples) beheld, He was taken up; and a cloud received Him...
PART TWO
“...Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: (for until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law. Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over...
PART ONE
Verse 7 - Behold, He comes with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen.
“...Behold, He comes with clouds...†Clouds,as a symbol, has to be understood so we will start with...
Brother, if we are going to use Matthew to establish a teaching it needs to be used in context. The Lord Jesus said, "Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and...
Haven't had much time lately. :) We do see 12 precious stones upon the priests garments pointing to the 12 tribes of natural Israel (the people of God.) If we follow that revelation through and pass from the natural to the spiritual as we are instructed to by the Scripture we discover that...
Thought maybe I had missed something in the thread so I went back and reviewed all that has been posted. I see lots of maybe's and suppositions, but I can find nowhere that the symbols applied to this harlot by the Lord have been set forth from Scripture.
As an example, in the parable of the...
I could say what's in a name :) but having again been in error I stand corrected. It was indeed Pope Vigilius that ascended in 537 A.D.
He was the first Pope placed by the Byzantine Empire (the fragmented Roman Empire) and it was after the death of his predecessor Silverius that he was...
It is sad that we seem to not have the heart to apply ourselves to the Scriptures so that, before the Lord, we can discover the meanings of the symbols used to describe THE HARLOT.
First, do you suppose we can trust the catholic encyclopedia to contain the facts? My point of reference is from secular historic records and encyclopedic information. For the sake of peace though I will concede a name mix up.
Second, it was from successful defense of Rome by Belisarius which...
In order to discover HER identity it would probably be needful to examine very closely HER makeup. For, SHE is after all symbolic.
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations...
Silverius was replaced by Pope Vigilius (not Pelagius) - Pope Pelagius' birth name was Vigilius. the other Pope Pelagius that your referencing is Pope Pelagius II.
But, we are far afield from the thread which is about the stars - However, to truly understand the stars as prophetic symbols in...
I still would suggest that we need to know the picture that is painted by this "woman."
She may indeed be "Jerusalem," but not in the sense we have been led to believe.
We see, "And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her...
The Lord God Almighty does everything in an overlay so as there can be no denying Him in the end. :clap
However, to truly understand the stars as prophetic symbols in the NT we are remiss if we pursue any other course than the one laid out by the the Lord Jesus in the Book of Revelation when He...
Thanks for the corrections on some dates, and with respect to the Edict of Theodosius in 380 A.D. Ancient history can certainly at times be convoluted.
With respect to the “last Arian horn” being removed I stand corrected. It would be better stated that the last Arian (heretic) Pope...
