Hi Hidden in Him,Blessings in Christ, Marilyn, and welcome to CF.Net.
There are some things we would disagree on, but I like the courteousness of your post. That always makes for a more pleasant and edifying conversation, even when there's differences of opinion, so I appreciate that.
This is an interesting concept, and a different take on the seven seals than I believe I have ever heard before. I will put that to memory and see if the Spirit brings it back to remembrance. There may be something to it.
Now, here we would disagree on your application. Those He destroyed in this parable - the vinedressers - were the Jewish leadership in Jerusalem during the time of the New Testament, and those whom He gave the vineyard to in their place were the apostles - the spiritual leadership of the early church. This interpretation fits the context better, IMO, because the rest of the parable deals with how the leadership in Judah had treated the prophets who came before Christ and then the apostles.
Psalm 110 is a good application.
The scales representing the economy is also good, IMO. Where I think we disagree on the rest is that I no longer hold to the EU being the seat of the Beast's empire in the earth. I have been meaning to get into that with For His Glory at some point, but it would be a lengthy discussion so I have been putting it off, LoL. (Forums have a way of wearing one out sometimes, and there's another forum that recently just about burnt me to a crisp, so I'm basically in down time right now and just hanging out mostly here because it's much more peaceful, quiet and generally friendly).
We agree that the globalists who run the EU and basically all governments in the West have indeed brought us to a terrible place. And while some regard it as conspiracy theory, I believe it has been deliberate.
God bless, and welcome once again to the forum. I hope you enjoy being a member here, and thanks for your interaction.

Thank you for your gracious response. I also mainly like to find good discussions that give room for our different understandings at the moment. Now I would like to respond to your 2 points.
1. The parable of the landowner. Probably better for its own thread, however I would say there is no evidence that the Body of Christ will take over the land of Israel.
2. RRE. I certainly agree that that theory is not scriptural. Another good topic to discuss on its own thread. So we agree on that point.
Marilyn.
