That's awesome man. Glad to hear that's working for you. :Hnds

Nah man. I know the scriptures quite well. It's just a misunderstanding we have here. I have hundreds of documents where I've compiled scriptures on various studies, including one on apocalyptic language used in scriptures, such as clouds and the moon and sun not giving light, etc. Lotsa...

Hey, thanks for the tip man! lfh

No, you made it up in regards to what the angels said about Jesus' return, where you claimed he would literally return in a cloud, because when he left, a cloud hid him from view. The angels never said he would return in a cloud. There is no scripture that says Jesus will return in a literal...

Well, that was when I finally understood what you meant, when you said that part. :gd

Ah, yes, but now you're back to quoting symbolic language. I thought we were talking about Jesus returning "in like manner", in which Jesus ascended until a cloud hid him from their view. Didn't you claim that verse as proof that he would return in a cloud? Yes, I'm pretty sure you did...

Marty, I just have to say, and I can't be the only one, but the guy in your avatar picture, who I can only assume is you, looks like Marty McFly, played by Michael J. Fox, who also lived in Vancouver, and so every time I see your name Marty Fox, and that avatar picture, I think of Marty McFly...

I wanted to give you a half like, but I can only give you a full like, so I gave you a full like, even though I only agree with half of what you said. I like your style, and I like your post, but this notion of an anti-Christ is exactly the kind of deception you're railing against. Ironic...

Ah, I get what you mean now. You're saying that since all believers are the new Jerusalem, that means all unbelievers are mystery Babylon. Why didn't you just say so?

Jesus is described as sitting on a cloud in Revelation 14. Revelation 14:14-16 I looked, and there before me was a white cloud, and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man[b] with a crown of gold on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand. 15 Then another angel came out of the temple and...

Ah, now I understand how you got there from here. I didn't notice that little detour road, but now I follow. Let me respond to that; I don't actually see a correlation between Jesus' ascension and the Lord coming with clouds under his feet, or even those of us going to meet those who are in...

I've read your paragraph several times, and I still don't see where you state what it is. It's like you really want it to remain a mystery. Let's try to narrow it down. Do you think Mystery Babylon is a city? Or a group of people? Or a system of some sort? I feel like you're giving me the...

It refers to people, in a way, yes, but more specifically, the people of a covenant. Also, I believe the harlot (old Jerusalem) includes all Israelites of the old covenant, not just those who lived in the city of Jerusalem. Excellent. We are making progress. So, in your opinion, what is...

It is inspired by God, not written by God. Just like I was inspired by my daughter to write a poem. She inspired me, but she did not write it. Surely you know the meaning of the word "inspired".

The Bible was not written by God. It is not God's word. The only words God ever wrote for us are the ten commandments. The rest of the Bible was written by men, just like us, and that why I equate the way we talk with scripture. God did not possess their bodies and control their hands, their...

I read that to mean that "all kinds of sins were committed in her". Also, let's remember that we use words like "all" and "everyone" and "everything" in our language every day, but we don't mean those phrases literally. In fact, I just said "every day", but I don't actually use those words...

I know this post was not aimed at me, but these kinds of accusations serve only to anger your target. Not helpful.

That's a weird response to what I said. I told you what I believe is symbolic language, and now you want to imply that I believe everything is symbolic? Are you trying to change the topic? Do you want to talk about Jesus' ascension now? Cause I thought we were talking about judgment day.

I literally said "I also don't think Babylon and Jerusalem are literal cities", so I'm not sure why you're claiming that I'm talking about what you call an "earthly city". Maybe I should rephrase to be clear: I don't believe the harlot refers to a physical city, as in bricks and mortar...

I don't think I missed the point. I also don't think Babylon and Jerusalem are literal cities. They are names to given to groups of people. A city is, after all, its people. So the original Jerusalem (which was the group of people we also know as Israelites) turned away from God and became...
