Canary42, look in the index. It follows Armageddon.
Although, logically, it should precede it, but that's the problem with old books.

Theland, it is fairly obvious that you are not an avid reader of the Bible, or if you are you do not understand it, before you post why not do some research on what you wish to post about, it may make you more credible.

Baldric, where is my error?
Theland, your error is in consistently failing to examine the bible objectively. Your favourite 'prophecy' came thousands of years ago from exiled Jews who harboured the hope of returning to Jerusalem rather sooner than the 20th century. Politics eventually restored the Jews to Israel, not God, and that was because, for centuries, the Jews clung determinedly to an ambition – never allowing anyone else to forget it either. That’s rational objectivity, Theland. Try it.

I won’t ask why you have ignored my post 08:29 Thu. We know.

Naomi - quite silly.
You are not the expert you believe yourself to be.
/// You are not the expert you believe yourself to be. ////

Pot/kettle immediately springs to mind.
Theland, I've never claimed to be an expert - other people do that on my behalf. Which bit of my post do you think is silly?
Question Author
You consistently fail to understand the Bible.
The Bible interprets itself.
Metaphors abound, and understanding for example, parts of Revelation, requires reference to other books, like Daniel.
It is not a novel, to be read cover to cover in one direction, but this fact has so far eluded you, and left you comfortably pedantic in your assertions that you know more than those you patronisingly criticise.
Your undoubted knowledge is wasted, unless and until you make the final step to true enlightenment.
All you need to know is quite literally hidden in plain sight. You just need the key to unlock it.
The Holy Spirit is the key.
For goodness sake, Theland, get over yourself. You bang on and on about how factual the bible is and the moment you’re presented with facts you were unaware of, you revert into the guise of the pious evangelical preacher full of unsubstantiated gobblegook and claim ‘metaphor’ – as though you somehow think that will impress. Well, it doesn’t. If it makes you feel better you can attack me all you like – water off a duck’s back – but the bottom line is not only that you have no rational argument to support your claims …. but you really don’t know the bible.
What's closing the Persian Gulf got to do with religion?
The Holy Spirit of Jura Single Malt Whisky!! Woo Hoo!!
Question Author
If you say so.
You have no argument, Theland.
Naomi = feathers; ruffled; :o)
Biblical metaphors can be made to fit anything desired by someone convinced that Biblical prophecies are the truth.

In fact there are many so called prophecies in the Bible that have never and can never be true, even metaphorically.
I totally agree wth Naomi and others.
Also look at how the gospels manipulate the details of Jesus's birth to make it fit with what the old testament prophets said.
Question Author
A book of manipulation? Oh right.
Theland, even to the transport into Jerusalem on the first Palm Sunday ......
yes
