Thank you both for referencing the Book of Revelation. This book was written after the death, resurection and ascension of our Lord, Jesus Christ, not during His lifetime.

I got news for ya...Jesus Christ lived long before the conception of the baby Jesus and Jesus Christ our Lord is STILL alive

You guys seem to have a 'disconnect' when it comes to Jesus...Jesus is not a 'was'...He is an 'is'...

When you refer to Christ, what we hear is He's over there (in that monstrance), or no, He's over there (in the priest's hand)...

Just like your new cross bearer Scott Hahn who had never known Jesus til he saw HIM in a cookie at one of your churches...And then he ate Him...

If your premise had any credibility at all, then everything Jesus said to the disciples after he was ressurrected is pure conjecture and not to be believed...And that in itself is beyond the scope of reality to Christians that are filled with, and have the testimony of the Holy Spirit...And of course, if one is not filled with the Holy Spirit, that person is NOT a Christian...

You then, do not believe any of the Epistles of Paul since his knowledge of Jesus came AFTER Jesus the man was crucified and risen...

There are numerous citations in the Old Testament where God commanded folks to WRITE the scriptures...

Again, thank you for the commentary which simply does not apply.

Of course it applies...Jesus said 'WRITE'...

The Apocalypse, or Revelation to John, the last book of the Bible, is one of the most difficult to understand because it abounds in unfamiliar and extravagant symbolism, which at best appears unusual to the modern reader.

No, it's not that difficult to understand...The problem is some of you folks just don't want to believe it...

Discuss the issues all you want, but don’t make it personal.
