Revelation 12: the primary focus is about the geneology of Israel giving birth to Christ, by a Jewish woman, who also needed salvation, and Satan's attempt to kill thee Christ.

The Whore of Revelation basically begins in Revelation 17.

"I am His son as a saved Saint"

There is nothing that the Catholics can do for my salvation

MY GOD, MY CHRIST, MY SAVIOR and neither me has ADDED (and neither me? As in 'me and God?')

and I am free to reflect and bring it up for edification; so consider youself edified by a true believer In Christ."

And quite a humble character you are too.

Revelation is the work Luther and other reformers wanted to excise. This latest individual prideful interpretation of scripture is a product of C.I. Schofield who produced a bible in the late 1800"s with copious notes. Schofield sees everything thru a "Dispensationalist " lens and tries to decode the plan God.

Therefore, the Dispensationalists are the very ones who criticize Catholics for the magisterium yet look what evil they have fostered on Christians with Camping and his many predecessors.

The advocates of dispensationalism and Sola Scriptura will argue they are not as loony as Camping but their methodology and foundational assumptions, based on their individual interpretation of scripture, is no better than what they allege to be the man made doctrines of Catholics.

The prideful interpretations of the ones preaching the Rapture like Camping have no moral authority other than each other, because for each of them, it is just them and their bible.

These dispensationalists treat the bible as a supernatural code book, a fortune tellers code book. These Sola Scriptura types, with their cataclysmic prognostications, have always been wrong, and as such demonstrate lamentable ignorance of sacred scripture.

Rapture types know they will eventually die so they predict the whole world will die instead . It is a sick kind of twist in the human heart and imagination to look at Christianity to be a laughable religion for inadequate loonies.
