All those opinions were overturned in a relatively short time. 2,000 years on and the Christians are still waiting for J.C. to swoop down and cure what ails 'em.

2011 and Revelation?
In simple language, what is the meaning of “Revelation”? Part 1:
The opening chapter of the book concluding the Bible introduces us to the One over all, the Originator of the Revelation message, Jehovah God the Almighty, “the Alpha and the Omega.” It gives a vision of the Channel of the communication, Jesus Christ, sh ...[text shortened]... he time has arrived for the great “vine of the earth” to be trodden out in the winepress.—Re 14.

Originally posted by galveston75Well I dont know, but I dont hold much hope. But like I said, I belive I have partial understanding of it, however, silly me wont just accept the biblical interpretation(s). I gotta go cross-refrence it with opther publications and scources of info.

Anyway, if there is truth to it, I guess people better be prepared, as I see it as a "book of warning".
So your simplification was from the Watchtower,right?

Be brave.
