> It's fascinating to me Lou, how you link so many seemingly incongruent parts of Scripture. As a non-Jewish believer (taught through traditional, institutional Christianity), these parts were each a separate "portion" ... and not explained in a way that connected the parts into a whole (which, I realize is western-influenced understanding at work). I also recognize that the Bible was written to an eastern people, in an eastern part of the world -- and that the eastern focus is more wholistic -- so there would be more of an awareness of integration...

You wrote,[...in my own mind...].
The book called Revelation is about the mind. It is about two minds. It is about two masters. It is about two walks. It is about two roads. It is about two Gates. It is about two desires.
What are these two minds? What are the two masters? How are the two minds controlled by the two masters? The book called Revelation writes about the ways that the masters control the two minds. One mind is led to death and many entertain that mind. And the other mind is led to life and few find it.
The book called Revelation connects the symbols in scripture and reveals that to be carnally minded is death. And to be spitually minded is life and peace. And the member here asked about 666. I am answering that question.
For we have seen Solomon and his wealth. We have seen Pharaoh's army of 600 chariots. We have seen the giant image of gold of Nebuchadnezzar that was 60X6.
The world still has those that want to make a statue of themselves while they are alive. The book called Revelation is for any peoples to read while there is an idol of gold in their heart. This could be now, the time before now, and the time after now. Opening up the book now is the same as when John penned it and will be the same tomorrow. For the beast that comes out of the sea was seen by John. It was seen by me and it can be seen now by anyone. The people with the golden idols have all the bread that they want to eat. when I was lost on the sand and went to the city on the great plain and saw the statue, heaven rained down bread to me to keep me alive. The rider said that it was a sign to me.
I went back to the shore. I was hungry. The Rider was there to meet me. He said to me,"You saw the king and his idol of gold. You saw that he wanted power and the things that wealth can obtain and to have others bow down to him and he could not allow one to refuse so he killed those. He had all the bread that he wanted. But man shall not live by bread alone." "You had bread rain down from heaven and your fathers ate that same bread and died. There is a bread that comes down from heaven that a man may eat that he may live forever. Moses gave your fathers bread from heaven but my Father will give you bread from heaven that will give life to the world."
