Hi SelaHobed:
In Homeric poetry, Apollyon is a Plague-Bearer god with a silver arrow i.e. in his role as the Destoyer and this could be extended to a Ruiner [i.e. of Crops] associated with swarms of crop eating locusts who leave a trail of destruction behind.
This is a story written in the heavens. I believe it relates to the constellations Scorpius and Sagitta. Scorpius/Apollyon and Sagitta/arrow. Similar to the story of cupids arrow. One has to ask what and where this arrow is pointing too and why?
What happens in the heavens above and the earth below when the sun enters the sign scorpio?
Is the sign Aquila/eagle representative of the phoenix when something happens at the galactic centre/Black hole? This creation story is repeated when Marduk fires an arrow into Tiamats heart which finds its parallel in the story of Sagitarius firing an arrow through the heart of Scorpio.
It seems like the ancients were trying to hint at something that happened in the centre of our universe which may have had a destructive effect on this planet.

3And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
4And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
6And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
7And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
8And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
9And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
10And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.

this is how you can tell the LHC is not the bottomless pit of revelation 9, although it certainly could be a different one.
1. it has to have a door or gate of some kind with a locking mechanism on it (DOES IT HAVE TO BE A MECH DOOR OR DIMENSIONAL LOCK)
2. an angelic being has to open that door or gate, with a key (MAY THE KEY BE A ASTERIOD COMET OR GAMMA RAY)
3. before the angel opens the gate, it has to descend to the earth (THE STAR ABBADON FELL TO EARTH LIKE IF THE LHC MAKES A HOLE SOMEWERE ELSE FOR THINGS TO FALL THRU)

I remember part of a program I saw many years ago. That part of the program said the locusts of Revelations were helicopters. Imagine someone who has never seen a helicopter who sees thousands of these approaching. I can imagine 100s or 1000s of approaching helicopters sounding like 100s or 1000s of chariots. They've never seen a vehicle which covers a person completely like a helicopter does so they can't imagine people being inside it, therefore: "and their faces were as the faces of men. "
My personal view is that much of Revelations are visions of the future (now). So if someone sits with Rrevelations and try to imagine a primitive person seeing modern warfare and technology I'm sure much of it should become quite clear. I've said it more than once that the reason so many people dismiss the Bible as fiction is that it is "sold" as the "Word of God", but it is far from it. It has history, myth, real prophecies and visions of the future as portrayed by primitive man. All IMHO of course

next problem:
the abyss is always called the sea, a large, deep body of water, and so on.
now i'm not saying it is water, i'm saying the door is in the water.
also, the etymology of abyss is apsu, absu, abzu. thereby allowing access from the door of the LHC to our world, by the weird metal locust things.

First of all, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) isn't going to make anything that the Universe itself doesn't make. The idea that the LHC will somehow cause the end of the world is nothing more than fear of technology.
