I think they need to have a prophecy forum specifically for all this Revelation garbage that constantly gets spewed on here. I like my doom porn to be straight up and not speak in metaphors. People have been saying the events of revelation are happening ever since it was written.

I think this is the 2nd or 3rd Version of mankind... I also think there is a creator, and it somehow associated itself with Christianity, Jesus, err Big G, really changed how man lived, with his lessons of right and wrong etc, as I said thou it got really perverted along the way, yet at its core, it challenged man and made him evolve from savages to respecting one another, being good etc, in hopes of salvation and living a afterlife, lets face it, being a christian is all about going to heaven...
I haven't got a clue about what it is I am breathing in, looking at, and why I am hearing it all, yet I know within the depth of my instinctive understanding, SOMETHING, bigger then me created me, is conscious and if I focus hard enough I can see what I am in yet not understand it, YET I can sense its existence and it is overwhelming, this I call Big G...edit on 18-3-2013 by Bicent76 because: (no reason given)

I believe the Bible isn't the "real" story anyhow, but I do respect, study and regard it with some esteem. Having said that, I also know it has been through various editing, beginning with the Council of Nicea, onward, (that;s a very long time, especially if you believe like me a lot more time has actually passed than we readily acknowledge openly anyway), additions and subtractions.
But what you say here, even as I believe what I do, I'd like to point out to you that the "scope" of time of revelations was to cover at least 1,000 years or more, quite clearly. So........factor that into what you wrote, and I'm not sure your point of view holds much validity.
Our best historians, whether I believe they were telling the truth or not--they thought they were--would tell you that mankind's biggest shortcoming has always been his inability to guage actions, consequences, and the long view and big picture. Your comment is a perfect illustration of this.

When Rome fell and Europe went into a dark age, people were convinced Revelations was happening. When the Vikings appeared in 800A.D. as men "from the North" people were convinced Revelations was happening. 1000 years after the death of Jesus Christ people were convinced Revelations were happening, and on and on and on. Even today, I overheard a lady at the checkout line in the grocery store tell another woman that "Revelations is happening now." Everyone always thinks that their generation is the one that Revelations is taking place in. Revelations seem to be taken very seriously simply because it was put into the Christian Bible. Even by people who don't go to church.

If you look you will see it is always drying up.
Mathew 24:6 - You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
Matthew 24:7 - For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Luke 21:11 - And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
Revelation 1:3 - Blessed [is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time [is] at hand.
Matthew 24:13 - But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved

Beyond this, if he does not come.

God, in the new testament, is Herod.
he was instilled as the king of the jews by rome. as both of their systems were an extension of egypt, that made Herod a pharaoh, who was considered a god/ king, hence Herod was called god.
He had sex with a 'virgin', supposedly by the name of Mary. Rome had many prostitutes, both male and female. they often played the part of a virgin, which, in Hebrew generally means young woman, the select of lot were refered to as vestal virgins.
Jesus was the favorite son born to her. Only son was the way of saying favorite son in the bible. Possibly James was his brother.
There is a Saviour in the New Testament. It's just not any of the above.
The 1260 days are in fact the 1260 years in which the Roman Catholic Church did in fact "war against the saints". This is past history. It was the major reason for the Protestant Reformation. It all ended in 1798. Since that time, the Catholic Church was/is not that same "spirit of antichrist" that it was for those 1260 years. The Catholic Church you are I grew up in is no way the same as it was when it was in fact an antichrist for 1260 years. It does still have some of the trappings of that old Church, however. I am thinking on their insistence on man made traditions. Some of these are beautiful.
Catholics have to stop and think just really who Protestants are. Protestants are ex-Roman Catholics who saw that the Catholic Church, from 538 AD to 1798 AD was in fact the antichrist that Daniel prophesized about. Protestants did not want to break away. But put yourself in their shoes during that period--indulgences, inquisition, many false and sinful popes, scripture not being given to the masses to read, and haughty popes claiming they were even above the kings and princes of Europe.

No.
Its all applaudable what you made up, but....no.
The eufrath stands for ' the border between east an d west '
as in the occult Pyramid Texts ' the winding waterway '
as in the ' so above so below'.
the "east " is hiding the Kundalini
the serpent down the chakra
which will raise
= maitreya
the false prophet
= the false dimension
' coming from the east '
do i make sense ?

The rivers drying up must just be a natural coincidence as I have it from a very reliable source that Satan has been dealt with for a few generations at least.
A mermaid that I have known for ages was talking to her cousin the unicorn & he related a story from a cute little reindeer he runs with.
Apparently since Satan has made so many people bad for so long Santas coal bill is through the roof.
Now back in the day this wasn't a problem but now with China buying up all the coal they can get, Santa's in a bind.
His bill is so bad he can't afford nog for the elves & there have been rumors of a general strike.
So he offered the Christmas chocolate concession to the Easter Bunny if he could work some magic.
Now Bunny being the crafty trickster that he is came up with a plan.
Satan is all about the pleasures of the flesh so he's a sucker for chocolate, Bunny let it slip to a lower demon where he had a generations worth of the brown gold stashed in a cave.
Satan being the greedy (blank blank) that he is went after it with all his minions.
Well what Satan didn't know was Bunny had the stash charmed by this herb cooking leprechaun that has no equal when it comes to potions & such.
After Satan & his hoard gorged on the chocolate they passed out, then Santa with the help of all of Rudolph's offspring blocked that cave with a boulder so big God himself would have a hard time lifting it.
So long story short Satan is tied up awhile digging himself out of that cave so you humans can stop stressing about the End of Days for a few hundred years give or take.
It's a damn big rock.
