Bible Discussion Thread

I never was taught about revelation, chapter 9, 14 to verse 19. I believe that the Jehovah witnesses had a different version as they update the noble every ten years for their own benefit when it says not to add or take away any portion of the Bible. As I have not been to hoif with the noble, would someone kindly explain if this is relevant to the Euphrates river today and is this shyit has shrunk so much inlast 30 years.

Thank you in advance for helping me and may God bless you.

I'd like to take a minute from each of you and say...Thank you! Y'all are so intune with God's word & willingness to help those in need of Gods truths. Especially in this day & time is so very much needed.! Has even opened my eyes a few times. God bless & continue to be with you all.!

Thank you , I appreciate the opinion , you are right about Knowing the narrative inside and out (is) critical. Ezekiel 38 is the battle of Megeddo not Amageddon .

The manuscripts don't say kings of the east , they say those of the rising son/sun , also symbolic . the river euphrates is an literal river , but as much as it's been literal it's a boundary , symbolically between Israel and Babylon . To correlate , in Rev 16 You don't really believe literal Angels are bound (in) the river waiting to be loosed do you ?

You don't believe that in this sophisticated day and age and technology and all the mega dams built along the river that they are waiting for it to dry up naturally to cross over do you ? Okay ! we can have difference of opinion all day long but the drying up (is) symbolic for the boundary being removed and Satans camp moving in onto God's mountain 2 Thes 2 . The 4 Angels , the number 4 is the biblical number of earth . to loosen the 4 angels of earth is to say release the bad players , those of the rising sun/son . Even though he is already here at the WOE of the fifth trump Rev 9:12 where it says one woe is past , It's not until the 6th trumpet sound that Satan reveals himself and slays a third part of man which is what verse 15 infers and is what was asked to be explained (hence thrust upon the scene), And the four angels had been loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, in order to slay the third part of man. (an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year is a specific time) and it saying the 6th trump not the fifth when the men are slain . I said God's elect were sealed at the Woe of the fifth trump thanks , there is a fifth trumpet sound and a Woe of the fifth trumpet , there is a difference .

Olga , the physical drying up of the river has not to do with scripture . it's symbolic , the river Euphrates in scripture is symbolic for the divide between truth and confusion , babylon . The water separates lies and deception from the truth . when the river dries up so do all the lies and deception . nothing but truth remains and all it's biblical spiritual completion is cast upon mankind/earth . the verses you ask to be explained are of their own symbolic nature where we must be familiar with seals trumps vials and whats in them . in short , it's the brunt of the the great tribulation , when Satan and the locust armies are thrust upon the scene in an instant where a third part of man is slain by the dragons tail . the 6th vial poured out on the earth . but the tribulation had already begun back @ the woe of the 5th trump where all God's elect/grass were sealed .

Baker,

The Euphrates is drying up this very moment, and will be ready for the kings of the east to cross over, too invade Israel, Ezekiel 38, at the sixth trumpet, Luke 21:20-24. There are many articles, video about the Euphrates, look it up. It is not simply symbolic because it will happen on earth, and is happening right now. That alone should strengthen your faith in God. If purely symbolic, why would God have us be Watchman, observing the signs of the times, if there is nothing to see?

"Satan and the locust armies are thrust upon the scene" is at the fifth trumpet, Revelation 9:1-11. I spy the fifth trumpet allegory when America attacked itself and rushed off the kill those without the seal of God in their foreheads (Muslims). If these are indeed the end-times, then all of the signs should reveal themselves in broad daylight. Knowing the narrative inside and out is critical.

The saints are sealed before the sixth trumpet, not the fifth.

It is the man of sin, anti-christ, who places the abomination of desolation at the sixth trumpet. You said it well with your allegoric slain dragon. The sons of Joseph are going to experience 539 BC again. All of Babylon's plagues come in one day, Revelation 18:8. It is similar to one that languishes from the effects of radiation, baldness and clean teeth.
