The coming "phony" resurrection of the beast
Thank you Pastor Riley for
your wonderful (as always) paper about the beast and his number.
I was reading your quote from Revelation 13:3-4, and it occurred to me
that it says, "And I saw one of his heads AS
IT WERE wounded to death......"
I have read
reports these last few years about certain people who may have had their
assasinations faked for huge political reasons. Don't know
whether these reports are true or not, but it could be..........I think
here we have a hint that a fake assasination, complete with Hollywood's
best special effects, will be implemented, to produce this spectacular
event. Anyone agree?
As the beast incorporates all LYING wonders and deceiving
tactics to accomplish his rule over the earth,,,,,,,,,,would not this resurrection
be FAKE? When Jesus said "I am the resurrection and the life",
I believe He meant exactly that............
As usual, I am way over my head again.........YSIC

MORE ON THE PHONY
RESURRECTION (EARLIER POST)
Regarding my post
above, about the phony resurrection of the beast, I checked out the word
"were", in Revelation 13:3-4, John seeing one of the heads "as it were",
wounded to death. The definition would appear to mean "as",
or "like", that is, John very carefully does not say "I saw one of
the heads wounded to death", but he says, "as it were" wounded to death.
In other words, "like" or "similar" to being dead.

Hey,
that's just another thing we have to look out for., as if we did not have
enough on our minds right now.
(We
will be so exhausted by the time our Lord arrives, that, like Daniel, we
will have to have Him put out His hand and say,,,,,,,"Peace unto you, now
arise, and let's get going.....")
