That was pretty interesting what you wrote about on Bullinger's interpretation of RevelationYou are rightBut I do like what he wrote about Biblical numbers but never had read any other of his writingsHis logic has been used here many times over the yearsHis reasoning fits well for those who can't quite figure out why God would leave some believers behindNow Bob, you do know who also thought he was the only one.So trice up your loin cloth and keep a goinhttp://www.fivedoves.com/letters/july2013/billg730.htm
You're starting to echo Bullinger's Commentary on Revelation. Why not go all the way? Revelation is a Jewish book written for the Jews of the end times. The Church is not mentioned. That is because it has already been raptured out of the way. The Church is not the Bride. The Church is the body of Christ. The elect OT saints comprise the bride.
The seven "churches" are synagogues, not churches. (Synagogues actually have an office termed "angel".) How can "churches" be under law, works and not grace as these seven entities are?
HEY, I'M JUST THE MESSENGER! Argue with the author. If nothing else, I've produced the shortest summary of Bullinger's 500 page opus ever written. I've all but begged for partners in parsing this book, but, alas, it seems I must struggle on alone. It's slow work.
