MARVELS IN THE WORD OF GOD!

Stan Lee, Marvel Comic Book Legend, Dies at 95
Most Doves would be aware that Stan Lee, famous for Marvel Comic Book characters (amongst other creative ideas!), passed away a few days ago. Stan Lee was taken to Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on Monday after suffering a medical emergency, and was declared dead shortly afterwards.
Working primarily with artist Jack Kirby, Lee wrote as many as a half-dozen titles or more a month and transformed Marvel Comics into a powerhouse, featuring socially relevant stories that spoke to young readers in a way the form hadn’t previously. More information on Stan Lee can be found on the link below (or by googling Stan Lee).

MARVEL in the Word of God (see details below)
60 references for ‘marvel’ (MARVEL or MARVELLOUS) in the Bible (KJV).
The timing of Stan Lee’s passing is interesting, coming at such a high watch time for the Rapture. While many of the Marvel super heroes may have detracted from true Bible heroes, including the living, powerful and ascended, Jesus Christ, the Bible is full of MARVELS! Creation is a marvel! The Word becoming flesh is a marvel! His death on the cross, resurrection and ascension are marvels! The Rapture and His return in overwhelming victory to the Mount of Olives are MARVELS!!
In the KJV there are 60 Bible references for MARVEL I have narrowed this list to around 20 that are presented below (without commentary).
The MARVEL Stadium in Melbourne, Australia
Doves may be interested to know that a large stadium in Melbourne, Australia has recently been renamed MARVEL Stadium. It has most recently been known as Etihad Stadium, but from September 2018 it has a new name: Marvel Stadium. An eight-year naming rights deal has been struck with the Walt Disney Company Australia. A Christian Awakening meeting is being held at the Marvel Stadium this weekend (16-18 November 2018).
If the Lord tarries, and revival breaks out in Australia (as has been prophesied), perhaps His MARVELS will take place at MARVEL Stadium!
Denis in Canberra! I never cease to MARVEL at His Word, and the prophetic MARVELS that are being revealed! Maranatha!!
