Revelation as a Historical Narrative



THE REVELATION AS A HISTORICAL NARRATIVE

This article is essentially a "copy and paste" of information found in Dr. Stephen Jones book entitled The Revelation Book 3 which can be found at the following location:  http://www.gods-kingdom-ministries.net/teachings/books/the-revelation-book-3/ 

THE FIRST SIX SEALS

ROMAN GOVERNMENT
All four riders in Revelation 6 represent different stages of government in the history of Rome.  The horses were released to bring divine judgment upon the fourth beast empire which is the Roman Empire (refer to Daniel 7).

Seal #1
The white horse represents Rome at its height of glory, which began in 31 B.C. when it defeated Egypt in the battle of Actium.  A few years later, in 27 B.C., the Roman Senate conferred upon Octavian the title of Augustus Caesar.  Rome then ceased to be a Republic and became an Empire ruled by Emperors.  Roman emperors had begun to be deified, usurping the rightful place of Christ as King of the nations.

Seal #2: The Red Horse (193-282 A.D.)
The second seal brings forth the red horse of war, and Rome is in turmoil, having to fight many wars to put down revolts across the empire. The second seal covers the time after 193 AD, beginning with Emperor Commodus, whose debauchery and unjust rule caused a major shift in Roman politics. 

The time of relative peace and prosperity in Rome was broken in 193 A.D. after the murder of Emperor Commodus in 192 and the succession of three emperors in a single year. During the next 89-year period, Rome was plunged into one civil war after another.

In the next century, the empire would have 32 emperors and 27 pretenders resulting in a time of war and bloodshed.  The Red Horse beginning in 193 A.D. marked the shift from “civilian” power to military rule.

Seal #3: The Black Horse (250-300 A.D.)
The third seal brings forth the black horse of famine, and we see severe famines from 250-300 AD, mainly caused by war and other serious disruptions.

In the days of Valerian, the emperor of Rome from 253 A.D. to his Persian captivity in 260, the eastern part of the Roman Empire was in turmoil. The Goths came across the Black Sea from the north and invaded the cities of Asia Minor and Greece.

Soon afterward, the Persians invaded from the east, after destroying the Parthian Empire.  (This destruction of Parthia by the New Persian Empire is what drove the Israelite tribes (i.e. the ten northern tribes) living in that area to Armenia as refugees and then into Europe as pioneers.)

About the same time, Rome’s bread baskets, Sicily and Alexandria (Egypt), were ravaged by civil strife.  The Black Horse of famine was particularly devastating from 150-165 AD, and close to half of the people in the Empire died either from war or starvation.

Seal #4: The Fourth Seal (250-265 A.D.)
Death is the inevitable result of the famine that was revealed by the third living creature.  At least one-fourth of the population of the Roman Empire perished during this time from famine or famine-related causes, such as disease.  An estimate says that close to half of the population of the Roman Empire died of starvation in just a 15-year period!

The fourth seal not only brought death to numerous individuals in the Empire, but it also brought death to the Empire itself. After Diocletian came to power in 284, he divided the Roman Empire into East and West.  Though the empire was reunified by Constantine thirty years later, even that reunification was temporary. Diocletian thus set the stage for the empire’s permanent division a century later.

Galerius, the Caesar of the East, later induced Diocletian to persecute and to destroy the Church. The result of this legislation brought about the terrible “tribulation” upon the church (Rev. 2: 10) that lasted ten years (303-313 A.D.).

The two parts of the empire was later divided into four parts.  This division brought about a substantial increase in taxation.  The new taxes burdened the people further and added to the problem of famine that we saw earlier in the time of the third seal.

Summary Of The Four Horses
These four signs are patterns that are not necessarily limited to the decline and fall of Rome.  There have repetitions with a possible secondary fulfillment of sorts as of the present time.

This division of empire occurred just before its “Christian” phase under Constantine, beginning in 313.  When the persecution of Christians ceased with Constantine’s Edict of Toleration (313 A.D.), the church had almost unprecedented opportunity to spread the Gospel to all nations. By this time the church had a carnal mindset causing many leaders to seek political power and to destroy anyone who did not subscribe to their established creeds. Hence, for many centuries the opportunity to convert the world by the love of Christ and by the demonstration of His Spirit was largely lost.

Seal #5
The persecution, along with the earlier ten-year persecution under Diocletian, gave pause to the breaking of the seals to commemorate the souls whose blood had been poured out under the altar of sacrifice. Their voice is then heard crying out to God in the next few verses before the revelation of the three final seals.

Seal #6
Seal 6 depicts divine judgment upon the Roman Empire, which began in 310 A.D. when Constantine became Emperor.

This seal opens with “a great earthquake,” which, in prophecy, can represent either a literal quake or an event which emotionally or politically shakes the people and nations.
Such natural phenomena often depict political and social events. The sun represents the king, and the moon the political establishment who “reflect” (or carry out) the decrees of the king. After the change in government from Diocletian to Constantine, the moon represented (or included) church leaders who reflected the will of the new emperor.

This change in the political order of Rome also brought about a change in the church.  This is reflected in the change from the persecuted "Smyrna" church to the church of Pergamum which in turn runs parallel to the Old Testament "Balaam" church.

The sun being darkened depicts Constantine’s conquest of the Roman Empire and the beginning of the end of the pagan gods, particularly the god of the sun.  The great “earthquake” hit the entire political structure of the Roman Empire, and the pagan rulers fell from their positions of authority and were replaced by Christians. This was an unprecedented revolution in Roman history.

The moon is a symbol of the Church. This phase of prophecy began in 325 A.D. when the Church held its first Council at Nicea. The Emperor himself called for this Council in order to establish unity in the Church and in the empire itself after the controversy erupted over the nature of God and the trinity.

At the Nicean Council, some men believed that Jesus Christ was of the same essence as the Father while some said He was of like essence. Each side seemed more than willing to spill the blood of the other side over theoretical minutiae that really made no practical difference in one’s Christian walk.  The arrogance of men thinking that their carnal minds could precisely define an infinite God is truly astounding. They were willing to shed blood over the use or misuse of a single word shows the fanaticism of the carnally-minded rulers of the Church.

The Church came to be ruled by religious politics, and the Church Councils established “traditions of men” in the same way that the Jews had done in previous centuries.  The year 325 A.D. and the Council of Nicea marked the beginning  where the moon (Church) would begin to turn to blood.

Revelation 6:13: and the stars of the sky [ouranou, “heaven”] fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken by a great wind.

The stars were called metaphorically “the sons of God” (Job 38: 7).  John saw that the stars “fell to the earth.”  Among the casualties of the newly-empowered Church religion were the overcomers.  When the Church came to be ruled by the traditions of men, anyone having a genuine revelation from God was likely to find himself differing with official Church leaders both in doctrines and methods.  In like manner Jesus was always at odds with the religious leaders.  Anyone following His example, would always be among the “heretics” from that moment to the present day.

Revelation 6:14:  And the sky [ouranos, “heaven”] was split apart [“ parted asunder”] like a scroll when it is rolled up; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

Heaven being rolled up as a scroll speaks of the revelation of God being rolled up like a scroll or like closing a book.  As time passed, the Church stopped teaching the Bible to the average Christians. In 663-664 Pope Vitalian of Rome mandated that the Church liturgy itself be spoken only in Latin, depriving more people from understanding anything other than to remain subservient to the Church leaders. Any real understanding of the Word of God dropped to a very low level for more than a thousand years. The Bible became a closed book, and did not begin to reopen until Gutenberg’s use of the printing press in 1452 A.D.  His first project was the Bible in vernacular German.

Revelation 6:15-17:  And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;  (16)  And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:  (17)  For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

*****  Refer to Isaiah 2:19-21, Haggai 2:5-7, and John 3:19-21 for further enlightenment of Revelation 6:15-17.

Events that occurred during the early part of the 4th century became a judgment upon the rulers and other great people of pagan Rome.  6:15-17 is a graphic way of describing the fear among the wealthy and powerful pagans, who were apprehensive about their own future under Constantine and the other Christian Emperors who succeeded him.  In 380 Theodosius declared the Roman Empire to be “Christian.” In 395 he banned all pagan animal sacrifices, closed the pagan temples, and prohibited pagan rites.

Roman senate saw that their political future hinged on their conversion to the religion of the Emperor.  The problem was that many remained secret pagans even while they maintained membership in the Roman church. In time, their secret paganism added perversions of Christianity, i.e. the worship of Mary Magdalene.  Catholicism included an overt and a covert religion under the same roof, which has only recently been uncovered.  Faith in Christ was replaced by faith in the church. The light of revelation waned; the artificial light of men’s traditions replaced it. The moon was darkened and turned red like blood.

Another instance of the political earthquake was seen in the transfer of the Empire’s capital to Constantinople— a new city, free of pagan temples— that Constantine built on the Black Sea at the border of Europe and Asia. This transfer occurred in 330 A.D.

After Constantine’s death, his policy of religious toleration was reversed by his sons.  Both sides of the empire (east and west) endured various flavors of Christianity and paganism through the years, depending upon the emperor in charge.  Theodosius in the East and Gratian in the West agreed to make Orthodox Christianity the official religion of Rome in 380 A.D.

The political upheaval (earthquake) did not take place all at once, but over a period of time from 313-395 A.D.  In 410 Rome was overrun and sacked by the Goths, and for the next half century, the Western half of the Roman Empire gradually disintegrated.

If we were to place a time frame on the sixth seal, it actually takes us all the way to the time of the end and the establishment of the Kingdom of God. But the seventh seal, with its trumpets and bowls, must also be given time for fulfillment. The sixth seal does not conclude the book of Revelation. Hence, it is clear that while the persecutions of the sixth seal are ongoing in the background, other events are also taking place.

We must therefore conclude that the sixth seal largely runs concurrent with the seventh. There is no strict linear time line that divides the two into distinct historical phases. The sixth seal has more to do with the long-running war (persecution) in which the saints find themselves, while the seventh gives us a more definitive time line of events that focus on the downfall of Babylon.

The Church In The Wilderness


THE CHURCH IN THE WILDERNESS

12-14-2016

It has previously been written, in a past article, that the woman who fled to the wilderness, in Revelation 12, is the same woman in the wilderness sitting on the scarlet beast in Revelation 17.  Women in the Wilderness 


Revelation 12:14 NET  But the woman was given the two wings of a giant eagle so that she could fly out into the wilderness, to the place God prepared for her, where she is taken care of — away from the presence of the serpent — for a time, times, and half a time.

Revelation 12:17 NET  So the dragon became enraged at the woman and went away to make war on the rest of her children, those who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony about Jesus.

Considering the decision of the dragon to go and make war on her children i.e. those who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony about Jesus, there is a high probability the woman is the Church.  For somewhat over a thousand years after Revelation was drafted, the Church was primarily the Roman Church.

The early Church around Jerusalem came under great tribulation from the Temple leaders and were scattered around the Middle East and Southeast Europe beginning their time in the wilderness.  When prominence was vested in the church after it became a legal religion, power increased within the Roman seat and also later in the Eastern seat in Constantinople.  Eventually, all religious power rested within the Roman Church structure for all of Europe, Northern Africa, and many of the Eastern areas.

The First Wilderness Wandering

The Israelites had the Passover faith to pack up their belongings and leave Egypt under the leadership of Moses.  When they arrived at Sinai, God appeared to Moses as a flame or a fire with thunders and lightning.  Later, after Moses met with God on several occasions, the congregation was asked to listen to the voice of God as He desired to give them the laws and commandments.

At the sight and sound of the smoke, thundering, and lightning, the people were fearful and refused to allow God to appear and speak in their presence.  Their decision was for Moses to go up the mountain, listen to the words of God, and then repeat the information to them.  During Moses’ trip to listen to God on Sinai, the congregation molded a golden calf, which resulted in idolatry worship.

For some reason the Israelites lost the faith that took them out of Egypt.  From this point onward their lack of faith in the power of God continued in various ways and became a disaster for all the people except Caleb and Joshua.  The story spoken by ten of the twelve spies exploring the land spoke of giant men and the people became fearful and refused to enter the land.  As a result God assigned the congregation to wander in the wilderness for a total of forty years until all adults died except of course for Joshua and Caleb.

Exodus 20:18-21 NET  All the people were seeing the thundering and the lightning, and heard the sound of the horn, and saw the mountain smoking — and when the people saw it they trembled with fear and kept their distance. 

(19)  They said to Moses, "You speak to us and we will listen, but do not let God speak with us, lest we die."  

(20)  Moses said to the people, "Do not fear, for God has come to test you, that the fear of him may be before you so that you do not sin."  (21)  The people kept their distance, but Moses drew near the thick darkness where God was.

The Church in the Wilderness

Similar to the Israelites at Sinai, the Church people did not listen to God.  The major cause of this inability to listen to God was due to the Roman Church denying access to the Bible.  The Bible chained to the front of the Cathedral was written in Latin that no one could read except for the priests.  All vernacular translations of the scriptures were forbidden and only approved hints of the substance of the Bible were given only by the priests.  The result was similar to the “fake news” debacle occurring within the USA today.  Whatever the Roman Church reported as “Christian” was readily accepted by the majority as truth.

Israel’s lack of faith caused them to worship the golden calf shortly after failing to hear God for themselves. In fact, their shortage of faith during their entire wilderness wandering meant that most were led by the flesh, rather than by the Spirit. The flesh is always an inner “harlot” that leads us to worship the golden calf in some manner. On a corporate scale (including Protestant groups), the church has had the same problem throughout the entire church age.  The seven letters to the seven churches, at the beginning of the Revelation addresses the lack of faith mentality of the churches, from the beginning to the present.

Martin Luther posted his 95 thesis in 1517.  He translated the New Testament from Greek to a vernacular German in 1522 and the complete Bible, containing the Old and New Testaments in 1534.  The printing press was also developed during the same time period (brought to Eastern Europe by the Mongol invasion) which greatly aided the distribution of the Bible, which people could read for themselves in their own language for the first time since the initiation of the Roman Church.

Israel, prior to the division after the death of Solomon, brought forth David (with the assistance of God).  Although David greatly sinned with the Bathsheba affair (he later repented) he ruled Israel as a follower of God and His laws.  After the division, northern Israel was termed a harlot by Hosea.  Later, southern Judah was cast out for their idol worshipping harlotry and placed under the rule of Babylon, Persia, Greece, and finally Rome.  Afterwards, the majority of the Church have been disqualified from ruling the coming Kingdom of God due to their idolatry and lack of faith concerning the true workings of God.

In the days of Elijah, God said that only 7000 souls have not disqualified themselves by worshipping Baal.  In like manner, according to God through Paul, there is currently only a remnant that is free of the harlotry of idolatry.  This remnant, sometimes called the elect or the overcomers are the ones truly chosen to participate as leaders during the Kingdom of God. 

Romans 11:4-5 KJV  But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.  (5)  Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

In the Days of Noah

Immediately prior to the flood, Noah and his family entered the ark and the flood took them away.  In like manner, the return of Jesus will envision some taken away and others will be left.

Matthew 24:38-40 KJV  For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,  (39)  And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  (40)  Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

There are several interpretations for this passage and the majority of them are in error.  “They were eating and drinking, etc.” refers to the general population.  Noah and his family entered the ark during this event or time.  No one knew about the nature of rain or vast amounts of water coming forth from the ground, including Noah and his family.  Thus when the flood came, even though Noah was unaware of the process, the water took them away as they were aboard the ark.  The general population outside the ark, most likely knew much more about the origin of the water than Noah since they were watching it happen.

One so-called seer teaches that the people taken away in verse 40 are taken to hell.  Although a fiery hell of eternal punishment does not exist, it could mean they are terminated and sent to the grave which is the actual meaning of hell and Hades.  However, both scenarios are false.  Salvation, Hell, & Resurrection

The ones taken in verse 40 are the elect, the overcomers, or the remnant.  The popular explanatory word is the Latin translation of “rapture”.  Before they are taken, the remnant of the days of Elijah plus many other deceased elect will be caught up first and then the living overcomers will join them.

Clement Prophecy Concerning Donald Trump



KIM CLEMENT PROPHECY CONCERNING DONALD TRUMP

12-19-2016

Recently, I received an email concerning a video post on Sky Watch TV (the website of Tom Horne and company) concerning a prophecy supposedly given by God to Kim Clement.  I knew nothing about Kim Clement until a search and look at his website.  He appears to have an online ministry and is also a musician/entertainer.  I generally consider Sky Watch TV a website promoting science fiction type misunderstood and misrepresented Christian/Religious/Biblical subjects while promoting fear and concern to its readers.  This email would have been deleted without investigation under normal circumstances.  However, I was already aware of this Clement prophecy through a post by Dr. Stephen Jones of God’s Kingdom Ministries, therefore background information became an immediate interest.

The Bible has a test for prophets – to differentiate between the Godly and the false.  This test or warning can be found in several places but the basis is: 

If a prophet speaks in the name of God and the prediction is not fulfilled, then God has not spoken it.

Deuteronomy 18:20-22 NET  (20)  "But if any prophet presumes to speak anything in my name that I have not authorized him to speak, or speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die.  (21)  Now if you say to yourselves, 'How can we tell that a message is not from the LORD?' — (22)  whenever a prophet speaks in my name and the prediction is not fulfilled, then I have not spoken it; the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him."

That test is fairly clear and understandable.  Kim Clement claims to have been spoken to, in some manner, by God.  The transcript of the prophecy is given below and it is clear and precise in nature.  It is not vague as in a Nostradamus oracle.  If it occurs as predicted, then it will be a remarkable occurrence and definitely a sign that God is dismantling the Mystery, Babylon system, particularly the area concerning the destruction of the human race as a segment of the elite’s plan to create a one-world government.

Kim Clement’s prophecies regarding Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, with comments by Dr. Stephen Jones - Nov 17, 2016

The first section of the following prophecy given to Kim Clement was originally shared (by Clement) on April 20, 2013.  If this prophecy is actually true and the shared date is true, then sections were received over three years ago from today, well before Donald Trump even considered being a presidential candidate.  The comments by Stephen Jones were originally given as footnotes and they will appear at the appropriate place after the prophecy section they refer to.

There is a man by the name of Mr. Clark,1

1 Perhaps Sheriff Clark of Milwaukee

and there is also another man by the name of Donald.2

2 This was in 2007—long before Donald Trump made his announcement to run for president in 2015.

You are both watching me, saying, “Could it be that God is speaking to me?” Yes, he is! Somebody, just a few minutes before you came on the show, you went out and you took the American flag, and you said, “I’m proud of my nation.”3

3 Compare with the Motto: “Make America Great Again.”

You raised it up and God said, “You have been determined through your prayers to influence this nation. You’re watching me; you’re an influential person.” The Spirit of God says, “Hear the word of the prophet to you as a king,4

4 Donald means “world ruler.”

I will open that door that you prayed about.5 And when it comes time for the election, you will be elected.”

April 4, 2007
“This that shall take place shall be the most unusual thing,6

6 It was a most unusual election, full of surprises to the world.

8 Obviously, this was about the media reporting something about Trump.

9 This will be as great a miracle as the election of Donald Trump.

says the Lord….
For God said, “I will not forget 9/11. I will not forget what took place that day, and I will not forget the gatekeeper that watched over New York,10

10 This is a reference to Rudy Giuliani, who was mayor of NYC during the Twin Towers demolition in 2001. He will be given a cabinet post in the Trump administration.

who will once again stand and watch over this nation,” says the Spirit of God. “It shall come to pass that the man that I shall place in the highest office shall go in whispering My name. But God said, when he enters into the office, he will be shouting out by the power of the Spirit. For I shall fill Him with My Spirit when he goes into office, and there will be a praying man in the highest seat in your land.11

11 Clement had already prophesied this a few months earlier in greater detail. See the next word.

February 10, 2007
There will be a praying president, not a religious one.12

12 Trump has been a nominal Presbyterian in past years. He has only recently discovered the power and value of prayer.

For I will fool the people, says the Lord. I will fool the people, yes I will.13

13 The people were fooled by the polls prior to the election.

God says, the one that is chosen shall go in, and they shall say, “he has hot blood.”14

14 This is why so many people hate Trump.

For the Spirit of God says, yes, he may have hot blood, but he will bring the walls of protection on this country in a greater way, and the economy of this country shall change rapidly,15

15 Trump’s stated intention is to build a wall of protection around America and to rebuild the economy. This prophecy suggests that he will succeed in both of these goals, although the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is the main reason for his success.

says the Lord of hosts. Listen to the word of the Lord. God says, “I will put at your helm for two terms16

16 This is interesting. It means Trump will be elected again in 2020 and will be president until January of 2025.

a president that will pray, but he will not be a praying president when he starts. I will put him in office, and then I will baptize him with the Holy Spirit and My power,17

17 The wording of this prophecy, dated April 4, 2007, suggests that Trump will not receive this baptism until after he enters office on January 20, 2017. The earlier word given February 10, 2007 says, “I shall fill Him with My Spirit when he goes into office.” Putting the two words together suggests that he will be filled with the Holy Spirit very soon after he is inaugurated, if not at the same time.says the Lord of hosts.

January 14, 2006
And some of you said, when the Spirit said, “Hillary Clinton,” some of you shouted out, “yes!” God said, “I have already dealt with her heart, not to be president of this nation,18

18 Hillary was not to be elected president. Note that this prophecy is dated January 14, 2006. Everyone knew at the time that she was going to run for president, but she lost the Democratic Party’s nomination to Obama in 2008. So this word was reserved for 8 years later.

but to be president in a Christian world.19

19 This raises the question, “Can Jezebel be saved (in this life)?” The Old Testament pattern of Jezebel was that she was eaten by dogs, and that Ahab was killed by an arrow hitting him in the heart. There are often two ways, positive and negative, to fulfill a prophecy, because what is death under the Old Covenant is life under the New Covenant. For this reason, the 3,000 killed at Sinai (Exodus 32:28) in “the church in the wilderness” (Acts 7:38) can be compared to the 3,000 added to the church when the disciples came down from the upper room in Acts 2:41.

The “dogs” who ate Jezebel were literal, but in Scripture a dog is keleb (or Caleb, one of the overcomers) and signifies one who is faithful. A dog is a faithful companion. When we first discovered that dogs could be viewed as overcomers, we looked it up online and found that the American Kennel Association at that time (1996) recognized 153 breeds of dog. The number 153 means “sons of God,” because the numeric value of the phrase in Hebrew is precisely 153. This is also the meaning of the number in John 21:11, because once the disciples had learned to be “fishers of men,” they were able to bring the overcomers to Jesus.

As for the arrow in Ahab’s heart, arrows are sons (Psalm 127:4). It is possible that Bill Clinton, the modern Ahab, will also receive a message of Sonship in his heart that will bring death to his “old man” so that he may become a new creation in Christ.  Perhaps this is God’s “Mission Impossible.”

She will have a testimony second to none and will eventually come out with it and make declaration that Christ Jesus saved her marriage,20

20 Rumors are now circulating that Hillary will divorce Bill, since she lost the election and has no further need for him.

saved her child,21

21 Her child is Chelsea. Chelsea was the door opener for my (Jones) recent revelation for the prayer campaign called Free the Children, which we held on November 6, 2016.

and saved her life.22

22 Hillary Clinton is known to be quite ill and may not have survived even one term as president. This suggests that she might be divinely healed during this coming outpouring of the Spirit.

And when this happens, there will be a shaking in the Democratic Party so powerful.”23

23 Hillary’s conversion would certainly shake up the Democratic Party, which repudiated God during their recent convention. Imagine both Trump and Clinton being filled with the Spirit! That would certainly shake up the political world! Let us pray!

Comments
Everyone should always believe that God is in complete control of people and world events, because it is absolutely true – God is in control.  Therefore the fulfillment of this prophecy is entirely possible.  Prognosticators, confused Bible teachers, and people writing Biblical articles using inaccurate interpretations claim the USA will be destroyed in the near future.  This prediction of a decimated America mainly comes from misunderstood scriptural prophecies believing that America is the Mystery, Babylon. 

The concept or belief of literal, spiritual, and symbolic language contained in the Bible is controversial and highly debated.  A study would be quite lengthy and would convince very few people either way, however the spiritual language used in a symbolic manner will be identified as such.

AS AN EXAMPLE:  At the final collapse of Mystery, Babylon, Revelation 16:18 states there will be an unprecedented earthquake that will be greater than any that have occurred on the earth since creation.

Revelation 16:17-18 KJV  And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.  (18)  And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

Revelation 16:19-20
(19)  And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.  (20)  And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

Some unidentified city will be separated into three parts which the doomsayers claim will be New York City.  In addition every city of every nation will be leveled along with every island being moved from their current location to another, and every mountain in the world will become flattened out of existence.  Does anyone actually believe this is literal?  Afterwards, Jesus Christ will set up and rule the earth as the Kingdom of God.  If Revelation 16:19-20 is literal, there will be nothing to rule, and some people actually believe this as well.

If a spiritual symbolic answer is given and believed, the results would be quite different.  The voices, thunders, and lightnings could be considered the voice of God and the angels.  The earthquake is a violent shaking of the political, monetary, and thinking constructs of the world, not a literal earthquake. 

Some of this has already happened.  College students and Democratic Hillary supporters are crying, wailing, and gnashing their teeth in disbelief.  They are doing things and sayings things that are outrageous.  These same people are now claiming that Russia has hacked the Democratic party, Hillary, John Podesta, the Pentagon, and anything else they do not accept or understand, which is nonsense.  Some mainstream media institutions are claiming some news sites (mostly the ones telling the truth and not propagating the MSM lies) are fake news.

TTIP has failed in Europe and the USA.  Trump is convincing companies to reinvest and stay in the country.  Rothschild banks are closing or going bankrupt.  The USA and Europe militaries along with their Arab terrorist proxies are being defeated in the Syrian area.  Rothschild controlled leaders around the world are being defeated in elections or corruption charges. 

As of 12/8/2016, former and current black employees filed a lawsuit alleging racial discrimination against CNN, Turner Broadcasting and Time Warner, the company referring to Trump as a racist. Veteran supporters of the Standing Rock demonstration asked for forgiveness while on their knees. 

Recent events clearly demonstrate that Russia and Europe are on the threshold of a new era in the history of their relationship. Italian Prime minister Matteo Renzi, a globalist puppet was forced to resign yesterday with the globalists on the run all across Europe.

The world is beginning to change and Mystery, Babylon led by the Rothschild and their banking/corporation stooges are being defeated.  The beginning of the Kingdom of God may be closer than many think.
