Lots and lots of rain and storms for Oklahoma these past couple of weeks, and more to come! Quakes continue (which at this point is no surprise). Nepal has been devastated by a 7.6 quake followed by numerous after shocks including a 7.3. I have been reading Vince Bugliosi and Curt Gentry's 'Helter Skelter'. I usually don't like reading true crime books, but this one interested me for a variety of reasons. One is the cult leader Charles Manson, whom at one time I only considered to be crazy but now believe he was demonically influenced and was likely to be a minor antichrist. There was obviously nothing godly about him. Also, I was interested in Manson's erroneous yet frighteningly specific views of the end of the world and Helter Skelter (race war he believed would be fought between the whites and blacks and ultimately won by the blacks). I have been analyzing Revelation 9 as well as the music of the Beatles using his method, and while I don't see where he got his opinions regarding the "revelations" in the music of the Beatles, his interpretation of Revelation 9 is rather interesting-almost convincing, but again demonstrates the Rorschach phenomenon of the Book of Revelations that almost anything can be taken from it with enough ingenuity and imagination.
On the same note about our weather. Today marks the second anniversary (I cant believe it has been two years already!) since the F5 tornado destroyed my home town of Moore (for the second time). Just a few weeks ago, Moore was once again devastated by a tornado, leading me to declare Moore as "Moore-nado alley". Yesterday, multiple tornadoes touched down in both Oklahoma and Texas.
"
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place." (NKJV Revelation 1:1)
How long is "shortly"? Some of the events in Revelation may have already taken place. Some can be argued to be taking plane NOW, and some are yet to be seen. I believe that overall the
Book of Revelation is a spiritual/historical document of events on the spiritual background of the events of the Bible.
