AUDIENCE
The book of Revelation was written for, and addressed to, various angels.
2:1, 8, 12, 18; 3:1, 7, 14
DESCRIPTION OF JESUS
Jesus has white hair, eyes of fire, feet of brass, and has a sword sticking
out of his mouth. 1:13-16
John repeats his description of Jesus, saying he has eyes of fire and
feet of brass. 2:18
With eyes aflame, many crowns on his head, clothes dripping with blood, a
sword sticking out of his mouth, and a secret name, Jesus leads the faithful
into holy war. 19:12-15
This verse refers to Jesus as the "bright and morning star", as is Lucifer
in Is.14:12. So is Jesus Lucifer? 22:16
CREATIONIST PSEUDO-SCIENCE
The sixth seal is opened and there is a great earthquake, the sun becomes
black, and the moon red, the stars fall from heaven, and mountains and
islands move around. 6:12-14
"And there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it
fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters."
In the bible, stars are just little lights that can fall to the ground from
the sky. 8:10
The fifth trumpet sounds and another star falls from heaven. 9:1
The dragon's tail smacks down to earth one third of the stars. To the author
of Revelation, the stars are just little lights that can fall to the ground
from the sky. 12:4
NEW WASHING POWDER
Those that survive the great tribulation will get to wash their clothes in
the blood of the lamb. 7:14
