Forget about the Book of Daniel and the Revelation of John.

Ultimately, what it comes down to is the Revelations and Prophecies I have received.


Michael, you really want to think about this bit. Right at the end of Revelation is a warning, about adding ... ?

It's also where you become utterly discredited.

Well, first of all, you might want to take up this issue with any one of the hundreds or thousands of Christian ministers or theologians who have written books (a theologian by the name of Elizabeth Schussler-Fiorenza, for example, actually received a $50,000 grant to study the Revelation of John and write a book), published video tapes, written journal articles, etc. etc. etc. about their interpretations of the Revelation of John; because, if what you are saying is accurate, then every single red cent of the millions or tens of millions of dollars that they have made through their interpretation constitutes "theft by deception".

Needless to say, however, they are much too busy making all of their money with such interpretations than to get on a discussion group like this to open themselves up to such accusations.

But, secondly, and not surprisingly, this does not mean what the consciousness of the 'thinker' speculates that it means:

The Vision of the "Son of man", which was received by John in order to write the Revelation of John in the first place, is referred to as the Vision of Knowledge in the Thanksgiving Hymns of the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Someone who receives the "Vision of Knowledge" and, on the basis of that Vision, describes the symbols of the Revelation of John in the terminology of different dimensions of consciousness is not "adding" anything which was not already inherent to the Vision in the first place. Their Source is precisely the same.

"Adding" refers to the attempts by the consciousness of the 'thinker'--a consciousness which cannot possibly have access to the same Knowledge as is Revealed through the Revelation of the "resurrection" or the Vision of the "Son of man"--to interpret that Revelation in accordance with the thoughts of the consciousness of the 'thinker'.

And, just as there is no middle ground between "cold" and "hot"--or Jesus will VOMIT you out of his mouth--there is also no middle ground between the consciousness 'Created by and in the image of God' and the 'fallen' consciousness consisting of the consciousness of the "self" and the 'thinker'...

No matter how much you may wish that there were.
