I am going to divulge information that i probably should not. Wether or not i am believed doesn't matter. What i say is in direct relevance to prophecy in the book of Daniel and Revelation.

Some folks read verses in prophecy and read the prophets talking about seas and winds and beasts and they think "huh? what a load of crap" and they totally disregard the text. i will say that i have always been drawn to prophecy, ever since i was a young boy. This thread is really more for those who wish to delve into the prophecies a little more deeply to try and garner a little more understanding of the text.

In regards to prophecy, the word "Seas" relates to peoples, multitudes and languages. The word "Wind(s)" relates to war(s) while the Beast(s) relates to kingdoms, nations, political systems (governments).
Many people often see the word "Beast" in revelation and automatically jump to think it is the Anti-Christ which is a false presumption. When prophecy speaks about Women it is speaking about religious beliefs or faiths and Days are actually refering to days as 1 day in prophetic language equals 1 year.

Ofcourse you would have to be a believer to make any sense out of` what you read but, there it is for those who have "eyes to see and ears to hear".

Interesting....

1. I would suggest that the word 'Wind(s)' relate to change, which yes, implies War being the strongest means of change.

2. 'Women', is to represent the basis, or fundamental basis for religious doctrines. But this is not directly what is being referenced, it's more of a reference to the 'Truth' that is behind the texts, void of any translation, explanation, or meaning in which man creates from it.

3. Whore, when this word is used, it is to represent said 'Women' AFTER mans interpretation. It is to represent the dogmas, the Heretics, and the over all misrepresentations and actions that may result from these things when placed into action.

4. I will agree with you interpretation of the Beast for the most part, but in order to truly address that notion, I would need specific scripture in which you would like to discuss. For it has a transcendent meaning as well, when applied to the psychology and sociology of man.

5. As far as the 1 day representing 1 year, I believe is false, and is actually to represent a integer of time in which can be described by the relation between Mass and Time itself, as well as being relative to certain astrological markers.
For further explanation of these, search for Joseph Smith(founder of Mormon church), and his interpretations in regards to the pyramids, the cubit, and the measure of space and time itself.

If there's anything in particular that you would like to discuss, let me know. I will try my best to keep up with the thread, but if I'm absent for an extended period of time, go ahead and private message me, and I will respond ASAP.

This is definitely spent much time researching, and pondering. Although I can't recite anything from the books, except for the common stuff, I'm fairly well acquainted with the entire body of texts. I've tried multiple times to participate in, in-depth conversations about the topic, but haven't been successful yet. I've had a lot of run-ins with trolls and what not, and often find myself explaining off-topic points, especially those that question if the texts should be taken as any value in the first place.

The Bible has some pretty neat prophecies.....i wonder of the christian people take any note of other prophecy?
The Hopi for instance, have some.....also they claim to still have their ten commandment stones or tablets,having preserved them through the ages.
Prophecies of many different non christian peoples have their corelations with biblical prophecy as well as their differences....do the christian accept any non biblical prophecy?
Say Nostradamus? or other?
Does it occur to anyone that such prophecies may be the result of forms of remote viewing?
jst asking

Not all prophecy is a year for a day, the last and furthest reaching was the 2300 evening mornigs of Dan. 8:, then we go on into Dan 9: and find the 70 weeks of yrs is "determined" taken off and is the prophecy that Jesus died in the middle of that 70'th week of years. The 2300 then goes on 1810 years further down in time.

Any after that are literal time. Why? Not enough time left to be in years.
