Revelation 11:11 But after the three and a half days the breath[b] of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on.
13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon.
Ok... you know the song "them bones them bones them dry bones.... " Tennessee Ernie Ford use to sing it best. Well.... the footnotes of these verses says we should look at the following.Ezekiel 37:5 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath[a] enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’”
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.
9 Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’” 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
11 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’
So there will be zombies..... the dead will walk again.... the descendants of Jacob [Israel] will all get up and walk. I've been listening to the idiots in charge lately. Perhaps this is a metaphorical way to bring back the real meaning of Salvation.
I hear so much hate these days..... it doesn't seem to matter where the hate spewers are.... behind a pulpit.... or on a stage.... or at a press conference.... or in the Halls of the Senate.... the spewers who claim to be "Christian" spew everywhere. Doesn't it remind you of the Senate in the days of Jesus.... when Jesus was sentenced to death? Sometimes I think.... that poor guy has no clue what he's saying... he's just part of the plan playing a part.
The truth is.... if we have harmed someone... anyone... for any reason.... if we have harmed someone.... we will have to answer up.
I am now sometimes ashamed of what my family did. We owned slaves. We marched Cherokees. My family has been here in the US since 1691..... and a lot of us have spewed ever since.
God is the puppeteer..... and morons spew claiming they are spewing intelligence.... when they are so ignorant... they don't see World War III coming.
Now look at the last verse of the verses from Revelation 11.... an earthquake .... a tenth of the city collapsed.
Did you see the videos from Ukraine yesterday..... a tenth of the city collapsed in that one shot!
