"Now that we have Christ as our Savior
and mediator how much is to be gained by focusing
on these prophecies?"
My answer is: 2 Timothy 3:16&17 "All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Christ maybe our savior, but we are asked to pick up our own crosses. He can't wipe the milk from our chins forever. If you insist on treading on a slippery slope, it is to be expected.
Also from 2Tim, Chapter Three, Verse Thirteen: "But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived."
Remember too, that the book of Revelations uses the same prophetic language as Ezekiel and Isaiah. These older prophecies are essentially here to help up understand Revelations.
The whole Bible is about Christ, never put off certain parts of the Bible just because of "grace" saved by Christ. It doesn't mean that he died for you its ok to not follow some parts of the Bible, who said that? That's already false teachings. 1 Samuel 3:21...says the lord will reveal himself through his word. To depend on Christ and not read his word is like eating food with no nutritional value you'll get nothing. As Christ believers we should take into consideration the whole Bible and not be in the flesh to just listen to what is good to the ears.
Is it because the creatures have wings that Henry
ascribes to them their angelic presence? I'm always baffled as to how theologians receive these
insights. Now that we have Christ as our Savior
and mediator how much is to be gained by focusing
on these prophecies?
