    You could look at it that way, or…

    Revelation 13:3

    One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast.

      It’s… horrifying how many signs of Revelation are valid to Donald Trump…

      “The rivers will be joined to the lake!” - Mar-A-Lago literally meaning “River to Lake”

        That’s because the book of Revelations is really just a big collection of vague scary sounding things. You can pull whatever interpretation you want out of it.

        No, it means “Sea to lake”

        The sentences of the bible are written in a certain context. If you remove it from this context and try really hard to make connections, you can loosen it’s definition enough and distort it’s meaning enough to fit anything you want

      IMO this Interpretation is straight up incorrect

      This is a symptom of “If you want it hard enough, you can find anything where there is nothing”

      but the fatal wound had been healed.

      Hello!? There was no fatal wound. And it was not healed. The text doesn’t fit.

      Supposedly god put those words in the mind of a Christian man 2000 years ago. He wrote it down. Several other people copied the text by hand. The original works were lost. When the bible was translated to english it was based on the copied content from other translations in German, latin, and Hebrew. No translation was made from the original language since there’s no source available.

      Why is god so fuckeng sloppy with the text that literally represents his existence and the only path of salvation of all human souls?? (people who he supposedly love)

      So trump is the beast the whole world is following. Got it. I’m sure to his followers he’s the literal Messiah
