The same prophets who declared the Messiah would enter Jerusalem on a donkey, be betrayed by a friend for thirty pieces of silver, be deserted by all his friends, say or do nothing in protest, and have his hands and feet pierced before his enemies, also said that he will split the Mount of Olives with his feet, crush his enemies as an iron rod crushes pottery, destroy the devil, renovate and restore the earth back to its former beauty and perfection, and reign as King in Jerusalem. His return to this world will be with power and great glory, as startling and obvious as when lightning flashes across the sky. It will happen at some unknown hour when the world will be in the deepest darkness and on the verge of self destruction. He will personally bring light back into the world and cast the dark away, receiving for himself those who trusted in him enough to "love not their lives unto death." This exciting new look at the Book of Revelation shows how it can be divided into four clear sections, and if they are put side-by-side the mysteries and questions are easily answered. By using this new interpretation of Parallelism we can find the depth of meaning in the Seven Letters; the identities of the Two Witnesses, the Four Horsemen, the 144,000, Great Babylon, and Holy Jerusalem. This revolutionary new interpretation makes Revelation easy to understand and shows how it applies to the modern world and our everyday lives. It becomes obvious that parts of Revelation have been fulfilled at various times throughout history, and each time it had a lasting impact on the world, such as Fukushima Daiichi, Chernobyl, the Black Plague, and the Mongol Empire. These events are clearly foretold, and yet they have been ignored by the failed interpretations of the past, either Historicist, or Futurist, or Preterist.R.B.
